Eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao admits that he is fed up with politics and has repeatedly considered quitting his job as senator in the Philippines - a position he secured in the national elections in 2016. "I feel dismayed, discouraged. I want to let go because I'm not used to politicking," Pacquiao told The Philippine Star earlier this week. Click Here To Read More]
I totally agree with you about Reagan but are you sure Trump legitimately graduated from business school? I'm sure if his marks weren't good enough he was given a pass because of his daddy's empire and influence. Maybe he graduated on his own but I have serious doubts. He's not book smart. The guy is totally inarticulate and speaks worse English than most immigrants. He's been handed everything since he was in diapers and thus has never had to actually advance his level of knowledge on virtually any topic or gain a reasonable grasp of his only spoken language. Forget about the president having to be an excellent public speaker, he doesn't even speak well compared to the average joe.
Yeah, you're probably right. Trump seems dumber than Reagan
Unfortunately, Pac, Gods guidance ain't gonna help at all because it's just a figment of your imagination. Just like winning a decision in Australia was a figment of your imagination.
Jeff Horn is the Devil, Beelzebub, and Baal. He's out to get you, Manny.
It's God's disciples that fvcked the country in the first place, Pac.
All that tax-free status, horde's of poor, uneducated plebians to exploit for cheap labour by multinationals, and a rampant culture of general ignorance equivalent to the 16th C Roman Empire.
Jeff "The Devil" Horn....
Meh, Trump graduated from Wharton Business School, which is kind of prestigious here in America and ran a billion dollar empire.
Not a fan of his, but totally different than just getting socked in the head for 20 years.

Id say Reagan probably had the highest of all the above mentioned. Arnold and Pac are probably about even and Trumpster not too far behind them. But lets not pretend IQ level makes a differnce anyways when we've had guys like Bush Jr. in office. he makes Trump look like a computer nerd lol
You serious about Ronnie Reagan? He was an illiterate, b-movie actor bozo who was more interested in playing the tough guy than passing reasonable legislation. The guy did untold damage to the US economy, education system and foreign relations particularly in the middle east. He was a typical corporate puppet who did whatever his big bank buddies and military cohorts told him to do. He was a total duschebag hack although anyone is better than Trump, even Bush Jr with all his blunders and disasters. At least he had a sense of humor. The only thing that's funny to Trump is mocking his enemies to feed his massive, blimp sized, over inflated ego and that ****e got old real quick once anyone with half a brain realized he has absolutely no plan whatsoever for his presidency.
Dude didnt graduate middle. Gtfo with that politician sht lol.
Pac, vitali etc these guys are just dumb boxers not fit for those kinda stuff.
You seriously think the politicians in power in the bulk of industrialized countries are doing a good job because of their background in politics and their secondary and post secondary scholastic achievements? Smart and supposedly qualified politicians do not automatically equal competent leadership and successful governance. Integrity and conscience is seriously lacking in the bulk of blatantly corrupt leaderships across the world. They all bend to their corrupt masters. It's not a question of intelligence, it's a matter of honesty and transparency and succumbing to bribes and personal favors.
I'm willing to bet Vitali is vastly more intelligent than most boxers and, according to the posts here on BS, most boxing fans. How many languages do you speak again?

Trump had no experience, expertise, degree or qualifications and yet is somehow was able to convince enough idiots that he was capable of holding the highest political position in the U.S. so that kinda destroys that theory. Lets also not forget Gov. Schwarzenegger or President Reagan. I think its fair to say just about anyone can be a politician and if your intentions are good like i believe Pacmans were, even better.

Reagan was an idiot that went to college at little Eureka College.
He even took pride in the fact that he didn't understand geopolitics all that well.
Arnold Schwawrzenegger is actually a really smart man with a super high-IQ.
Much higer than Bush & Reagan
wait, Pac is fed up with the politics of Arum controlling him like a guinea pig, or the paper filling he does in office which he calls ''political service.''
In America and the UK it's usually ideal for government figures to have some sort of degree in a field or studied political sciences to understand how politics works anyways.
Politics is not a business for "the people", it's a business for the greedy, the corrupt. They don't like outsiders coming into the fold, they don't have anything to leverage against them, no blackmail. People who start local and make it big in politics have all had to sell out, piss away their souls and if push came to shove, there WILL be some dirt on them to keep them in line.
Dealing with politicians, has taught Manny to shed his trusting/gullible nature for a cynical mentality.
He should have become a senator 10 years ago, that way, he would’ve learned how to deal with Arum.
As far as Manny’s boxing career, he’s still viable as an elite fighter, but it’s going to be at 140 instead of 147. Forget about the result (which was questionable), Manny’s vaunted strength and stamina has diminished (who’s muscled Manny the way Horn did? and when’s the last time Manny has faded like he did in the Horn fight?). Despite that, I think 140 is wide open and he’s the favorite against everyone sub 140 (although I would favor Mikey Garcia at this point).
Did Roach still not get paid? He seems a bit sour when he says Pac isn't doing a good job as a boxer? Why the f*ck not? He beat Horn and was robbed. He's not looking great but he's 38 so understandable.
It's good to see Freddie has got his back ....it's just a pity that Manny won't heed the advice.
He'll end up losing to Horn again or substandard fighters like Khan or the likes .
Mannys done .....
And his masters degree in public admin is for dumb people too, huh?
GTFO with that sheet.
Comparing Pac and V. Klitschko is ludicrous.
Yeah one has a PH.D and the other didn't make it to 4th grade.
Unbelievable what people will compare.
translation: this politician shiiet is svcking me dry!!
too late now manny. too late to turn back now. if you come back to boxing you'll just become another roy jones.
pac's mistake was being too damm nice. it's ok to help people in need every once in a while, BUT you dont go fvcking building a whole town houses to live for free! you dont go building a damm hospital.
Being too nice, and believing everyone else is nice too.
Arum is a piece of crap too..
PAC gets knocked senseless by CRAWFORD,SPENCE,THURMAN. He hasn't had a KO since FLOYD called out to take test back in 09. That was Politricks back then and now PAC is experiencing Politricks on the other side. Arum has used him up enough. Retire and be with family sounds mighty good right now.
The power of mainstream media is really unbelievable! This is more stupid than the "WMD in Iraq". IMO, you should not comment on things you didn't know about.I don't live in the P.I., so yeas, I read CNN, Politico, NY Times. I guess they're all "fake news?"

I guarantee all those have double Pacquiao's IQ.
