No matter how Manny Pacquiao tried, he couldn\’t get knockout the desire of his son Jimuel to do boxing.

The eight-division world champion wants to keep his son away from the sports because he knows how dangerous it is, but his passion for the sport is passed down to Jimuel, who is trying to pursue a boxing career.

\”Kung ako tatanungin mo, ayaw ko, kasi hindi ko kayang panoorin \’yung anak kong lumalaban,\” Manny said in an interview with Rappler Talk.

\”Kaya lang sa tuwing sinasabi ko sa kanya, binabalik niya, \’Daddy \’di ba, boxing is your passion? Same with me, like you, boxing is my passion also. So what are we going to do?\’ Tameme ako, hindi ako makapagsalita.\”

His son is training in the United States and is having Jonas Sultan, a former world title contender, as his sparring partner.

Will Jimuel pursue a professional career in boxing soon?

It is not very far from reality as he already made some matches back home in the Philippines. And with Pacquiao conceding on the thought of stopping his son, will he now teach the younger Pacquiao to become fantastic just like him?

Two-weight world Mexican champ Luis Nery (35 wins – 1 loss – 0) mocked the undefeated “Japanese monster” Naoya Inoue (26 wins – 0 loss) as ordinary and overrated hyping their fight at Tokyo Dome in Japan May 6, 2024.

31-year old Inoue will defend his undisputed super bantamweight title against Nery.

29-year-old challenger Nery has the WBC and Ring magazine bantamweight titles plus the WBC super bantamweight title from 2020 to May 2021.

On the other hand, the undisputed Inoue who holds WBA and IBF titles plus WBC and WBO belts has never lost except a decision with Filipino ‘flash’ Nonito Donaire last 2011.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
