Manny Pacquiao is at the peak of his boxing career
As Manny Pacquiao leaves for the U.S. to prepare for his fight with David Diaz, fans are quite excited as the boxer began showing strong commitment for his training to ensure a great fight although his being one week delay was also a concern for many. Another item that must be disappointing for him now are folks, government and observers, wanting to know how much Pacquiao made in the last fight. Juan Manuel Marquez is also moving up lightweight division to pursue another fighting chance with Manny Pacquiao.
I got the chance to talk to Dong Secuya last Tuesday. This Philippine Internet pioneer and site owner of PhilBoxing and Pacland is optimistic. In this video interview. he believes Pacquiao is at his peak and we can all expect a good fight to watch this June.

Manny Pacquiao: a time to focus
Manny Pacquiao emerged victorious against his fight versus Juan Manuel Marquez but was saddled with a lot of intrigue. A few friends who doubted his win but got the chance to watch the fight once more said that he indeed deserved it. His bagging of awards were certainly worthy too.
Regardless, it will be best for Pacquiao to focus on his career and other activities that will put him in a better disposition after retiring from boxing. He doesn't need either to get into politics just to help the people around him and the country. There are other ways, like how he is helping now, to help those asking for it.
This is the first Pacquiao fight that I wasn't able to watch on its exact time and date of fight. The admiration is no longer as strong as before. His seriousness in this sport is no longer the same. I guess if he gets his boxing groove back, a lot of us will be excited once more.
