00:00:04,890 --> 00:00:06,360
[Narrator] Throughout history,

4
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,963
boxing has provided a
haven for the downtrodden.

6
00:00:11,010 --> 00:00:13,410
Beyond a means of entertainment,

7
00:00:13,410 --> 00:00:16,050
the sport fosters discipline,

8
00:00:16,050 --> 00:00:19,563
concentration, and self-determination.

9
00:00:20,430 --> 00:00:23,673
Disengaging the fighter from
the sins of the streets.

10
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,380
In the essence of boxing lies opportunity.

11
00:00:28,380 --> 00:00:31,920
Opportunity to face tough
times with resilience,

12
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,650
to improve one's quality of life

13
00:00:34,650 --> 00:00:38,970
and to chase one's dreams
with self-confidence.

14
00:00:38,970 --> 00:00:41,700
Boxing requires sacrifice.

15
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:44,613
But for Pacquiao, it was survival.

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,110
Not a god, but worshiped by millions,

17
00:00:49,110 --> 00:00:52,350
Pacquiao has risen from
the depths of poverty

18
00:00:52,350 --> 00:00:55,203
to stand as a potential
leader of his people.

19
00:00:56,501 --> 00:00:58,920
Though not shy from controversy,

20
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,640
Pacquiao arose as a
symbol for the powerless.

21
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,760
Seeing the desperation
of our people made

22
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,550
me realize everything that I need

23
00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:10,620
to because nobody will fight

24
00:01:10,620 --> 00:01:13,803
for them sincerely, wholeheartedly,

25
00:01:14,850 --> 00:01:16,150
and that's Manny Pacquiao.

26
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,680
[Narrator] This is
the remarkable journey

27
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,760
of one of boxing's most
unstoppable forces.

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,760
This is the story of
Manny The PacMan Pacquiao.

29
00:01:29,009 --> 00:01:31,759
(dramatic music)

30
00:01:33,992 --> 00:01:37,075
[Crowd] Manny! Manny! Manny! Manny!

31
00:01:38,312 --> 00:01:43,312
[Narrator] February, 2007,
Pacquiao sends shock waves

32
00:01:44,130 --> 00:01:46,590
through the boxing and political worlds,

33
00:01:46,590 --> 00:01:49,320
announcing his campaign to run for a seat

34
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,173
in the Philippine House
of Representatives.

35
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,210
Local officials of the
city of General Santos saw

36
00:01:57,210 --> 00:01:59,880
an opportunity to bridge their interests

37
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,223
with those in the Philippine government.

38
00:02:04,530 --> 00:02:07,710
Political persuasion pushed Manny to run,

39
00:02:07,710 --> 00:02:11,310
but he ultimately lost to
the incumbent representative

40
00:02:11,310 --> 00:02:13,630
from the Nationalist People's Coalition

41
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:17,107
who stated, more than anything,

42
00:02:17,107 --> 00:02:21,237
"People weren't prepared to
lose him as their boxing icon."

43
00:02:23,347 --> 00:02:25,050
(gentle music)

44
00:02:25,050 --> 00:02:27,360
But Manny The PacMan Pacquiao,

45
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,700
as he's shown throughout his career,

46
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:33,000
doesn't back down when faced with a fight.

47
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,760
For Manny, the battle to effect change

48
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,220
in the community he
fought so hard to survive

49
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:41,793
in would be prolonged and problematic.

50
00:02:45,390 --> 00:02:48,150
The fight that meant more
to him now than entering

51
00:02:48,150 --> 00:02:51,810
the ring was to create jobs, educate,

52
00:02:51,810 --> 00:02:56,370
and provide medicine for the
poorest in Filipino's society.

53
00:02:56,370 --> 00:02:59,760
Just as he had portrayed
in his ring appearances,

54
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,163
when the pain hit, Manny hit back harder.

55
00:03:04,163 --> 00:03:06,913
(dramatic music)

56
00:03:27,453 --> 00:03:30,036
(gentle music)

57
00:03:37,832 --> 00:03:40,665
Kibawe, Bukidnon, the Philippines.

58
00:03:41,871 --> 00:03:44,220
(gentle music)

59
00:03:44,220 --> 00:03:46,020
Amidst the rolling hills,

60
00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:48,270
mountain peaks, and dense landscape

61
00:03:48,270 --> 00:03:52,233
in Southern Philippines lies
the municipality called Kibawe,

62
00:03:53,070 --> 00:03:57,123
where the quality of life
is far from prosperous.

63
00:03:58,243 --> 00:04:00,660
(soft music)

64
00:04:00,660 --> 00:04:05,660
December 17th, 1978, just
over a week before Christmas,

65
00:04:07,830 --> 00:04:11,460
Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao Senior began

66
00:04:11,460 --> 00:04:15,060
his ascent to the peak
of the boxing world.

67
00:04:15,060 --> 00:04:18,630
Born into a family
struggling to make ends meet,

68
00:04:18,630 --> 00:04:22,500
Manny's start to life was
far from trouble-free.

69
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:24,990
Eating as little as one meal a day

70
00:04:24,990 --> 00:04:28,053
before using the streets as his pillow.

71
00:04:29,070 --> 00:04:31,620
Poverty-stricken, his father once had

72
00:04:31,620 --> 00:04:35,340
to cook the family dog to
feed the starving family.

73
00:04:35,340 --> 00:04:37,290
Though not done intentionally,

74
00:04:37,290 --> 00:04:39,963
as the dog had had a moment of misfortune.

75
00:04:41,250 --> 00:04:43,650
The plight of poverty pushed Manny

76
00:04:43,650 --> 00:04:47,130
to secure a way out for his family.

77
00:04:47,130 --> 00:04:51,330
His challenging start, no
doubt, provided the thick skin

78
00:04:51,330 --> 00:04:56,010
and toughness necessary
to rise through the ranks.

79
00:04:56,010 --> 00:04:59,730
Before long, Pacquiao's
fists are fundamental

80
00:04:59,730 --> 00:05:03,090
to his survival on the
streets of General Santos

81
00:05:03,090 --> 00:05:05,463
where his parents decide to raise him.

82
00:05:06,510 --> 00:05:11,103
Boxing became the key to
his family's survival.

83
00:05:13,770 --> 00:05:18,630
February 11th, 1990, Tokyo, Japan.

84
00:05:18,630 --> 00:05:23,250
At just 12 years old, one
particular heavyweight clash

85
00:05:23,250 --> 00:05:25,710
motivated Manny's meteoric mount

86
00:05:25,710 --> 00:05:29,130
to arguably the greatest
pound for pound fighter

87
00:05:29,130 --> 00:05:31,440
in the sports history.

88
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,903
Tyson versus Buster Douglas.

89
00:05:36,030 --> 00:05:38,130
The spectacle of one of the world's

90
00:05:38,130 --> 00:05:42,210
most significant upsets in
sporting history symbolized

91
00:05:42,210 --> 00:05:44,670
the redeeming qualities of boxing,

92
00:05:44,670 --> 00:05:46,920
especially for those who faced no way

93
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,383
out in their own fight for survival.

94
00:05:50,220 --> 00:05:52,170
The fight had a profound effect

95
00:05:52,170 --> 00:05:54,990
on an impressionable, young Manny.

96
00:05:54,990 --> 00:05:58,350
Overcoming 42 to one odds and a rise

97
00:05:58,350 --> 00:06:02,523
from the canvas in round
eight, Douglas made history.

98
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,570
After a year of training
in a makeshift home gym

99
00:06:06,570 --> 00:06:10,050
with his uncle, he begins
to make a name for himself

100
00:06:10,050 --> 00:06:13,253
in the local circuit of
the Southern Philippines.

101
00:06:13,253 --> 00:06:14,970
(soft music)

102
00:06:14,970 --> 00:06:18,090
At this time, while attending sixth grade,

103
00:06:18,090 --> 00:06:21,630
Pacquiao's parents separated
after his mother discovered

104
00:06:21,630 --> 00:06:25,920
that her husband was involved
in an extramarital affair.

105
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,710
Looking for a way to support his family,

106
00:06:28,710 --> 00:06:32,400
the fighter, forced to
use his fists to survive,

107
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,043
embarked on a rags to riches journey.

108
00:06:38,910 --> 00:06:41,610
Regarded as one of the top junior boxers

109
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:43,920
in the country's southern provinces,

110
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,840
but with little support,

111
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:49,170
a malnourished Manny
sneaked onto a ferry bound

112
00:06:49,170 --> 00:06:52,683
for the capital in
search of a better life.

113
00:06:55,590 --> 00:06:59,103
The city of Manila, the
capital of the Philippines.

114
00:07:00,630 --> 00:07:03,240
Working in construction
while continuing to live

115
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,723
on the streets hardened his resolve.

116
00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:11,070
He endured hunger to send what little

117
00:07:11,070 --> 00:07:13,500
he had earned back to his mother.

118
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:16,050
But it wasn't long until his admission

119
00:07:16,050 --> 00:07:19,533
into the Philippine national
amateur boxing team,

120
00:07:20,910 --> 00:07:25,080
providing a route off the
streets he'd lived on for so long

121
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,903
and into housing supplied
by the government.

122
00:07:29,940 --> 00:07:33,210
Lying about his age, and
with an amateur record

123
00:07:33,210 --> 00:07:37,290
of reportedly 60 wins and four losses,

124
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:40,983
Manny applied to become
a professional at 16.

125
00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:47,250
Standing at four foot 11 inches
and weighing just 98 pounds,

126
00:07:47,250 --> 00:07:49,860
the young boxer admitted
that in order to make

127
00:07:49,860 --> 00:07:53,130
the 105-pound light flyweight limit,

128
00:07:53,130 --> 00:07:55,953
he had to put weights in his pockets.

129
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,900
After taking 11 victories from 11 bouts

130
00:08:00,900 --> 00:08:04,080
in a dominant display
throughout the division,

131
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,650
Manny raised his weight to 113 pounds

132
00:08:07,650 --> 00:08:09,603
and entered the Flyweight Division.

133
00:08:12,810 --> 00:08:16,890
Undefeated but disadvantaged
due to wearing heavier gloves

134
00:08:16,890 --> 00:08:20,160
than his opponent because
of a missed weight limit,

135
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:25,160
Manny took to the canvas,
squaring up against Torrecampo.

136
00:08:25,423 --> 00:08:28,373
[Announcer] Torrecampo has
carried the fight to Pacquiao.

137
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,353
[Announcer] Pacquiao.

138
00:08:30,353 --> 00:08:32,419
[Announcer] He's out.
He's out. It's over.

139
00:08:32,419 --> 00:08:33,760
[Announcer] Oh, my gosh. One punch.

140
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,099
[Announcer] It's over. It's over

141
00:08:35,099 --> 00:08:36,030
[Narrator] Manny Pacquiao cannot get up.

142
00:08:36,030 --> 00:08:37,470
[Narrator] The discipline displayed

143
00:08:37,470 --> 00:08:39,810
in previous fights faded.

144
00:08:39,810 --> 00:08:44,670
Complacency driven by success
and the trappings of money,

145
00:08:44,670 --> 00:08:46,980
namely gambling and alcohol,

146
00:08:46,980 --> 00:08:50,493
sent the mentally
unprepared boxer tumbling.

147
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,380
Manny suffered his first
defeat in 12 ring visits.

148
00:08:55,380 --> 00:08:59,460
The setback proved to be a
defining moment in his career.

149
00:08:59,460 --> 00:09:01,530
Setting his failure aside,

150
00:09:01,530 --> 00:09:05,670
the explosive fighter
administered KO after KO,

151
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:10,173
knocking out 11 of his 12
next opponents undefeated,

152
00:09:11,100 --> 00:09:14,220
earning the Oriental and
Pacific Boxing Federation's

153
00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:16,503
Flyweight title in the process.

154
00:09:17,910 --> 00:09:21,090
After just three years
at a professional level,

155
00:09:21,090 --> 00:09:23,550
he was now a world champion.

156
00:09:23,550 --> 00:09:26,790
Triumphing at his first
championship conquest

157
00:09:26,790 --> 00:09:30,780
was the first stepping stone
to the more lucrative purses

158
00:09:30,780 --> 00:09:34,109
and a more secure life for his family.

159
00:09:34,109 --> 00:09:38,160
(referee speaking in foreign language)

160
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,680
[Narrator] Suffering
only his second defeat,

161
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:45,023
he relinquished his title to
Singsurat in September, 1999,

162
00:09:46,170 --> 00:09:48,931
having retained it five months prior.

163
00:09:48,931 --> 00:09:53,931
(announcer speaking in foreign language)

164
00:09:54,349 --> 00:09:57,266
(soft piano music)

165
00:10:01,230 --> 00:10:02,820
[Narrator] But ventured towards the end

166
00:10:02,820 --> 00:10:06,210
of the millennium with a new
challenge on the horizon,

167
00:10:06,210 --> 00:10:10,620
the WBC International
Super-Bantamweight title.

168
00:10:10,620 --> 00:10:14,250
Manny put the weight on
and laced up his gloves,

169
00:10:14,250 --> 00:10:16,320
skipping both the Super Flyweight

170
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,840
and Bantamweight divisions.

171
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,468
[Announcer] Manny Pacquiao is fighting

172
00:10:20,468 --> 00:10:24,270
for the for the first time
in a higher weight category.

173
00:10:24,270 --> 00:10:25,103
Pacquiao-

174
00:10:25,103 --> 00:10:27,480
[Narrator] A day
after his 21st birthday,

175
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,280
Pacquiao looked to bounce back

176
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,450
from his title defeat with
a victory over Jamili.

177
00:10:33,450 --> 00:10:37,530
Another loss would be an
almost insurmountable setback

178
00:10:37,530 --> 00:10:40,440
in reaching to prodigious purses.

179
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,460
In trademark style,
Pacquiao came out swinging,

180
00:10:44,460 --> 00:10:47,130
diminishing the reach of Jamili.

181
00:10:47,130 --> 00:10:47,963
One.

182
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,033
Two.

183
00:10:52,290 --> 00:10:55,290
Three knock downs in the second signaled

184
00:10:55,290 --> 00:10:57,690
the end of Jamili's career.

185
00:10:57,690 --> 00:11:02,148
But for Pacquiao, his was in its infancy.

186
00:11:02,148 --> 00:11:05,065
(soft piano music)

187
00:11:06,330 --> 00:11:09,090
The knockout in round
two laid the foundations

188
00:11:09,090 --> 00:11:12,360
for his opportunity of fighting overseas,

189
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,570
retaining the WBC Super-bantamweight title

190
00:11:15,570 --> 00:11:18,240
for the next five bouts catapulted

191
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,044
his brand into recognition.

192
00:11:21,044 --> 00:11:23,520
(soft piano music)

193
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,190
One primary key to his success

194
00:11:26,190 --> 00:11:28,680
is head trainer, Freddie Roach.

195
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:32,820
In 1995, following an early
retirement as a fighter

196
00:11:32,820 --> 00:11:36,540
and assistant to legendary
trainer, Eddie Futch,

197
00:11:36,540 --> 00:11:39,120
Freddie set up his own boxing club,

198
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,510
the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood.

199
00:11:42,510 --> 00:11:45,960
Wanting an American coach
for his western debut,

200
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,840
Bob Arum gave him Roach's address,

201
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,513
and the rest is boxing history.

202
00:11:52,364 --> 00:11:54,960
(journalists chattering)

203
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:55,853
[Journalist] Beautiful.

204
00:11:57,060 --> 00:12:01,743
[Narrator] June 23rd,
2001, Las Vegas, Nevada.

205
00:12:04,170 --> 00:12:06,960
Stepping into Enrique Sanchez's shoes

206
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,960
after only two weeks notice
and 34 fights throughout Asia,

207
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,130
Manny finally had his chance

208
00:12:14,130 --> 00:12:17,310
to dance in the spotlights of Vegas,

209
00:12:17,310 --> 00:12:21,030
a substitution most boxers wouldn't risk.

210
00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:24,960
Ledwaba, the IBF
Super-bantamweight champion,

211
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,463
stood in his way.

212
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:31,590
Unknown to the broadcaster, HBO,

213
00:12:31,590 --> 00:12:35,553
and the commentators, no
one was expecting an upset.

214
00:12:36,750 --> 00:12:40,740
Taking to the canvas in his
iconic highlighted trim,

215
00:12:40,740 --> 00:12:44,010
Pacquiao delivered a
box office performance,

216
00:12:44,010 --> 00:12:46,620
flooring the champion three times

217
00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:49,260
before sending him to the mat for good

218
00:12:49,260 --> 00:12:51,229
in a round six technical knockout.

219
00:12:51,229 --> 00:12:54,029
[Announcer] Almost resignation
in the eyes of Ledwaba.

220
00:12:56,100 --> 00:12:57,720
[Narrator] Overcoming the longer reach

221
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,090
with his unmatched speed and movement

222
00:13:00,090 --> 00:13:03,450
to win his second major
boxing world title,

223
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:06,090
this time in a different class.

224
00:13:06,090 --> 00:13:08,460
[Announcer] And just
takes it apart with power.

225
00:13:08,460 --> 00:13:10,940
Yeah, that's what we're talking about!

226
00:13:10,940 --> 00:13:13,860
[Narrator] At the pinnacle
of his career so far,

227
00:13:13,860 --> 00:13:18,360
the bout earned the rags
to riches boxer $40,000,

228
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,603
an amount he could only
dream of back home in Manila.

229
00:13:22,590 --> 00:13:24,750
Under the guidance of Freddie Roach,

230
00:13:24,750 --> 00:13:27,840
Manny went on to defend
his title four times

231
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,580
in the next two years,

232
00:13:29,580 --> 00:13:32,973
cementing his place in the
upper echelons of the sport.

233
00:13:33,870 --> 00:13:38,673
At just 25 years old, Manny
was far from finished.

234
00:13:40,980 --> 00:13:44,520
In 2005, a super featherweight bout billed

235
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,110
as Coming With Everything
against Morales meant Manny had

236
00:13:49,110 --> 00:13:51,570
to move further up the weights.

237
00:13:51,570 --> 00:13:54,030
The vacant WBC International

238
00:13:54,030 --> 00:13:57,780
and IBA Super Featherweight
titles are at stake.

239
00:13:57,780 --> 00:14:00,150
After failing to defeat Barrera,

240
00:14:00,150 --> 00:14:03,840
Morales, the underdog,
had a point to prove.

241
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:05,422
I'm fair but I'm firm. Touch 'em up.

242
00:14:05,422 --> 00:14:06,810
Go! Let's go!

243
00:14:06,810 --> 00:14:08,299
[Narrator] It's Pacquiao who is bleeding

244
00:14:08,299 --> 00:14:09,540
from his right eye.

245
00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:11,100
Bleeding big time.

246
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:13,050
And if that was all
from Morales' left hook,

247
00:14:13,050 --> 00:14:14,340
or maybe a head butt.

248
00:14:14,340 --> 00:14:16,320
[Narrator] An
unintentional clash of heads

249
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,890
in round five caused a
cut above Manny's eye,

250
00:14:19,890 --> 00:14:22,053
affecting the latter half of the fight.

251
00:14:23,250 --> 00:14:25,890
Controlling the pace of
the battle throughout

252
00:14:25,890 --> 00:14:29,310
and with a favorable
scorecard entering the 12th,

253
00:14:29,310 --> 00:14:31,920
Morales switches to southpaw,

254
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,890
stubbornly mimicking Manny's tactics.

255
00:14:34,890 --> 00:14:36,000
[Announcer] He switches southpaw

256
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,830
and lands a couple of right hands.

257
00:14:37,830 --> 00:14:39,300
Puts himself in harm's way though

258
00:14:39,300 --> 00:14:42,240
against Pacquiao's left
hand and takes a big one.

259
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,073
[Narrator] I don't know

260
00:14:43,073 --> 00:14:44,095
why he would fight Pacquiao with southpaw.

261
00:14:44,095 --> 00:14:44,928
[Announcer] Why in the world
would he switch southpaw?

262
00:14:44,928 --> 00:14:47,913
[Announcer] And the winner
by unanimous decision.

263
00:14:49,019 --> 00:14:51,600
(announcer speaking in foreign language)

264
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:52,980
[Narrator] Going the distance,

265
00:14:52,980 --> 00:14:55,680
Morales is unanimously crowned victor

266
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,280
in a fight voted the
second best of the year.

267
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,190
His third career loss sowed the seed

268
00:15:02,190 --> 00:15:04,200
of what is widely considered one

269
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,383
of the greatest boxing
trilogies of all time.

270
00:15:08,730 --> 00:15:11,913
November 18th, 2006,

271
00:15:13,230 --> 00:15:15,960
the final showdown between the titans,

272
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:20,681
billed as The Grand Finale
saw a dominant display.

273
00:15:20,681 --> 00:15:21,980
(crowd cheering)

274
00:15:21,980 --> 00:15:23,788
[Announcer] Round one begins.

275
00:15:23,788 --> 00:15:26,250
Will it be a boxing
match, will it be a brawl?

276
00:15:26,250 --> 00:15:28,230
Will it be a little of both?

277
00:15:28,230 --> 00:15:30,930
[Narrator] Pacquiao quickly
made Morales backtrack

278
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:34,260
on comments made following
the previous fight.

279
00:15:34,260 --> 00:15:36,690
Now he was feeling the punches.

280
00:15:36,690 --> 00:15:38,400
[Announcer] Hard right
hand stung Morales.

281
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,720
Pacquiao is all over it.

282
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,140
Morales slightly staggered
after that last left hand,

283
00:15:43,140 --> 00:15:44,550
and down he goes!

284
00:15:44,550 --> 00:15:47,070
Solid left hand shot by Pacquiao.

285
00:15:47,070 --> 00:15:49,830
[Narrator] His flurry of
powerful combinations put

286
00:15:49,830 --> 00:15:53,040
the Mexican fighter on
the canvas three times,

287
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,220
ending the spectacle in the third round,

288
00:15:56,220 --> 00:15:59,850
leaving Morales to
question his retirement.

289
00:15:59,850 --> 00:16:02,160
Without the explosive trilogy,

290
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,220
the career of one of
boxing's all time greats

291
00:16:05,220 --> 00:16:08,215
may never have come to fruition.

292
00:16:08,215 --> 00:16:11,548
(gentle dramatic music)

293
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,666
May, 2007.

294
00:16:18,666 --> 00:16:21,999
(gentle dramatic music)

295
00:16:23,730 --> 00:16:27,120
At 28 years old, few Filipinos were held

296
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,420
in higher esteem than the PacMan.

297
00:16:30,420 --> 00:16:33,030
Not only was he an international success

298
00:16:33,030 --> 00:16:35,190
and face of the country,

299
00:16:35,190 --> 00:16:38,580
but he also symbolized hope to millions.

300
00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:40,530
Hope that they could one day make

301
00:16:40,530 --> 00:16:44,280
it out of the hardship
he had once endured.

302
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,460
Though he still continued to
throw punches in the ring,

303
00:16:47,460 --> 00:16:50,426
his next fight was in the elections.

304
00:16:50,426 --> 00:16:53,009
(gentle music)

305
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,590
A celebrity in his own right,

306
00:16:58,590 --> 00:17:01,560
Manny faced an uphill battle in convincing

307
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,660
the electorate to vote for someone

308
00:17:03,660 --> 00:17:07,803
with little to no education
or experience in politics.

309
00:17:09,660 --> 00:17:11,850
Pacquiao was defeated in the election

310
00:17:11,850 --> 00:17:14,100
by the incumbent representative

311
00:17:14,100 --> 00:17:16,920
from the Nationalist People's Coalition,

312
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,320
hinting that the people weren't prepared

313
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,257
to lose him as their boxing icon.

314
00:17:22,257 --> 00:17:25,590
(gentle dramatic music)

315
00:17:30,660 --> 00:17:32,823
June 20th, 2008.

316
00:17:34,830 --> 00:17:38,310
Continuing his legacy of
rising through divisions,

317
00:17:38,310 --> 00:17:40,920
the one time Flyweight world champion

318
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,870
was now standing toe to toe

319
00:17:42,870 --> 00:17:46,620
for the WBC Lightweight
World Championship,

320
00:17:46,620 --> 00:17:49,140
jumping through seven weight divisions

321
00:17:49,140 --> 00:17:52,680
to eventually fight David Diaz.

322
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,630
Taking place on The Strip,

323
00:17:54,630 --> 00:17:58,710
the bloody ninth round stoppage
sealed Pacquiao's status

324
00:17:58,710 --> 00:18:02,160
as the best pound for
pound fighter in the world,

325
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:06,033
taking the crown from the
recently retired Floyd Mayweather.

326
00:18:07,650 --> 00:18:10,890
Faster and stronger than Diaz throughout,

327
00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:14,310
his three and four punch
combinations stamped

328
00:18:14,310 --> 00:18:16,590
his name in the record books,

329
00:18:16,590 --> 00:18:19,620
becoming the only Asian boxer in history

330
00:18:19,620 --> 00:18:23,823
to hold five world titles
in five weight classes.

331
00:18:26,670 --> 00:18:31,200
With the Ring and WBC
super featherweight titles

332
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,630
as well as the latter's
lightweight version

333
00:18:33,630 --> 00:18:37,050
in his possession,
Pacquiao decided to vacate

334
00:18:37,050 --> 00:18:41,100
his super featherweight
titles, fixating on a showdown

335
00:18:41,100 --> 00:18:45,420
with 2005's Fighter of
the Year, Ricky Hatton.

336
00:18:45,420 --> 00:18:46,497
Me and Manny, you know,

337
00:18:46,497 --> 00:18:49,980
we're sitting there and then we fight.

338
00:18:49,980 --> 00:18:52,380
And not only, you know, you got the right,

339
00:18:52,380 --> 00:18:54,660
probably the best light
welterweight in the world

340
00:18:54,660 --> 00:18:57,120
against the best pound for
pound fighter in the world.

341
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:00,030
We both, you know, none of
us are ever in a dull fight.

342
00:19:00,030 --> 00:19:02,820
I don't think I've seen Manny
Pacquiao in a boring fight.

343
00:19:02,820 --> 00:19:03,831
He's an absolutely, I mean,

344
00:19:03,831 --> 00:19:06,420
if I wasn't fighting Manny Pacquiao,

345
00:19:06,420 --> 00:19:07,650
I think I'd be a fan of him.

346
00:19:07,650 --> 00:19:10,290
You know, 'cause he is
always in outstanding fights.

347
00:19:10,290 --> 00:19:12,150
But, you know, you become a great fighter

348
00:19:12,150 --> 00:19:13,830
by fighting great champions,

349
00:19:13,830 --> 00:19:15,900
and they don't come much
greater than Manny Pacquiao.

350
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:19,380
You know, when you think it's
an incredible achievement

351
00:19:19,380 --> 00:19:21,150
that he won, what was
it, his first world title

352
00:19:21,150 --> 00:19:23,853
at Light Flyweight, you know, a flyweight.

353
00:19:24,690 --> 00:19:26,640
You know, to beat Oscar De La Hoya

354
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,010
up at welterweight, that was,

355
00:19:29,010 --> 00:19:31,713
that's nothing short of
phenomenal, to be honest with you.

356
00:19:31,713 --> 00:19:34,350
It's an absolutely
outstanding achievement.

357
00:19:34,350 --> 00:19:36,270
This is a big fight, actually,

358
00:19:36,270 --> 00:19:38,640
and everybody's
anticipating this big fight,

359
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,500
especially Filipinos because you know,

360
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:43,260
Manny Pacquiao is a big
hero in the Philippines.

361
00:19:43,260 --> 00:19:45,480
And all his fights are being followed

362
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,520
very closely by all Filipinos.

363
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,810
And actually, he's considered
one of those very popular,

364
00:19:51,810 --> 00:19:54,630
influential persons in the Philippines.

365
00:19:54,630 --> 00:19:56,297
And that he has, you know,

366
00:19:56,297 --> 00:20:01,297
high-placed friends in
government and in other,

367
00:20:01,380 --> 00:20:03,840
you know, across sections of our society.

368
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,300
So we're very excited
about this next fight

369
00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:09,270
because we seem to know that they have

370
00:20:09,270 --> 00:20:11,190
the same common style of fighting,

371
00:20:11,190 --> 00:20:14,125
you know, the slugger type of fighting.

372
00:20:14,125 --> 00:20:17,040
So I think this will be very interesting.

373
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,990
When there's a fight of Manny Pacquiao,

374
00:20:18,990 --> 00:20:20,190
everybody watches, you know.

375
00:20:20,190 --> 00:20:23,700
And even the cabinet
secretaries, actually,

376
00:20:23,700 --> 00:20:26,040
there's a zero crime
rate all over the place

377
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,620
and there's a standstill
all over, no traffic.

378
00:20:28,620 --> 00:20:30,990
So it's really very nice time

379
00:20:30,990 --> 00:20:32,910
when you have a fight
like that, especially when

380
00:20:32,910 --> 00:20:34,770
there are so many problems
in our government,

381
00:20:34,770 --> 00:20:37,620
especially many problems
all over the world.

382
00:20:37,620 --> 00:20:40,020
And they look forward to seeing this fight

383
00:20:40,020 --> 00:20:41,760
of Manny Pacquiao and especially against

384
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,137
this guy who is also very
popular here in the UK,

385
00:20:45,137 --> 00:20:47,716
also a sports hero here.

386
00:20:47,716 --> 00:20:51,457
I would like to thanks to all of you.

387
00:20:51,457 --> 00:20:54,948
(crowd cheering)

388
00:20:54,948 --> 00:20:59,281
For all your support, and
I hope this coming me too.

389
00:21:01,037 --> 00:21:02,853
You're gonna watch the fight.

390
00:21:04,947 --> 00:21:08,444
This a once in a lifetime, great fight

391
00:21:08,444 --> 00:21:11,940

Hey, Garry.

00:21:25,890 --> 00:21:29,640
Rival promoters, but
they look like friends.

398
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,563
- We're partners.
- Exactly.

399

Okay, so where are you from, Manny?

From Scotland.

405

William, Sir Wallace. I'm from Scotland.

407

We're fighting for freedom
against the English.

408

Dart board?

00:22:35,479 --> 00:22:38,562
[Camera Man] Dart board, same time.

413
00:22:47,715 --> 00:22:50,965
(upbeat trumpet music)

414
00:22:56,104 --> 00:22:56,937
All right.

416
00:22:57,770 --> 00:23:00,353
All right, back to the point.

417
00:23:03,523 --> 00:23:04,917
[Garry] Are you practicing
your darts, Manny?

418
00:23:04,917 --> 00:23:06,513
Are you practicing darts then?

419
00:23:07,486 --> 00:23:08,319
Dart.

420
00:23:09,275 --> 00:23:12,660
You have to fake your ways to it.

421
00:23:12,660 --> 00:23:15,486
[Garry] You won't be
aware that shooting.

422
00:23:15,486 --> 00:23:18,486
I feel like I'm not good at darts.

423
00:23:21,316 --> 00:23:22,932
[Promoter] I'll take Garry.

424
00:23:22,932 --> 00:23:26,099

00:23:26,099 --> 00:23:27,989
[Garry] Fifth beaten (laughs).

426
00:23:27,989 --> 00:23:29,896
Fifth beaten playing darts.

427
00:23:29,896 --> 00:23:30,729
Yeah.

428
00:23:32,069 --> 00:23:34,819
(Manny laughing)

429
00:23:36,208 --> 00:23:38,958
(crowd cheering)

430
00:23:55,416 --> 00:23:58,166
(Ricky grunting)

431
00:23:59,253 --> 00:24:01,560
When Freddie says this
and Freddie says that,

432
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:02,580
when you see him sparring with someone

433
00:24:02,580 --> 00:24:05,043
like me who is probably
about four inches taller,

434
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,370
we'll be backing away from
Manny left, right, and center.

435
00:24:08,370 --> 00:24:09,203
You know what I mean?

436
00:24:09,203 --> 00:24:12,360
I don't, you know, the
fact that Freddie wants

437
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:16,980
him sparring by me makes
me, it puts confidence

438
00:24:16,980 --> 00:24:18,930
in me 'cause I think, but
I don't see, personally,

439
00:24:18,930 --> 00:24:21,150
I don't see the logic to it, you know.

440
00:24:21,150 --> 00:24:24,120
Freddie says he thinks Manny
will beat you new round.

441
00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:26,870
Sure, he's not, he's gonna,
he's not gonna come for me.

442
00:24:29,006 --> 00:24:29,880
I hope he does.

443
00:24:30,853 --> 00:24:34,303
I think he might come for
me for about 30 seconds.

444
00:24:34,303 --> 00:24:36,150
I generally do believe that.

445
00:24:36,150 --> 00:24:37,020
And if he does come for me,

446
00:24:37,020 --> 00:24:38,730
obviously, there's plenty
of dangers there for me.

447
00:24:38,730 --> 00:24:39,660
I've gotta be on me toes.

448
00:24:39,660 --> 00:24:40,980
I've gotta keep me chin
down and I've gotta,

449
00:24:40,980 --> 00:24:42,120
because he can and he does put

450
00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:44,844
the punches together fast and well.

451
00:24:44,844 --> 00:24:48,011
Well, please, God, I hope I punch him.

455

[Journalist] Around the
perimeter of the Wild Card Gym,

456
00:25:02,970 --> 00:25:06,370
all these people have
gathered to get the autograph

457
00:25:07,740 --> 00:25:11,313
and photograph signed of
Manny Pacquiao, the PacMan.

458
00:25:12,583 --> 00:25:14,640
(crowd chattering)

459
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,380
So they've all come to see Manny Pacquiao

460
00:25:16,380 --> 00:25:18,360
right under the stairs here,

461
00:25:18,360 --> 00:25:21,610
all the way around to these guys here

462
00:25:23,130 --> 00:25:24,880
who turned up about five hours ago.

463
00:25:26,302 --> 00:25:27,135
[Crew Member] You're welcome.

464
00:25:28,102 --> 00:25:30,151
Who was the first to come up?

465
00:25:30,151 --> 00:25:33,068
(crowd chattering)

466
00:25:33,938 --> 00:25:35,631
(crowd cheering)

467
00:25:35,631 --> 00:25:38,842
Six, nine, six. Six, six, six.

468
00:25:38,842 --> 00:25:42,092
Pacquiao!

469
00:25:42,092 --> 00:25:43,602
10 minutes. 10 minutes.

470
00:25:43,602 --> 00:25:46,352
(dramatic music)

471
00:25:48,108 --> 00:25:49,191
Right hook.

472
00:25:50,306 --> 00:25:53,510
(Manny grunting)

473
00:25:53,510 --> 00:25:54,583
Block.

474
00:25:54,583 --> 00:25:57,672
[Freddie] Right up.

475
00:25:57,672 --> 00:26:00,755
(gentle piano music)

476
00:26:27,090 --> 00:26:29,040
Well, I'm ready to fight on Saturday.

477
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:32,850
I know Ricky Hatton has
trained hard for this fight.

478
00:26:32,850 --> 00:26:35,943
He's a good person, nice guy.

479
00:26:36,810 --> 00:26:39,210
There's nothing personal for this fight.

480
00:26:39,210 --> 00:26:41,940
A boxer can't reach any
higher pinnacle, can he?

481
00:26:41,940 --> 00:26:43,350
Winning a world title is one thing,

482
00:26:43,350 --> 00:26:45,540
but pound for pound means you're regarded

483
00:26:45,540 --> 00:26:47,550
the best fighter in all weight divisions.

484
00:26:47,550 --> 00:26:49,230
You're the best fighter
breathing, I suppose.

485
00:26:49,230 --> 00:26:50,680
So that's what's on the line.

486
00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:56,313
[Narrator] May 2nd, 2009, Las Vegas.

487
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,850
In front of a sellout
crowd at the MGM Grand,

488
00:27:02,850 --> 00:27:05,133
the majority of which supported Hatton,

489
00:27:06,030 --> 00:27:09,330
the five-way champion
ferociously assaulted Hatton

490
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:10,863
from the sound of the bell.

491
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:16,880
Flooring the Brit not once,
but twice in the first round.

492
00:27:17,250 --> 00:27:20,010
Manny breached Hatton's
defense in the second

493
00:27:20,010 --> 00:27:22,773
with a flurry of vicious combinations.

494
00:27:24,690 --> 00:27:27,080
[Announcer] That might end
it! That's it, left hand.

495
00:27:27,990 --> 00:27:31,830
[Narrator] After connecting
only 18 from 78 thrown,

496
00:27:31,830 --> 00:27:35,790
a brutal left hand
rendered Hatton unconscious

497
00:27:35,790 --> 00:27:37,740
before hitting the floor.

498
00:27:37,740 --> 00:27:41,370
In hindsight, labeling the
best pound for pound fighter

499
00:27:41,370 --> 00:27:45,690
as a one-dimensional boxer
could have been better placed.

500
00:27:45,690 --> 00:27:49,740
Pacquiao's speedy demolition
profoundly affected Hatton,

501
00:27:49,740 --> 00:27:52,230
ultimately forcing him to retire

502
00:27:52,230 --> 00:27:54,903
and even contemplate suicide.

503
00:27:59,250 --> 00:28:02,910
In pursuit of more records,
Pacquiao set his sight

504
00:28:02,910 --> 00:28:07,910
on the WBO Welterweight
championship held by Cotto.

505
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,340
Both camps agreed to fight
two pounds underweight

506
00:28:11,340 --> 00:28:15,390
to accommodate Pacquiao's
more petite physique.

507
00:28:15,390 --> 00:28:18,300
The bout went deep into the 12th round

508
00:28:18,300 --> 00:28:22,200
with Pacquiao delivering Cotto's
only defeat of his career

509
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,520
with a TKO 55 seconds into round 12,

510
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,560
sending a boxer to hospital

511
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,770
for the second time in two fights.

512
00:28:31,770 --> 00:28:33,420
[Announcer] There is no limit, it seems,

513
00:28:33,420 --> 00:28:35,073
to what this man can do.

514
00:28:36,228 --> 00:28:39,210
(crowd chattering)

515
00:28:39,210 --> 00:28:40,950
When you beat Marquez,

516
00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:42,210
are you gonna call out Manny Pacquiao?

517
00:28:42,210 --> 00:28:43,698
That's the one all the fans wanna see.

518
00:28:43,698 --> 00:28:45,244
Well, I don't, you know,

519
00:28:45,244 --> 00:28:48,510
all roads leads to Floyd Mayweather.

520
00:28:48,510 --> 00:28:51,060
You know, I'm not chasing no opponent.

521
00:28:51,060 --> 00:28:53,070
If that fight presents itself next,

522
00:28:53,070 --> 00:28:54,693
then we'll make it happen.

523
00:28:55,696 --> 00:28:58,710
We don't cry. We don't
complain. We don't say nothing.

524
00:28:58,710 --> 00:29:01,560
All we do is work. All
we do is work. Yeah!

525
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:02,393
Yeah! Yeah!

526
00:29:02,393 --> 00:29:05,670
[Narrator] Negotiations
waiver as questions surrounding

527
00:29:05,670 --> 00:29:09,240
how and when they would be
drug tested led Mayweather

528
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,243
to take a couple more
years out of the sport.

00:29:16,500 --> 00:29:21,500
November 21st, 2009, an
announcement by Pacquiao confirmed

531
00:29:23,070 --> 00:29:27,060
his intent to once again
run for a congressional seat

532
00:29:27,060 --> 00:29:29,700
in the Philippine House
of Representatives.

533
00:29:29,700 --> 00:29:31,797
I'm confident like boxing.

534
00:29:31,797 --> 00:29:33,750
(group laughing)

535
00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:37,020
[Narrator] In 2010,
after months of campaigning

536
00:29:37,020 --> 00:29:40,050
across his wife's home
district of Sarangani,

537
00:29:40,050 --> 00:29:42,390
Pacquiao dethroned the wealthy

538
00:29:42,390 --> 00:29:46,260
and politically well
entrenched Chiongbian clan

539
00:29:46,260 --> 00:29:48,240
that had been in power in the province

540
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,193
for more than 30 years.

541
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,360
He garnered 120,000 votes
to his opponent's 60,000.

542
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,980
A landslide victory for someone

543
00:29:58,980 --> 00:30:01,323
with no political experience.

544
00:30:04,762 --> 00:30:07,620
(person singing in foreign language)

545
00:30:07,620 --> 00:30:10,770
[Narrator] Alongside
Angelina Jolie, Tiger Woods,

546
00:30:10,770 --> 00:30:13,890
and Kobe Bryant, in 2009,

547
00:30:13,890 --> 00:30:16,590
down to his influence in the Philippines,

548
00:30:16,590 --> 00:30:18,480
Manny was named in "Times"

549
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,053
and "Forbes" Top 100 celebrity lists.

550
00:30:24,540 --> 00:30:27,600
Manny shifted his focus
to the political ring,

551
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,080
where just like in boxing,
he had trained hard,

552
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,300
completing a course in development,

553
00:30:33,300 --> 00:30:35,433
legislation, and governance.

554
00:30:37,950 --> 00:30:40,800
Shortly after being
elected as a congressman,

555
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,290
he delivered a speech in which he argued

556
00:30:43,290 --> 00:30:46,200
that the country must do more to organize

557
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,070
and fund the efforts of
anti-trafficking agencies.

558
00:30:50,070 --> 00:30:54,090
Immediately, he began working
with the Vision Forum,

559
00:30:54,090 --> 00:30:57,480
the country's largest
anti-trafficking charity.

560
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,670
Lured from their homes with promises

561
00:30:59,670 --> 00:31:01,830
of job stability and wealth,

562
00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:05,160
Manny received praise for
highlighting the plight faced

563
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:09,120
by vulnerable victims trafficked
into the Manila sex bars

564
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,500
and overseas as far as Syria and Japan.

565
00:31:13,500 --> 00:31:16,290
For them, Manny's fight would last far

566
00:31:16,290 --> 00:31:18,393
beyond that of the ring.

567
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,520
On February 13th, 2013,

568
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,300
Philippines' president,
Benigno Aquino III,

569
00:31:27,300 --> 00:31:29,790
signed the anti-trafficking bill Pacquiao

570
00:31:29,790 --> 00:31:32,133
had been championing into law.

571
00:31:33,150 --> 00:31:36,150
But the larger than life
Filipino personality

572
00:31:36,150 --> 00:31:38,790
was never far from controversy.

573
00:31:38,790 --> 00:31:40,800
Religion was an essential pillar

574
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,320
of his beliefs and policies.

575
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,880
Raised as a Catholic,

576
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,970
but practicing as an
evangelical Protestant,

577
00:31:47,970 --> 00:31:51,450
his views on the contentious
reproductive health bill

578
00:31:51,450 --> 00:31:52,953
sparked criticism.

579
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,610
Manny Pacquiao is pro-life.

580
00:31:56,610 --> 00:32:01,050
Manny Pacquiao is vote no
to House Bill Number 4244.

581
00:32:02,430 --> 00:32:04,071
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

582
00:32:04,071 --> 00:32:08,066
(Fernando speaking in foreign language)

583
00:32:08,066 --> 00:32:11,550
(dramatic music)

584
00:32:11,550 --> 00:32:12,750
[Narrator] Standing alone

585
00:32:12,750 --> 00:32:15,780
as the only susceptible
champion in history,

586
00:32:15,780 --> 00:32:20,520
Manny returned to the states
and laced the gloves again.

587
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,990
This time, for the vacant
WBC Super Welterweight title

588
00:32:24,990 --> 00:32:26,943
versus Margarito.

589
00:32:28,110 --> 00:32:30,570
Entering the ring 17 pounds lighter

590
00:32:30,570 --> 00:32:33,030
than his opponent gave Pacquiao

591
00:32:33,030 --> 00:32:36,660
the upper hand on speed and combination.

592
00:32:36,660 --> 00:32:37,800
[Announcer] Yeah, Margarito's saying

593
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:38,970
that Pacquiao's not hurting him,

594
00:32:38,970 --> 00:32:41,190
but his face is telling a different story.

595
00:32:41,190 --> 00:32:42,180
[Announcer] Indeed.

596
00:32:42,180 --> 00:32:45,963
And Pacquiao's beginning to
land with almost every punt.

597
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,420
[Narrator] In the penultimate round,

598
00:32:48,420 --> 00:32:51,630
the damage delivered to
Margarito made Manny question

599
00:32:51,630 --> 00:32:54,600
the referee's decision
to continue the fight.

600
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:55,959
[Announcer] Garcia
may stop the fight now.

601
00:32:55,959 --> 00:32:58,788
[Announcer] I'm okay. I'm
okay. I'm okay. How are you?

602
00:32:58,788 --> 00:33:00,810
Tell me how are you, bastard? I'm okay.

603
00:33:00,810 --> 00:33:03,060
[Narrator] Backing
off in the last round,

604
00:33:03,060 --> 00:33:07,053
Pacquiao later admitted that
boxing wasn't for killing.

605
00:33:09,330 --> 00:33:11,970
After skipping his post fight interview,

606
00:33:11,970 --> 00:33:14,760
Margarito was sent directly to hospital

607
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,570
to undergo surgery for a
fractured orbital bone.

608
00:33:18,570 --> 00:33:20,520
The damage would be permanent,

609
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,880
almost losing him his license to box.

610
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,790
The victory continued his untouched legacy

611
00:33:26,790 --> 00:33:29,340
of becoming an eight-time world champion

612
00:33:29,340 --> 00:33:31,710
in eight different weight classes,

613
00:33:31,710 --> 00:33:34,623
a feat that would likely never be matched.

614
00:33:36,540 --> 00:33:39,930
Not intending to fight for
the retainment of that belt,

615
00:33:39,930 --> 00:33:42,630
Manny moved back down a weight class.

616
00:33:42,630 --> 00:33:46,620
But with pressure to focus
on his career in Congress,

617
00:33:46,620 --> 00:33:49,620
questions surrounding his
retirement resurfaced.

618
00:33:49,620 --> 00:33:52,290
My mom, she doesn't
want me to fight anymore,

619
00:33:52,290 --> 00:33:57,290
so we will talk about that with my family.

620
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,390
[Narrator] Further negotiation attempts

621
00:34:00,390 --> 00:34:03,360
to set up the fight that
would definitively decide

622
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,203
the best pound four pound
fighter of all time failed.

623
00:34:08,940 --> 00:34:11,283
June 9th, 2012.

624
00:34:12,330 --> 00:34:16,410
Instead of Mayweather, it was
Bradley that stood in his way,

625
00:34:16,410 --> 00:34:18,870
but controversy was never too far away

626
00:34:18,870 --> 00:34:20,523
from the Filipino boxer.

627
00:34:22,590 --> 00:34:25,170
In a display of what many analysts call

628
00:34:25,170 --> 00:34:27,660
a sign of corruption within the sport,

629
00:34:27,660 --> 00:34:29,640
the grueling 12 rounds,

630
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,640
which ended with most of
the ringside media scoring

631
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:37,640
a Pacquiao victory concluded
with a wave of boos.

632
00:34:37,830 --> 00:34:39,840
Bradley had won.

633
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:44,840
But by June 21st, the five WBO
Championship committee judges

634
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,670
on the review panel declared that Pacquiao

635
00:34:47,670 --> 00:34:49,863
should have been the rightful victor.

636
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,550
Unable to change the outcome,

637
00:34:53,550 --> 00:34:56,250
both fighters would meet again.

638
00:34:56,250 --> 00:35:00,573
Both victories went the way
of the unstoppable Filipino.

639
00:35:02,012 --> 00:35:04,762
(Manny grunting)

640
00:35:08,670 --> 00:35:10,830
2013 saw the election

641
00:35:10,830 --> 00:35:13,650
of the 16th Congress of the Philippines.

642
00:35:13,650 --> 00:35:15,630
Manny ran unopposed,

643
00:35:15,630 --> 00:35:19,440
securing a second stint
representing the people.

644
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,050
Now, killing with kindness,

645
00:35:22,050 --> 00:35:25,410
he gave much back to
the Filipino community.

646
00:35:25,410 --> 00:35:27,150
Known as the People's Champ

647
00:35:27,150 --> 00:35:30,240
for his generosity throughout his career,

648
00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:32,880
he's gifted almost 1/2 of the income

649
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:37,050
from all of his fight
purses and endorsements.

650
00:35:37,050 --> 00:35:41,583
According to Forbes, that
number rests at $500 million.

651
00:35:42,660 --> 00:35:44,760
Projects ranged from the construction

652
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,120
of 1,500 homes on the island of Mindanao

653
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,240
to the purchase and gifting
of a new fleet of boats

654
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:54,510
for fishermen in coastal communities.

655
00:35:54,510 --> 00:35:57,540
Though not a god, he remains worshiped

656
00:35:57,540 --> 00:36:01,230
by millions for his
philanthropic ventures,

657
00:36:01,230 --> 00:36:05,430
using his platform to
benefit not only himself,

658
00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:07,383
but to serve others.

659
00:36:11,790 --> 00:36:16,710
In 2014, he only attended
Congress four times,

660
00:36:16,710 --> 00:36:18,420
as his priorities shifted

661
00:36:18,420 --> 00:36:22,350
back to training for two
more fights that year.

662
00:36:22,350 --> 00:36:25,080
For Manny, entering the ring provided

663
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,513
an easier avenue for change.

664
00:36:28,590 --> 00:36:31,860
With an impressive record of 57 wins,

665
00:36:31,860 --> 00:36:36,860
five losses, and two draws,
little was left to conquer.

666
00:36:37,530 --> 00:36:42,530
Since 2010, negotiations for a
super fight that would define

667
00:36:42,750 --> 00:36:46,620
the greatest pound for
pound fighter have crumbled.

668
00:36:46,620 --> 00:36:49,650
Never have two fighters
who've never shared

669
00:36:49,650 --> 00:36:52,980
the ring together been so intertwined.

670
00:36:52,980 --> 00:36:55,710
Spawning from an unlikely source,

671
00:36:55,710 --> 00:36:57,720
serious negotiations between

672
00:36:57,720 --> 00:37:02,720
the two icons rekindled in mid-2014.

673
00:37:02,947 --> 00:37:06,114
(upbeat violin music)

674
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,803
Craig's Restaurant, West Hollywood.

675
00:37:13,380 --> 00:37:17,820
An unlikely friendship blossomed
from their love of boxing.

676
00:37:17,820 --> 00:37:20,580
Hollywood actor, Gabriel Salvador,

677
00:37:20,580 --> 00:37:23,730
working as a waiter
bonded with the president

678
00:37:23,730 --> 00:37:27,960
of Showtime's parent
company, Leslie Moonves.

679
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,330
Believing he could cut
through the politics

680
00:37:30,330 --> 00:37:33,840
which led to the failed
negotiations of the past,

681
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:38,310
he initiated a meeting
between Les Moonves and Roach,

682
00:37:38,310 --> 00:37:40,530
Manny's confidant and owner

683
00:37:40,530 --> 00:37:44,490
of the boxing gym
Salvador's son trained at.

684
00:37:44,490 --> 00:37:46,590
Roach agreed to the interview,

685
00:37:46,590 --> 00:37:49,020
setting the wheels in motion for one

686
00:37:49,020 --> 00:37:53,250
of the most anticipated
fights in boxing history.

687
00:37:53,250 --> 00:37:54,300
I think he's scared.

688
00:37:54,300 --> 00:37:57,090
I really don't want, I don't
think he wants this fight.

689
00:37:57,090 --> 00:38:02,070
I think that like CBS and
Showtime was losing so much money

690
00:38:02,070 --> 00:38:05,730
in his previous fights that
they forced him into this fight.

691
00:38:05,730 --> 00:38:07,260
I don't think he wants
to fight this fight.

692
00:38:07,260 --> 00:38:09,396
I think he was forced to fight Pacquiao

693
00:38:09,396 --> 00:38:10,229
'cause, I mean, you know,

694
00:38:11,250 --> 00:38:13,590
big companies like that
don't like to lose money.

695
00:38:13,590 --> 00:38:16,620
[Narrator] For the
first time since 2002,

696
00:38:16,620 --> 00:38:20,070
both HBO and Showtime came together

697
00:38:20,070 --> 00:38:22,770
to collaborate on the production.

698
00:38:22,770 --> 00:38:25,350
In the Philippines, plans were in place

699
00:38:25,350 --> 00:38:27,210
to broadcast it across three

700
00:38:27,210 --> 00:38:30,990
of the country's major
broadcast television networks.

701
00:38:30,990 --> 00:38:34,830
On February 20th, Mayweather
announced that the fight

702
00:38:34,830 --> 00:38:38,130
was official and a
contract had been signed

703
00:38:38,130 --> 00:38:42,663
for a fight to take
place on May 2nd, 2015.

704
00:38:43,980 --> 00:38:47,013
Destination, Las Vegas.

705
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,497
One of the biggest fight in my career

706
00:38:49,497 --> 00:38:51,914
and I think a historic fight.

707
00:38:53,268 --> 00:38:56,685
(gentle orchestra music)

708
00:39:00,090 --> 00:39:03,153
[Narrator] April 27th, 2015.

709
00:39:05,670 --> 00:39:07,890
In the lead up to the spectacle,

710
00:39:07,890 --> 00:39:12,570
Manny's mind was elsewhere as
he aimed to use his platform

711
00:39:12,570 --> 00:39:15,840
to fight for a fellow
Filipino incarcerated

712
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,450
on Indonesia's death row.

713
00:39:18,450 --> 00:39:21,180
Until the Philippine embassy receives

714
00:39:21,180 --> 00:39:23,490
the notice of execution,

715
00:39:23,490 --> 00:39:28,490
only then will the 72
heart come down commence.

716
00:39:29,190 --> 00:39:33,003
Filing of judicial review
will push through on Monday.

717
00:39:34,016 --> 00:39:36,067
[Protestors] Save the
life. Save the life.

718
00:39:36,067 --> 00:39:38,900
Save the life of Mary Jane Veloso.

719
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:43,412
(protestors chattering)

720
00:39:46,518 --> 00:39:48,178
I am Manny Pacquiao.

721
00:39:48,178 --> 00:39:50,237
On behalf of my countrymen,

722
00:39:50,237 --> 00:39:53,698
Mary Jane Veloso, and the
entire Filipino people,

723
00:39:53,698 --> 00:39:56,719
I am begging kindly not to jail her,

724
00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,108
that Your Excellency will
grant executive clemency

725
00:40:00,108 --> 00:40:05,108
to her by sparing her life
and saving her from execution.

726
00:40:05,485 --> 00:40:10,318
(protestors speaking in foreign language)

727
00:40:12,475 --> 00:40:15,392
(crowd chattering)

728
00:40:19,026 --> 00:40:21,943
(crowd chattering)

729
00:40:23,261 --> 00:40:27,678
(Manny speaking in foreign language)

730
00:40:28,664 --> 00:40:29,880
Back it up please. Back it up please.

731
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:30,713
Thank you. Thank you.

732
00:40:30,713 --> 00:40:33,132
We've gotta come all the way for him.

733
00:40:33,132 --> 00:40:35,040
(crowd chattering)

734
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,750
Everything that I have accomplished

735
00:40:36,750 --> 00:40:40,230
is God who give me the strength.

736
00:40:40,230 --> 00:40:44,580
I just want to be an example
and inspiration to everybody

737
00:40:44,580 --> 00:40:48,960
how my life before I became a boxer,

738
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,800
I used to sleep in the
street, starving, hungry.

739
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,120
And now I cannot imagine

740
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,303
that the Lord raised me in this position.

741
00:40:58,555 --> 00:41:01,805
(tense dramatic music)

742
00:41:07,617 --> 00:41:10,700
[Crowd] Manny! Manny! Manny! Manny!

743
00:41:11,655 --> 00:41:13,354
[Announcer] Tell me what y'all see!

744
00:41:13,354 --> 00:41:17,387
Tell me what you see.
Tell me what you see.

745
00:41:17,387 --> 00:41:20,137
(dramatic music)

746
00:41:30,729 --> 00:41:31,646
Pacquiao!

747
00:41:39,545 --> 00:41:40,878
PacMan Pacquiao!

748
00:41:45,030 --> 00:41:47,160
[Narrator] The broadcast
in the Philippines

749
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,170
was being watched by nearly 1/2

750
00:41:49,170 --> 00:41:51,270
of the country's households.

751
00:41:51,270 --> 00:41:54,330
In stark contrast to the Vegas Strip,

752
00:41:54,330 --> 00:41:58,680
the usually bustling
streets of Manila halt.

753
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:03,360
When Manny fights, it's an
unofficial national holiday.

754
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,033
Even crime diminishes.

755
00:42:08,130 --> 00:42:11,670
Two of the best pound for
pound fighters in history took

756
00:42:11,670 --> 00:42:16,470
to the canvas with the eyes
of the world fixated on them.

757
00:42:16,470 --> 00:42:19,260
Both fighters came out aggressively

758
00:42:19,260 --> 00:42:23,070
with the first three rounds
going the way of the American

759
00:42:23,070 --> 00:42:25,500
as he escaped Pacquiao's attempts

760
00:42:25,500 --> 00:42:27,843
to push him up against the ropes.

761
00:42:29,100 --> 00:42:31,890
The pressure exhibited in round four

762
00:42:31,890 --> 00:42:35,460
pushed Pacquiao's body
back to breaking point,

763
00:42:35,460 --> 00:42:37,350
aggravating a shoulder injury

764
00:42:37,350 --> 00:42:40,350
he received just a month prior.

765
00:42:40,350 --> 00:42:44,823
From that point on, the
PacMan was ineffective.

766
00:42:48,390 --> 00:42:53,130
Athletes always fight hurt.

767
00:42:53,130 --> 00:42:57,870
We felt the work that
was done on the shoulder

768
00:42:57,870 --> 00:42:59,820
during training would give

769
00:42:59,820 --> 00:43:03,747
him the opportunity to use the right hand.

770
00:43:03,747 --> 00:43:08,747
The thing is on the third
round, I already, you know,

771
00:43:09,907 --> 00:43:12,690
feel the pain in my shoulder.

772
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:16,830
So that's why when I throw
a lot of path's combination

773
00:43:16,830 --> 00:43:21,830
and I imagine I back
off because it's hurt.

774
00:43:23,190 --> 00:43:25,650
[Narrator] The injury
was partially healed.

775
00:43:25,650 --> 00:43:28,440
But Pacquiao requested and was denied

776
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,790
an injection of legal
painkillers before the fight.

777
00:43:32,790 --> 00:43:35,640
Though continuing to dispute the results,

778
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:37,140
maintaining he should have been

779
00:43:37,140 --> 00:43:40,650
the victor by two points after 12 rounds,

780
00:43:40,650 --> 00:43:44,703
Pacquiao suffered defeat
by a unanimous decision.

781
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,010
The bout made sporting history

782
00:43:50,010 --> 00:43:53,370
with Pacquiao becoming the
second highest paid athlete

783
00:43:53,370 --> 00:43:57,000
in the world in 2015.

784
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,990
The man that once struggled
to survive on the streets

785
00:44:00,990 --> 00:44:05,100
had generated $1.2 billion in revenue

786
00:44:05,100 --> 00:44:08,223
from his 25 pay-per-view bouts.

787
00:44:09,510 --> 00:44:11,640
Recovering from surgery to repair

788
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,750
a torn rotator cuff following
his defeat to Mayweather,

789
00:44:15,750 --> 00:44:18,513
Manny vowed to return to the ring.

790
00:44:20,190 --> 00:44:23,670
My physical condition now is good, 100%.

791
00:44:23,670 --> 00:44:26,651
My shoulder well, and it's healed already.

792
00:44:26,651 --> 00:44:31,167
And I'm excited to go back
to America and, you know,

793
00:44:32,730 --> 00:44:33,980
finish my training there.

794
00:44:35,307 --> 00:44:36,480
There's always that side

795
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,330
of me that sees Senator
Manny Pacquiao defend

796
00:44:39,330 --> 00:44:42,180
his world title because he's like that.

797
00:44:42,180 --> 00:44:45,390
He loves that. He loves stuff like that.

798
00:44:45,390 --> 00:44:47,250
[Narrator] In his role as legislator

799
00:44:47,250 --> 00:44:49,410
in the House of Representatives,

800
00:44:49,410 --> 00:44:52,770
he was less effective
in administering change

801
00:44:52,770 --> 00:44:55,200
as none of the bills he'd filed passed

802
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:56,790
through the committee.

803
00:44:56,790 --> 00:44:58,710
But his failings didn't diminish

804
00:44:58,710 --> 00:45:01,560
his ambition to become a senator.

805
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:06,560
My goal is to give, to
serve the people honestly

806
00:45:08,100 --> 00:45:12,000
and to expose all the wickedness

807
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,435
and the testable things that,

808
00:45:14,435 --> 00:45:18,243
in God's eye that most
of the politician do.

809
00:45:19,860 --> 00:45:22,410
[Narrator] Under the
United Nationalist Alliance,

810
00:45:22,410 --> 00:45:24,990
the party of Vice President Binay,

811
00:45:24,990 --> 00:45:27,570
Pacquiao announced his
intention to continue

812
00:45:27,570 --> 00:45:32,104
his career in Filipino
politics, running for senator.

813
00:45:32,104 --> 00:45:37,104
(Manny speaking in foreign language)

814
00:45:37,256 --> 00:45:41,589
(lady speaking in foreign language)

815
00:45:45,284 --> 00:45:48,480
(crowd cheering)

816
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,400
[Narrator] Growing
up in the Philippines,

817
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,650
his mother raised him Catholic.

818
00:45:52,650 --> 00:45:54,540
But the trappings for a young man

819
00:45:54,540 --> 00:45:57,210
in Manila became too tempting.

820
00:45:57,210 --> 00:46:00,210
Drifting into gambling
and dabbling in drugs

821
00:46:00,210 --> 00:46:03,330
and alcohol plunged Manny into a period

822
00:46:03,330 --> 00:46:07,683
of sin during his earlier
years as a professional boxer.

823
00:46:09,810 --> 00:46:12,510
I have a lot of friends,

824
00:46:12,510 --> 00:46:17,510
but they encouraged me to try these drugs.

825
00:46:17,550 --> 00:46:18,900
And then I had,

826
00:46:18,900 --> 00:46:22,650
I try it and then when
I realized I was young,

827
00:46:22,650 --> 00:46:26,880
I was like 15, 16.

828
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,660
But when I realized it's not
good and I don't like it,

829
00:46:30,660 --> 00:46:34,913
then that's why I strongly oppose

830
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,713
and fight these illegal drugs.

831
00:46:39,210 --> 00:46:43,380
The problem in our country
is beyond of our expectation,

832
00:46:43,380 --> 00:46:46,200
beyond of our imagination, that the drugs,

833
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:51,200
these illegal drugs in our
country is really is, really bad.

834
00:46:53,070 --> 00:46:56,610
And a lot of government officials,

835
00:46:56,610 --> 00:47:01,610
elected officials are involved
with this illegal drug.

836
00:47:02,190 --> 00:47:04,860
[Narrator] With age came transformation,

837
00:47:04,860 --> 00:47:08,160
both ideologically and physically.

838
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,210
After a visitation in
his dream by two angels,

839
00:47:12,210 --> 00:47:15,270
Pacquiao altered his perspective on life,

840
00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:19,293
vowing to be a born again
evangelical Protestant.

841
00:47:22,860 --> 00:47:24,960
His biblical teachings permeated

842
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,710
into every aspect of
his life and politics.

843
00:47:28,710 --> 00:47:31,080
He was a more faithful spouse,

844
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,900
but received heavy criticism for holding

845
00:47:33,900 --> 00:47:37,500
the biblical definition of homosexuality.

846
00:47:37,500 --> 00:47:42,500
What did I wrong is just
comparing the people to animals.

847
00:47:44,850 --> 00:47:48,123
But, you know, what I'm
telling is the truth. I mean.

848
00:47:49,177 --> 00:47:50,610
Straight. Straight.

849
00:47:50,610 --> 00:47:52,560
I'm just telling what the Bible says.

850
00:47:56,005 --> 00:48:00,588
(members speaking in foreign language)

851
00:48:07,875 --> 00:48:10,208
[Narrator] May 19th, 2016.

852
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,650
Having received the backing
of over 16 million votes,

853
00:48:16,650 --> 00:48:18,570
Pacquiao was formally elected

854
00:48:18,570 --> 00:48:23,520
as a senator of the Philippines,
coming in seventh place.

855
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,160
A crucial step for any politician

856
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,733
on their journey to
potentially becoming president.

857
00:48:33,090 --> 00:48:38,040
At 37 years old, Pacquiao wasn't
finished throwing punches,

858
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,593
both in the ring and politically.

859
00:48:42,690 --> 00:48:46,800
Even though he'd announced
his retirement in 2015,

860
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,860
words spread of a possible comeback bout

861
00:48:49,860 --> 00:48:53,010
if it didn't infringe on
his work in the Senate.

862
00:48:53,010 --> 00:48:55,800
I'm already retired,
so I might come back,

863
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,740
but I'm not saying that
I'm going to fight but,

864
00:48:58,740 --> 00:49:01,039
and I just want to make sure.

865
00:49:01,039 --> 00:49:03,600
(Manny speaking in foreign language)

866
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,570
My work in Senate will not be affected.

867
00:49:06,570 --> 00:49:11,220
If I'm going to come back,

868
00:49:11,220 --> 00:49:14,104
if I'm coming back to fight again,

869
00:49:14,104 --> 00:49:19,104
I just want to make sure
that in times of vacation,

870
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,290
in seeing it like that.

871
00:49:22,290 --> 00:49:26,730
I grew up in boxing and
boxing is my passion.

872
00:49:26,730 --> 00:49:31,730
So, but time comes right now
and my priority is my work.

873
00:49:36,784 --> 00:49:39,367
(gentle music)

874
00:49:46,830 --> 00:49:49,110
I'm not saying that, you know,

875
00:49:50,670 --> 00:49:54,600
I'm not saying that boxing is close to me,

876
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,100
but you know, we never know.

877
00:49:56,100 --> 00:50:00,570
But it's already, I made
my decision to retire.

878
00:50:00,570 --> 00:50:03,660
I didn't feel different compare

879
00:50:03,660 --> 00:50:07,863
when I was 27, 25 like that.

880
00:50:08,790 --> 00:50:12,780
I'm still the same because
I have a, you know,

881
00:50:12,780 --> 00:50:15,840
I discipline myself even
if I don't have a fight.

882
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:17,610
I don't, I am not in training.

883
00:50:17,610 --> 00:50:21,603
I always exercise every
day, so playing basketball.

884
00:50:21,603 --> 00:50:24,686
(speed bag rattling)

885
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,110
I'm confident to win
the fight. That is good.

886
00:50:31,110 --> 00:50:34,530
But I don't want to take him lightly.

887
00:50:34,530 --> 00:50:35,550
I just want to make sure

888
00:50:35,550 --> 00:50:38,943
that I'm 100% condition for this training.

889
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:40,800
I just want to make sure

890
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:45,150
that I'm 100% physically,
mentally, and spiritually.

891
00:50:45,150 --> 00:50:47,220
It's going okay. I mean,
no different than before.

892
00:50:47,220 --> 00:50:50,190
He used to be singing,
dancing, or making movies.

893
00:50:50,190 --> 00:50:52,410
So I mean, he always likes a full plate,

894
00:50:52,410 --> 00:50:54,630
and Manny responds well of that.

895
00:50:54,630 --> 00:50:55,757
He had a great day a couple days ago.

896
00:50:55,757 --> 00:50:57,150
He's a little flat today.

897
00:50:57,150 --> 00:50:58,944
But, you know, you have those days.

898
00:50:58,944 --> 00:51:01,470
It's up and down like that.

899
00:51:01,470 --> 00:51:05,040
But then once we get, as
we get closer to the fight,

900
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,843
we'll get more control of.

901
00:51:06,843 --> 00:51:10,426
(dramatic orchestra music)

902
00:51:19,588 --> 00:51:22,505
(crowd applauding)

903
00:51:27,852 --> 00:51:31,435
(dramatic orchestra music)

904
00:51:47,332 --> 00:51:49,380
My time is not done yet.

905
00:51:49,380 --> 00:51:52,950
That's what I'm trying to have to prove

906
00:51:52,950 --> 00:51:56,089
this coming July 15th that Manny Pacquiao

907
00:51:56,089 --> 00:51:58,879
is not done yet in boxing.

908
00:51:58,879 --> 00:52:02,462
(dramatic orchestra music)

909
00:52:27,898 --> 00:52:30,050
[Announcer] Two seconds to go.

910
00:52:30,050 --> 00:52:32,800
(crowd cheering)

911
00:52:48,399 --> 00:52:50,982
(gentle music)

912
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:18,469

914

(gentle orchestra music)

915
00:54:01,477 --> 00:54:04,477
(upbeat band music)

916
00:54:08,797 --> 00:54:11,380
(gentle music)

918
00:54:20,877 --> 00:54:23,627

920
00:54:44,827 --> 00:54:49,327
(members singing in foreign language)

921
00:54:56,645 --> 00:54:58,080
(crowd applauding)

922
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:00,540
[Narrator] The views
he was elected on aligned

923
00:55:00,540 --> 00:55:03,900
with that of the controversial
president, Duterte,

924
00:55:03,900 --> 00:55:05,910
and his government.

925
00:55:05,910 --> 00:55:09,780
As of 2018, Pacquiao has filed a total

926
00:55:09,780 --> 00:55:13,980
of 31 Senate bills
during the 17th Congress.

927
00:55:13,980 --> 00:55:16,770
And in a contentious bill filing,

928
00:55:16,770 --> 00:55:20,250
he backed the return of the death penalty.

929
00:55:20,250 --> 00:55:23,610
I am aware that we still have a long way

930
00:55:23,610 --> 00:55:28,113
to go in our fight against
this social menace.

931
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:33,090
Let the reason why I
advocate the imposition

932
00:55:33,090 --> 00:55:38,090
of the death penalty for crimes
related to illegal drugs.

933
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:47,663
It's nothing personal to, you know,

934
00:55:47,663 --> 00:55:51,420
towards the dilemma and
the committee on justice.

935
00:55:51,420 --> 00:55:56,420
I'm just doing my job
to correct everything,

936
00:55:56,970 --> 00:56:00,540
to follow the rules in
regulation in the Senate.

937
00:56:00,540 --> 00:56:02,940
[Narrator] The Philippine
drug war intensified

938
00:56:02,940 --> 00:56:05,430
under the presidency of Duterte,

939
00:56:05,430 --> 00:56:08,280
pledging to eradicate all illegal drugs,

940
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:12,870
going as far as urging the
public to kill addicts.

941
00:56:12,870 --> 00:56:15,810
The drug lords, drug
boosters, they alarm.

942
00:56:15,810 --> 00:56:20,130
And then they, of course,
they have to, I mean,

943
00:56:20,130 --> 00:56:22,380
I'm sure they have to
kill their people not

944
00:56:22,380 --> 00:56:25,400
to expose them at the public,

945
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:26,940
in the public so that's what happened.

946
00:56:26,940 --> 00:56:28,920
But it's unfair for that to the president

947
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:30,960
that all the killings,

948
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:35,280
all the crimes charged to the president.

949
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:40,280
My focus is to change and to change

950
00:56:40,350 --> 00:56:42,720
our country and help
the president advocacy

951
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:46,470
because the president
and I, we're very close.

952
00:56:46,470 --> 00:56:51,000
So we're joined together and then clean

953
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:53,850
these illegal drugs in our country.

954
00:56:53,850 --> 00:56:55,230
[Narrator] Although he'd admitted

955
00:56:55,230 --> 00:56:58,770
to sampling prohibited
substances in his youth,

956
00:56:58,770 --> 00:57:02,310
many of Pacquiao's fans
were left disappointed

957
00:57:02,310 --> 00:57:04,860
by the boxing icon's stance.

958
00:57:04,860 --> 00:57:06,120
[Manny] We respect our president.

959
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,060
We honor our president
because the only president

960
00:57:09,060 --> 00:57:14,060
who fight and hit on these illegal drugs.

961
00:57:14,100 --> 00:57:17,610
This our opportunity to bring it back,

962
00:57:17,610 --> 00:57:21,480
the harmony and peace in our country.

963
00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,450
(gentle piano music)

964
00:57:24,450 --> 00:57:27,750
[Narrator] Including 54
children in the first year,

965
00:57:27,750 --> 00:57:31,230
news organizations and
human rights groups claimed

966
00:57:31,230 --> 00:57:36,230
the war on drugs led to the
deaths of over 12,000 Filipinos.

967
00:57:38,970 --> 00:57:41,490
Waning in the twilight of his career,

968
00:57:41,490 --> 00:57:45,330
Manny won only four of his
last six professional bouts

969
00:57:45,330 --> 00:57:47,610
during his stint as senator,

970
00:57:47,610 --> 00:57:51,720
ending his career with
a record of 62 wins,

971
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,840
eight losses, and two draws.

972
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:56,253
Boxing is my passion.

973
00:57:59,190 --> 00:58:03,630
It's really hard to, you know, to stop

974
00:58:03,630 --> 00:58:06,810
and turn, hang up the gloves when you are,

975
00:58:06,810 --> 00:58:10,380
when you know that you can still fight.

976
00:58:10,380 --> 00:58:14,073
I want to have people around
so I can, I'm motivated.

977
00:58:15,150 --> 00:58:17,160
It gives me more motivation

978
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:21,510
and determination to
work hard and to focus.

979
00:58:21,510 --> 00:58:23,760
[Narrator] Amidst
the political backlash,

980
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,820
he continued his philanthropic ventures.

981
00:58:26,820 --> 00:58:29,790
As the COVID pandemic gripped the world,

982
00:58:29,790 --> 00:58:33,420
Pacquiao and Chinese
billionaire Jack Ma helped

983
00:58:33,420 --> 00:58:37,413
to provide the Philippines
with over 50,000 test kits.

984
00:58:40,050 --> 00:58:43,170
As the end of Duterte's presidency neared,

985
00:58:43,170 --> 00:58:46,923
speculation of a potential
successor quickly spread.

986
00:58:47,910 --> 00:58:50,510
[Interviewer] Are you
going to run for presidency?

987
00:58:51,429 --> 00:58:52,596
It might be.

988
00:58:54,331 --> 00:58:59,331
I'll, whatever my decision
in the right time,

989
00:58:59,550 --> 00:59:01,050
I will announce it.

990
00:59:01,050 --> 00:59:04,320
[Narrator] Pacquiao had spent
the last decade and a half

991
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,140
of his career learning government protocol

992
00:59:07,140 --> 00:59:09,150
and serving the people.

993
00:59:09,150 --> 00:59:13,800
If God will put me there,
although I'm not declaring yet,

994
00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,770
I'm not, I don't have
a final decision yet.

995
00:59:16,770 --> 00:59:19,593
But if that my destiny
to become a president,

996
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:22,830
first thing to do that I'm going to work

997
00:59:22,830 --> 00:59:27,633
out of my job is to build a mega prison,

998
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,530
which is preparing for those,

999
00:59:31,530 --> 00:59:33,720
because I'm going to declare
war against corruption,

1000
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:38,720
so I want, that's my only dream
is to see them in the jail,

1001
00:59:41,010 --> 00:59:43,113
all the corrupt politician.

1002
00:59:44,427 --> 00:59:47,510
(gentle piano music)

1003
01:00:00,814 --> 01:00:03,397
(gentle music)

1004
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:07,530
[Narrator] The people's champ threw

1005
01:00:07,530 --> 01:00:12,530
his hat in the ring on
September 19th, 2021.

1006
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:18,030
I am thinking about backing
out like that of my plan.

1007
01:00:18,030 --> 01:00:20,490
This is for the Filipino people.

1008
01:00:20,490 --> 01:00:21,690
What I'm doing now is to,

1009
01:00:21,690 --> 01:00:26,690
for the benefits and for,
through change, real change.

1010
01:00:28,170 --> 01:00:33,170
I never in my dreams that
I wanted to be president.

1011
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,290
But it just, seeing the desperation

1012
01:00:37,290 --> 01:00:42,290
of our people made me realize
everything that I need to,

1013
01:00:43,770 --> 01:00:48,390
because nobody will
fight for them sincerely,

1014
01:00:48,390 --> 01:00:52,165
wholeheartedly, and that's Manny Pacquiao.

1015
01:00:52,165 --> 01:00:54,748
(gentle music)

1016
01:00:56,333 --> 01:01:01,333
We can push the drug war
without, with due process.

1017
01:01:03,300 --> 01:01:04,413
I mean, there's a law.

1018
01:01:06,630 --> 01:01:09,480
You have to respect the due process.

1019
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:11,610
Give them chance to defend themselves

1020
01:01:11,610 --> 01:01:14,103
and to prove that they're innocent.

1021
01:01:15,324 --> 01:01:19,320
[Interviewer] Do you think
that putting drug users

1022
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,870
in jail is the right thing to do,

1023
01:01:21,870 --> 01:01:25,620
is the best way to deal with that issue?

1024
01:01:25,620 --> 01:01:27,630
'Cause it could have been you.

1025
01:01:27,630 --> 01:01:30,900
Yeah, so we have to put to jail in,

1026
01:01:30,900 --> 01:01:34,080
those who are using drugs, selling drugs.

1027
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:38,190
That's what the law says.

1028
01:01:38,190 --> 01:01:43,190
I mean, drugs in the Philippines
is not legal, it's illegal.

1029
01:01:45,420 --> 01:01:49,770
So, but we're not going to kill them

1030
01:01:49,770 --> 01:01:53,283
and without due process
like that in the streets.

1031
01:01:54,385 --> 01:01:55,560
[Interviewer] Should
you have gone to jail?

1032
01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,053
Because you said you
have used drugs before.

1033
01:01:59,070 --> 01:02:01,080
No, that was when I was younger.

1034
01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:02,700
I mean, when I was younger,

1035
01:02:02,700 --> 01:02:06,990
I mean, if you're code like that,

1036
01:02:06,990 --> 01:02:10,890
if you're a code and people can change.

1037
01:02:10,890 --> 01:02:13,350
That's what I'm talking
about. You know what I mean?

1038
01:02:13,350 --> 01:02:18,350
If you change your life and then, I mean,

1039
01:02:18,810 --> 01:02:21,513
if you change your life
and follow the law, then.

1040
01:02:23,250 --> 01:02:27,210
Before, I'm naive, that's why I use drug.

1041
01:02:27,210 --> 01:02:28,680
I don't know that the law.

1042
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:30,980
But if you know the law,
I don't think people,

1043
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:33,960
they don't know the law.

1044
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:36,000
That's what I'm talking about.

1045
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,100
People, they know already that

1046
01:02:38,100 --> 01:02:42,030
the law is not allowing the illegal drugs.

1047
01:02:42,030 --> 01:02:43,747
So we should obey the law.

1048
01:02:45,404 --> 01:02:47,023
[Interviewer] So you're
saying when you took drugs,

1049
01:02:47,023 --> 01:02:50,025
you didn't know that it
was against the rules?

1050
01:02:50,025 --> 01:02:54,305
Yes. I'm young. I don't know the law.

1051
01:02:54,305 --> 01:02:57,004
[Interviewer] How young were you?

1052
01:02:57,004 --> 01:02:58,004
Before 18.

1053
01:03:01,143 --> 01:03:04,310
(gentle upbeat music)

1054
01:03:07,737 --> 01:03:12,000
(artist singing in foreign language)

1055
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,350
[Narrator] Standing on a platform

1056
01:03:13,350 --> 01:03:16,890
of eliminating corruption,
healthcare reform,

1057
01:03:16,890 --> 01:03:21,240
and a promise of nationwide
housing projects for the poor,

1058
01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:25,847
centering his campaign on
the impoverished in society.

1059
01:03:25,847 --> 01:03:28,597
(dramatic music)

1060
01:03:36,450 --> 01:03:39,600
He struggled to gain
traction amongst the voters

1061
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,780
and found himself combative
against statements

1062
01:03:42,780 --> 01:03:46,170
that he is not intelligent
enough to lead a government.

1063
01:03:46,170 --> 01:03:48,630
Saying himself that those who vote

1064
01:03:48,630 --> 01:03:52,287
for corrupt officials are
even more feeble-minded.

1065
01:03:52,287 --> 01:03:55,037
(dramatic music)

1066
01:03:58,860 --> 01:04:02,160
Pacquiao's efforts to lead
his fellow countrymen landed

1067
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:07,160
him in third place, receiving
only 6.18% of the vote.

1068
01:04:08,790 --> 01:04:11,790
Having failed in his
bid for the presidency,

1069
01:04:11,790 --> 01:04:15,007
he continues to give
back to the community.

1070
01:04:15,007 --> 01:04:18,840
(fast-paced, uplifting music)

1071
01:04:21,090 --> 01:04:24,630
Whatever your views are
on politics or religion,

1072
01:04:24,630 --> 01:04:28,620
Manny has stood powerfully
for the powerless,

1073
01:04:28,620 --> 01:04:33,620
providing a platform and
support to those in need,

1074
01:04:33,930 --> 01:04:38,100
displaying the conviction
that better times will come

1075
01:04:38,100 --> 01:04:41,310
and then better conditions.

1076
01:04:41,310 --> 01:04:44,910
Few sporting legacies in any sport revolve

1077
01:04:44,910 --> 01:04:48,630
around their exploits
outside of the field of play.

1078
01:04:48,630 --> 01:04:52,800
Many Pacquiao's legacy
will forever be remembered

1079
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:57,800
for the change accomplished
inside and outside the ring.

1080
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:03,590
I miss boxing, but I don't
think boxing is still like me.

1081
01:05:05,809 --> 01:05:07,230
(Manny chuckling)

1082
01:05:07,230 --> 01:05:11,370
Well, I'm already 40,
turning 43 years old,

1083
01:05:11,370 --> 01:05:13,497
so it's enough for me.

1084
01:05:14,993 --> 01:05:16,233
I mean, I'm done.

1085
01:05:17,684 --> 01:05:22,684
Hanging the, my glove is
the hardest part of my life

1086
01:05:24,977 --> 01:05:26,973
'cause I grew up in boxing, so,

1087
01:05:28,126 --> 01:05:30,423
but I understand that this is sport.

1088
01:05:33,345 --> 01:05:37,012
(fast-paced dramatic music)
