MANILA, Philippines – International sports news are abuzz with the reported hot item that there would be a Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios boxing bout on November 24. The fight would be held at the Cotai Arena at the Venetian Resort Hotel, Macau, reportedly.
Manny Pacquiao, in spite of his two previous loses to American Timothy Bradley and Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez is still considered as a unique fighter who was never equaled in this era with regards to his fierce and pound for pound fist power.
Would the Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios fight be the Pacman’s road to redemption? Sports fans, who watched only Manny Pacquiao’s fight are thrilled that he is going back to boxing. Apparently, his wife, Jinky, and his mother are against his plans, but they respect his decision.
Aside from boxing, Manny Pacquiao is also an actor and a singer, trying to please his fans in any way he can. The man thinks of his fans first, that was why he felt sad when he lost to Marquez, not because he felt sorry for himself, but because he felt bad when he saw his fans crying.
Marquez had decided not to fight Pacquiao anymore to preserve his record of the boxer who had knocked out Pacquiao in his time.
His decision, however, seems to be unfair because Pacquiao had always given him the chance whenever he asked for it. At the back of Marquez’s mind, he might have known that Pacquiao would avenge his defeat, and would knock him cold in a rematch.
The welterweight bout would, may be, determine if Manny Pacquiao would still continue with his boxing career or focus on his political aspirations; a seat in the senate and the presidency perhaps?
