Manny Pacquiao
Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao, known by the moniker "PacMan," was born on December 17, 1978, and has made a significant mark both as a politician and a retired boxer in the Philippines. Celebrated as one of the all-time boxing greats, Pacquiao has also contributed to his country's legislative processes, serving as a senator from 2016 until 2022.
Renowned for being the sole boxer to secure world championships in eight different divisions, Pacquiao has amassed twelve major world titles throughout his illustrious career. He stands out as the inaugural boxer to claim the lineal championship across five distinct weight categories, to win major titles in four of the prestigious "glamour divisions" (including flyweight, featherweight, lightweight, and welterweight), and uniquely, to maintain world championships over four decades (the 1990s through the 2020s). In 2019, at forty years old, he set a record as the oldest welterweight world champion and became the first to be recognized as a four-time welterweight champion following his victory over Keith Thurman for the WBA (Super) welterweight title. By 2015, Pacquiao's pay-per-view fights had generated $1.2 billion, and Forbes listed him as one of the highest-earning athletes, securing the second spot in 2012 and 2015 and ranking eighth for the decade of the 2010s.
Pacquiao ventured into politics in 2010, initially serving as Sarangani's representative before being elected as a senator. In 2020, he took leadership of the PDP–Laban party.
Beyond his political and boxing careers, Pacquiao has engaged in various activities, including coaching and playing for the Kia/Mahindra team in the Philippine Basketball Association for three seasons and founding the semi-professional Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League. His ventures into entertainment and music have also been noteworthy, with appearances in movies, TV shows, and success in the music industry, evidenced by his PARI-certified platinum albums and singles. A notable highlight includes his performance of "Sometimes When We Touch," which reached number 19 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart in the US after appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Pacquiao is also recognized for his work as an Evangelical Christian preacher, philanthropist, and entrepreneur.
As of 2024, Manny Pacquiao remains an influential figure in boxing, with ambitions to compete in the 2024 Paris Olympics, aiming for a gold medal for the Philippines at age 45. His team is in talks with the Philippine Olympic Committee to explore qualification possibilities. Additionally, he plans to return to the ring for two major fights in 2024, including a much-anticipated rematch with Floyd Mayweather, promising another landmark event in boxing history. These endeavors underscore Pacquiao's ongoing impact and popularity in the sporting world.
Beyond his careers in boxing, politics, and entertainment, he has ventured into various business endeavors, showcasing his entrepreneurial spirit. Pacquiao's business interests span a wide range, including:
Sports: He founded the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL), a semi-professional basketball league in the Philippines, which highlights his investment in sports beyond boxing.
Entertainment and Media: He has produced films and music, contributing to the entertainment industry in the Philippines. His involvement in media also extends to his appearances on television shows and in movies, though these also align with his status as a public figure.
Retail and Merchandising: Pacquiao has launched merchandise lines and has been involved in branding efforts that capitalize on his fame and image.
Real Estate: Like many athletes and public figures, he has invested in real estate, which is a common avenue for entrepreneurial efforts.
Philanthropy: Although not a business venture in the traditional sense, Pacquiao's philanthropic efforts are substantial. He has established and supported various charitable organizations and initiatives, which, while primarily aimed at giving back to the community, also involve significant organizational and financial management.
Through these activities and more, Manny Pacquiao demonstrates a keen interest in business and entrepreneurship, leveraging his fame, wealth, and networks to pursue ventures across different sectors.
