Manny Pacqauio arrested.

So, he should punch himself?

I think there is a general difference in how people see a "common man" or national sports idol enter politics then someone who's born into it. Like Vitali Klitschko or Alexis Arguello. The people love these guys and don't really see them the same way they view typical politicians.

Lets all pretend Manny is a saint, you only see what he wants you to see stop talking like you know the guy personally.

I think most boxers would be praised for punching a politician. Politicians are universally hated.

Anyways its probably fake. If u know about politics there its nothing but lies and BS. Look at this, this article says dude was throwing rocks and firing guns at Pacs people:





According to the Manila Times, San Jose barangay chairman Alfredo Belgica was damn near broken in half by Pacquiao and his bodyguards after the former tried to stop the congressman and his group from distributing sacks of rice and money to residents of General Santos City. When Belgica, a supporter of the incumbent city mayor Darlene Antonio-Custodio who is running opposite Pacquiao’s friend councilor Ronnel Rivera, threatened to file charges against Pacquiao for vote buying, the beatdown ensued, leaving the local official with contusions and bruises in the face and various parts of the body.

The report also said that Pacquiao and his bodyguards were taken into custody and brought to the General Santos City police command based at Camp Fermin Lira Jr. for questioning.

That’s the side of Belgica, but as we all know during election season in the Philippines, there are always two sides – sometimes even more – to a story.

Not surprisingly, Pacquiao’s camp has a different recollection of how the event transpired that led to Belgica getting his chops licked.

According to Jennifer Solis’ report on radio dzBB, it was Belgica who started the fracas when he allegedly threw rocks and fired several gunshots aimed at Pacquiao’s employees. The group was on its way to Barangay San Jose to deliver sacks of rice to their headquarters when the barangay chairman supposedly began ringing up gunshots and throwing rocks in their direction, resulting in nine of the congressman’s employees getting hurt.

Incidents like this are actually par for the course at this time in the Philippines. This doesn’t even register on the scale if it were any other person. But because it’s Manny Pacquiao, it’s making the headlines and really, for all the wrong reasons. It just goes to show that even the golden son of the Philippines isn’t immune from political drama.

I dont doubt that its BS at all. Same reason I dont join the handjob party when Floyd gets a bad headline, or Broner has a case dropped. Same here, Im not gonna celebrate allegations against Pac... Allegations arent ****. Prove its true and Ill listen.

Merely pointing out the obvious double standard that happens far too often around here when it comes to fighters not named Pacquiao.

Was watching a show on HBO called Vice that covered Politics in the Philippines. This is tame compared to everything that usually happens between political rivals there. You ***ers are being drama queens!

Pacquiao gets TONS of hate on NSB though so I don't really understand the double standards you're talking about. Floyd and Pac are clearly the two most hated on fighters (as well as loved) amd broner is quickly making his way up there lol.

LOL because it happens in a country that sees a lot of bad things happen in politics that makes it OK. That's good to know.

Nope I just don't care. I really could care about Pac's political career it means nothing to me!

[Pretty Boy32]

he's a disgrace to the sport and scumbag.

he should have his children taken off him.

[Fetta]

Fact is we will never know what really happened. If it was Pac then its already covered up.
