Manny Page #8

a good father to his children,

and that's it. That's...

For the family, yeah.

For the family.

lt's true. lt's real.

So that's why l was...

That's why l am blessed.

You know, I grew up in boxing,

I love boxing.

But, maybe one more fight,

and that's it.

After the fight with Mayweather,

win or lose, last fight.

Of course, we're gonna win.

But after Mayweather, yeah.

FREDDlE:
There's one thing

about my fighter.

When it's time, it's time.

You know, the thing is,

l went overboard

and l pay for that now.

So the thing is, when it's time,

l will tell Manny,

and he will...

l'm almost 99% sure

he will listen to me,

because we have great rapport

with each other,

and he knows l'm an honest person,

and l would never tell him

something that wasn't true.

So, if l see him slowing down

or slipping,

the first time l see that,

l'll say it's over.

Well, in his talks with me,

he's given me a date in 201 3,

where he's gonna hang it up.

And so l expect that

after this Bradley fight,

that he'll probably have about three

more fights,

and that'll be the end.

ALEX:
Manny is just a dog,

that keeps running

or a horse that keeps racing,

or anything else like those guys.

That's just business that they're in.

Use you up, throw you away,

and get the next guy in there.

Make him, promote him, make him the

next biggest thing in boxing, and...

MICHAEL:
Even if Manny retires from

boxing, I'll still be with Manny.

As long as he wants me to be around,

I'll be there.

That's why I spend so much time

in the Philippines,

even when he's not boxing.

What I want

and what I am striving for is

I want to be in a position

to supplement Manny's income

so he can sustain the same lifestyle,

after we're not making 60, 70 million

dollars from boxing a year.

For him and his family.

ALEX:
I'd be happy for him,

you know what I mean?

I'd be happy for him that he is not

being used,

and that he gets to go off,

and do his own thing.

And do what he feels that he wants

to do.

lf he feels like changing his life,

and focusing on his political career

and his religion is what

he wants to do, l'd be happy for him.

But he is not my meal ticket,

like he is for these guys.

BOB:
People have asked me,

why did I match Timothy

with Manny Pacquiao.

Timothy Bradley has the hand speed,

he has the foot speed,

he has the game plan

to be very, very competitive

with Manny Pacquiao.

ALEX:
It's important to Bob

as a gentleman...

That's the only thing that's

important to Bob.

If you're my fighter,

and he's my fighter,

I walk in, and you lose,

I'm still winning.

And I get 30% of you,

and I get 30% of him.

I get the whole pie.

I get it all.

Because you're coming with a champion,

you're leaving with a champion.

You don't lose.

[AUDlENCE CHEERlNG]

COMMENTATOR 1 :
One night,

this incredible ride

that Pacquiao has taken us all on,

this devastating unbeaten streak,

in the heavier weight classes,

will come to an end.

Can Tim Bradley make tonight

that night?

COMMENTATOR 2:
Hard left-hand

by Pacquiao down.

Best punch of the round so far.

Yet another slick left hand

on Tim Bradley's jaw.

Two big pops for Pacquiao.

COMMENTATOR 1 :
And the best

punches of the fight.

Another straight left hand.

COMMENTATOR 2:
The difference

so far has been,

Pacquiao can hurt Bradley,

Bradley doesn't seem to be able

to return the favor.

COMMENTATOR 1 :

This is a Pacquiao fury.

The right hook lands.

COMMENTATOR 2:

He's moving his head down to survive.

Another mark of the power differential

in favor of Manny Pacquiao.

COMMENTATOR 1 :

What must it be like for a

Champion of the World like Tim Bradley

undefeated in his prime,

catch a guy just at the right time,

fight as hard as he can,

and it's just not good enough.

COMMENTATOR 2:
And lose every round.

[BOXlNG BELL RlNGlNG]

ANNOUNCER:
Scores about 1-15, 1-13,

for Pacquiao.

1-1 5, 1-1 3

for Bradley.

And 1-1 5, 1-1 3

to the winner by split decision,

a new WBO Welterweight

Champion of the World,

The Desert Storm,

Timothy

Bradley!

COMMENTATOR 1 :

I don't think we are blind.

And I think that is a terrible,

bogus decision.

COMMENTATOR 2:
I have no comment.

I'm totally confused.

COMMENTATOR 1 :
Timothy Bradley has

scored an upset split decision victory

over Manny Pacquiao,

God only knows how.

BOB:
Respected people

scored it 11 to 1 , 10-2,

and then to hear scores

like we heard tonight,

and it's just unfathomable.

What we saw tonight was ridiculous.

That's the only word to describe it.

It was ridiculous.

This wasn't really a close fight.

But I'm happy for Tim,

because he's a lovely young man.

and he can make

a lot of money now.

[AUDlENCE CHEERlNG]

Don't be sad, don't be sad.

Keep thanking God, praise God...

You know, God has good a plan.

God has a good plan for this.

The plan of God is better

than what we think.

-ALL:
Amen.

-Amen.

The plan of God is better,

better than what our plan is.

Okay? Don't be sad, rejoice!

And be glad and happy, okay?

[APPLAUSE]

That's how we love this boxing.

But,

you know,

I respect the decision.

But,

100% I believe that I won the fight,

it's okay.

[PEOPLE CHEERlNG]

But anyway, in your heart,

you know who win the fight.

It's okay. That's part of the game.

We accept that.

So...

I'm still here, I can fight.

I can fight.

And,

until next time, thank you, thank you.

NARRATOR:
: Boxing is a cruel sport.

You leave your blood, heart

and soul on the canvas.

But you can't always control

your fate.

In the eyes of the world,

Manny Pacquiao defeated his opponent.

But once victory is stolen from you,

what are you left with?

Loss is always a reminder of what

matters in life.

Your people, your family, your faith.

WOMAN:
We are here to praise,

to worship God,

not only for Mr. Pacquiao,

but his use

as an instrument

for these people...

To spread the gospel of God.

He inspires the young people

because he came from nothing.

He didn't have a name before.

Then he became one of the biggest men

here in our country, in the world.

[MAN SPEAKlNG]

As long as he wants to fight again,

he can do both,

because he still has his potential.

But he can also be used in the

ministry, because of his influence.

Like what happened to me

in my last fight.

l prayed. l believed 1 00%...

...that l would win, l prayed.

But what happened to me?

You saw the result.

But l was not sad.

Because what is important to me

is my relationship with God.

[AUDlENCE CHEERlNG]

Before l could not resist the devil...

When sexy ladies would pass...

My eyes would follow them...

But now that l have a strong spirit.

l feed my spirit,

l am blind to other women.

But the only and most beautiful woman

that l keep my eyes on is my wife.

JlNKEE:
I'm happy people

look up to him.

Being a Bible Ambassador is

something that I can be

proud of him forever.

But the most important thing is

that he can encourage people

to read the Bible,
