It’s good news hearing that Manny Pacquiao has been released from the hospital and is back to being 100%. I’m sure Manny at 50% is still in better shape than most of us at 100%. According to Manny’s adviser Michael Koncz, Manny Pacquiao is already back to work; but not in the ring or in politics. Manny is filming his sitcom ‘Show Me Da Manny’. However, all might be well in the Pacquiao household, but there’s nothing funny over the recent health scare and the negotiations with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
“Manny’s fine. His spirits are good and we’re actually filming at the studio right now. It’s his sitcom, ‘Show Me The Manny’. Manny’s bounced back 100 percent. He’s resilient. That’s just the way that Manny is. He’s like the energizer bunny rabbit. He can just keep going and going.” Michael Koncz, Fanhouse

“And we promise you that we will make you laugh, and have a weekly hilarious evening!? Pacquiao, MB.com
It’s all well and good that Manny Pacquiao is back to filming, working, and entertaining. But there was nothing funny about Pacquiao’s recent health scare or his current round of negotiations with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
