Mommy D hurt Pacquiao kept shoulder injury from her

Now that Filipino boxing champ Manny Pacquiao revealed that he is suffering from a shoulder injury, his mother Dionisia or Mommy D admitted that she felt bad that her son kept the health issue from her.

"Bilang nanay, wala akong pagkukulang sa kanila. Marami akong advice sa kanila eh," she said in a report on GMA-7's "24 Oras" on Tuesday.

"Hindi niya sinabi sa nanay niya na, 'Ma, masakit dito.' Hindi niya sinabi," she added.

Mommy D also said that if she found out about the injury earlier, she would have kept her son from fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Sunday.

"Bakit niya sinugal buhay niya? Ano ang buhay niya?! Masira pa nga ang bakal, ang buhay pa kaya niya?!" Mommy D said.

"Kung alam ko lang, patigilin ko siya. Mag-extend nalang ng isang buwan. Sa sunod buwan nalang lumaban. Sinabi ko nga sa kanya, tiniis ko ang pagsama-sama sa iyo. Hindi ko kaya magbiyahe. Titiisin ko," she said.

"Sabi ng Birhen, alalayan mo ang anak mo. Wala akong magawa. Sinuway niya ang ano ko. Takbo ako sa CR, iyak ako," she added.

Mommy D said she was worried about her son's upcoming surgery.

Retirement, balato

Because of Pacquiao's recent shoulder injury, his mom renewed calls for Pacquiao to retire from boxing.

"Do not boxing na... Matagal na akong nagsabi na 'Huwag ka nang mag-renew ng kontrata'," Mommy D said.

She also has a message for those who constantly asked "balato" from Pacquiao.

"Ang tao, walang katapusan, walang kasawa-sawaan kahit hirap pa," she said.

Pacquiao's mom reminded them that the money her son was enjoying was the fruit of his hard work. Plus, Mommy D said that they never asked money from other people even when they were still poor.

"Nabuhay tayo sa kahirapan. Sabi niya [Pacquiao], 'Wala na kayong hingian kung mag-stop ako.' Hindi ako maghingi! Saan mo binibigay ang pera?!" Mommy D

"Binibigay mo lang kung saan-saan. Sa kahirapan ba natin, may tao ba na nagbigay sa atin? Walang taong nagbigay kahit piso!" she added. -Trisha Macas/NB, GMA News
