Jimuel Pacquiao says this is the most important boxing lesson he learned from dad Manny


MANILA — Jimuel Pacquiao is showing flashes of a young Manny Pacquiao in a recent video posted on social media by the eight-division champion.

The 19-year-old firstborn son of the Filipino senator and boxing icon is raring to follow in his father’s footsteps in the sweet science and is training religiously to get there.

“The most important thing I've learned since training with my dad is positioning and balance,” Jimuel said.

“He says that's where power comes from. Balance, so that's the secret of a fighter,” he added.

And while the young Pacquiao seems to have the hand speed, reflexes, and agility of a promising fighter, it will surely take a lot of time to get where he wants to be.

Nonetheless, Jimuel is eager to prove himself and with the backing of Team Pacquiao, he may just very well get there. — LA, GMA News
