Manny Pacquiao’s worst moment was defeat against Timothy Bradley – Boxing News
While most fans would think Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao’s worst moment in life was his shocking knockout loss to nemesis Juan Manuel Marquez, the truth is something else. A recent interview of the former WBO welterweight titlist Manny Pacquiao was
published on Daily Mail. The Filipino icon’s answer to the question probing his life’s worst event was his loss to Timothy Bradley, which happened earlier this year on June 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
“Probably the fight against Tim Bradley. If you lose you lose, but I was sure that I won. None of his punches hurt me,” said Pacquiao when asked about his life’s worst moment.
The interview was personal and Pacquiao spoke about a lot of stuff he has never spoken of. For instance, the Filipino iterated that he would have been a tailor or owner of a brand if he was not a boxer.
“I was a tailor when I was younger, so maybe I would have owned my own store. Boxing has given me the platform to get into politics but even without it I like to think a path would have been made for me to get into politics,” said Pacquiao when asked as
to what he would have been if not a boxer.
Pacquiao has become the center of attention of many critics and lovers after his knockout loss to Marquez earlier this month on December 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The Pac-man was leading the showdown just when he ran into Marquez’s trap. He was knocked
out cold by his all time biggest rival.
It seems like Pacquiao has learned from his mistakes. When asked about an advice he would like to give others, the Filipino stated, “When you think you are 100 per cent ready you're probably not.”
The advice is more like Pacquiao’s reflection on his past. His last two fights ended up in losses. The first one came at the hands of Bradley, but since it was a controversial decision, Pacquiao was not bothered with it. However, his loss to Marquez was
clean, proving that the Filipino is near his career’s end.
