PRE–TEST
‘The success of a person depends on how he actualized his thought and feelings.
Success is not measured on intelligence alone, but rather putting all together all the
aspects of his life into reality. Today is a life changing life story of a famous man in the
world of boxing. His humble beginning until his success is an inspiration to all of us that
poverty is not a hindrance but rather it is an inspiration.
RECAP
On the last lesson, we talk on the aspect of self, on how we need to put emphasis on
developing on all the aspect. We also discussed on the context-dependent selves.
Knowing the strengths and weakness of all of these helps us to empower ourselves and
reach our goals and aspiration.
LESSON
It’s 1990 in the province of General Santos in the Philippines. Manny Pacquiao is
12 years old. Pacquiao often speaks of his debt to his maternal uncle, Sardo Mejia, who
introduced him to boxing after he dropped out of school. It was this moment that would
spark an unforeseen passion and drive in Pacquiao to be one of the best boxers in the
entire world. According to his autobiography, he describes watching Mike Tyson’s
shocking defeat to James “Buster Douglas” in 1990 on television with his uncle as an
experience that “changed (his) life forever”.
In his hometown an open-for-all boxing match and beat every opponent who came.
He was on the road of transforming himself from a lanky school dropout to a junior
boxing champion.
Despite his success, his family was still living in extreme poverty and hunger.
They became so desperate to the point that his father had to kill his pet dog for dinner.
Pacquiao couldn’t forgive his father for what he did so he left home, slept on cardboard
boxes, and sold bread on the streets just to make a meager living. At that point, he also
used boxing and won for $2 each, as means of escaping poverty.
He soon moved to Manila and continued winning several boxing matches, but
given the increased standards of living, he wasn’t making enough to survive. He soon
got a job at a local gym doing gardening and construction while boxing on the side. He
trained crazily all day and all night when possible, waking up the earliest and leaving the
gym at the latest possible time. Early on, his perseverance and determination to be a
part of the boxing world swayed him to cheat and add some weights to meet the
featherweight class requirements.
As the fights got more serious, Pacquiao started getting more famous as well. He
would beat fighters from South Korea, Japan and Thailand and at very young age of 19,
he won his first World Champion by beating Chachai Sasakul, the reigning World Boxing
Council (WBC) World Flyweight Champion at that time. The turning point for Pacquiao
came when he won against world-class featherweight boxer Marco Antonio Barrera at the
Alamodome in Texas with a TKO. After that fight, he was recognized internationally as a
force to be reckoned with.
Today, at 37, he is one of the most respected boxers. Despite his loss during the
Mayweather match, he still has won the hearts of many boxing fans both in the
Philippines and worldwide. His one-of-a-kind story will continue to inspire and it will
always portray the journey of what millions of Filipinos continue to aspire.
