Manny and Jinkee Pacquiaos decision is final. The Pacman will fight one more big boxing match and then will retire. Mr. Pound for Pound boxing champion of the world, our Pambansang Kamao has thrown the gauntlet, he will definitely run for Congressman in Jinkee Pacquaios hometown of Sarangani in 2010. To underscore this decision, the Pacquiaos have acquired quite a large house in that town in view of the political campaign ahead. Manny said in a recent television interview with GMA tv, that he liked their new Sarangani home, because it was well designed and comfortable. The scene showed the Pacman and his family in casual play summer clothes of t-shirts and shorts inside this new house with Jinkee relaxing in Mannys arms while watching their children milling around the room. Good for the Pacman. He is finally getting to enjoy the company of his family.
In fact he had planned a family vacation trip to Bohol that would last all the way to Fathers day but these plans were cut short, when Bob Arum, Mannys enthusiastic octogenarian promoter, finally convinced Jinkee that Manny ought not to say no to the invitation of the New York Boxing Writers Association. After all, they had just awarded him the Fighter of the Year award, and hasnt the American press been so good to her husband? Only when Jinkee acceded, did Manny finally agree to hop on a plane for the 12 hour trip to the Big Apple.

One Last FightBy Victoria V. Ferro
Filipino boxing hero and a hero of Asia, Manny Pacquiao, received what amounted to the coveted Oscar Award of boxing as Fighter of the Year for 2008 from the prestigious Boxing Writers Association of America at star-studded dinner in New York last June 12, 2009
It was Pacquiaos second Fighter of the Year award having first won the accolade in 2006. The awards dinner which was carried Live by Gofightlive.tv was monitored in Manila by www.insidesports.ph and Viva Sports.
Pacquiao received a standing ovation when he went on stage to receive the award from BWAA president Jack Hirsch who hinted that with Pacquiaos spectacular 2nd round knockout of Ricky The Hitman Hatton last May 2 may put him in contention for a third award for 2009. R. Nathanielsz Philboxing.com

like having a meal without an entre. And Pacman is the entre. Bob Arum I am sure has heaved a sigh of relief and his best ward will be on the plane to New York tomorrow just in time for the sold out event.
And so continues the worlds fascination of the soft-spoken faith-filled gentleman from General Santos City. Not only has Time Magazine named him one of the worlds most influential people; Forbes magazine has listed him as one of the worlds top 100 celebrities. New York Examiner boxing maven, Michael Marley, known for his humorous columns, just admitted to his MP addiction. That is, he just cant help but keep writing about anything and everything Manny Pacquiao.
Clearly there continues a very strong take up larger numbers of passionate followers of the Pacman all over the world, and this is not going to abate, not for one moment, as the Pacman deliberates with his advisers who his next opponent will be and prepares for his next fight. Manny Pacquiao mania will yet crest in a historic fight that will be held sometime the last quarter of 2009, most likely against the winner of the Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez match that will be held in July.
This fight will be historic because the Pacman says it will be his last fight. He has a young growing family and he has expressed his decision to spend a great deal more time with them. He also wants to retire at the peak of his career, with his health intact. Wise choices for the man who would be Congressman and doting father to his four children.
In this last fight, especially if he ends up fighting with Floyd Money Mayweather, Jr., Manny will bring in the largest purse ever of his career. If Manny wins, he will cement his place at the very top of the pantheon of boxing greats. His name will be known throughout history as one of the best boxers who ever lived. Not a bad way to retire. If Manny wins the Congressional race in Sarangani province, then he is likely to keep his promise to his family and hang up his professional gloves forever. If not, all bets are off.
Mayweather, Jr., true to form, started trashtalking the Pacman since May and he hasnt even been chosen as the next opponent yet. If Mayweather ends up fighting Manny the last quarter of 2009, the whole world will be catching their breath, fighting tooth and nail for tickets. Pinoy Global Access will surely be there, and predicts trashtalker Mayweather doesnt stand a chance. The world has yet to see the Pacmans finest hour.

Post Pacman-Hatton Fight Humor:Di ko pa nabubuksan yung Tostitos ko, tapos na ang laban!
People who fought to get into the packed Merks Bistro sometime in the 1st round of the ght, purchased tickets,and before they could actually see anything, the ght was over! Sorry, no more refunds!
Channel 23 News Reporter TJ Manotoc commented on-air that Pacquiao felt very tired after the trac and long roadtrip from Vegas to Los Angeles a day or two after the ght. To which, the Channels News 23 Anchor quipped: He wasprobably more tired from the road trip than from the recent ght.
Top Ten Things Pacman has been busy the weeks following his ght:Not counting the very grand parades, celebrations and parties thrown in honor of the Pambansang Kamao by ournational and local governments, GMA TV, Governor Chavit Singson, so forth and so on, we observe Manny Pacquiaohas kept himself thoroughly occupied with various high impact activities, corresponding to greater opportunityopening up for him more than ever before. Here is the Top Ten List of items that make the Pacmans schedule postHatton triumph a truly frenetic one indeed:
1. AMBASSADOR OF PEACE: As newly conferred Ambassador of Peace and Goodwill by President GMA, Pacmanwill be supporting and gracing a groundbreaking boxing tournament with members of the military ghtingmembers of the MILF in the ring!
2. GENSAN ECOZONE: Incorporated Gensan Ecozone that will kickstart the economy in his hometown severalnotches.
3. ENDORSEMENTS: Been frenetic busy with endorsements and sponsorship deals including his promotional tourfor San Miguel Beer in Thailand a few days ago.
4. CONQUERING TELEVISION: preparing for a TV sitcom in GMA7 co-starring Onyok and songwriter, Lito Camo.Pacman signed a contract with GMA7 solidifying him as a KAPUSO talent and star.
5. ORGANIZING SPORTS TOURNAMENTS: For example, Pacman produced a DARTS tournament in Los AngelesJune 18,19, 20 and 21, 2009. Ricky Hatton was cordially invited to participate.
6. TRADEMARKING HIS NAME: to keep away wannabes from proting from his name.
7. MERCHANDISING COMPANY: Pacman just had one set up to market Pacman and I presume, Team Pacquiaobranded Merchandise.
8. MANNY PACQUIAO FOUNDATION: Ongoing projects to give back to the community through socially responsible projects and programs such as scholarships, cancer research, and environmental awareness,among others.
9. COLUMNIST: Pacman managed to write 3 Kumbinasyon columns in the month of May, published in Abante,Abante Online and Philboxing.com following his triumph over Hatton.
10. POLITICS: Lets not forget Pacmans preparations for his bid for Congress in 2010! Jinkee Pacquiao conrmedthat this decision to run in 2010 is nal!
With all these major items, it leaves one to wonder when Pacman has any time to rest?
