Manny Pacquiao is a man of many talents. He’s best known, of course, for being one of the greatest boxers in the world. He’s an eight-division champion and a surefire bet for induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame upon his retirement.
But Pacquiao is far more than just a fighter. He’s a member of Congress in the Philippines and has aspirations of higher political office. He’s been mentioned as a future president. He’s a player/coach in the Philippine Basketball League, he’s a recording artist and a well-known pitch man. A movie on his life has been released. He’s also serving as a judge in the Miss Universe pageant in Miami Beach, Fla., on Sunday.
He’s in the midst of talks to line up what would be the richest fight in boxing history, a long-awaited and hoped for match against pound-for-pound champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.
But Pacquiao apparently still has time to ponder a career change. Recently, he worked out with the hope of becoming a professional wrestler. He was even given assistance by legendary comedian Garry Shandling.
So, how did it go? Well, you’ll have to watch the video below to find out.
