Pacquiao's Lawyer mentioned that the Filipino boxing superstar aims to be a part-time fighter after he becomes a congressman in the Philippines.
Jeng Gacal pointed out in
recent reports that Oscar De La Hoya set the precedent of choosing when and who to fight. Oscar, who fought once or twice a year towards the twilight of his career, will serve as a model for the IBO junior welterweight champion when he becomes a fighting political figure. The golden boy managed to build a successful promotional company while fighting part- time.
The Filipino lawyer said that Pacquiao will continue to give joy his fans and bring unity among his people through boxing for a few more years.
Manny is hoping to finalize his fight with Miguel Cotto in November in the next few days. Pacquiao is aiming to win his seventh title in the welterweight division and place himself in the upper echelon of boxing greats.
