NA-TOUCH ang mga followers at tagasuporta ni Manny Pacquiao sa naging mensahe ni Gary Valenciano para sa Pambansang Kamao matapos nitong matalo si Timothy Bradley sa bakbakan nila noong Linggo.
Pinuri ni Gary ang naging desisyon ni Pacman na mag-retire na sa boksing para maibigay niya ang kanyang mas mahabang panahon sa pagsisilbi sa bayan. Narito ang kabuuang mensahe ni Mr. Pure Energy na ipinost niya sa kanyang Instagram account.
“For years he has fought the fights. He’s won some and lost some. But every time he stood on that ring, he carried an entire country on his shoulders. “Some from around the world have even come to find interest in us just because of him.
“Like us he’s made mistakes…of which he’s had to dreadfully pay for. But always for us, he’s trained, and fought, and bled, and won many crucial battles. “Today he will stand in that ring again, and fight. And perhaps for one final battle, he will once more unite a nation.
Even those who may hold a grudge against him, will somehow be drawn to the screen as they see him try to win again…for them. “Thank you Manny Pacquiao…for the courage, the encouragement, the inspiration, the strength, the passion, the faith, the victories, and even the losses that have taught you valuable lessons in and out of that ring.
“Today with God in your heart He will once again show us all that even if this career didn’t start with Him, it will end with Him. And for me this is what makes you a true champion; our champion…His champion. God bless you Manny Pacquiao.”
