pacquiao made his breakthrough moment during the first barrera fight by giving the mexican his only real ko defeat up to this day. pacquiao earned just over a a million. on the behest of his mother, pacquiao willingly gave almost half to charity, himself giving out basic goods and cash to hundreds of poor people lined up just outside his (old) house. he later bought numerous properties and mansions after a string of knock out victories.

Can anyone verify this?
