WALANG balak i-give up ng panganay na anak ni Sen. Manny Pacquiao na si Jimuel ang pagboboksing kapalit ng pag-aartista.
Kayang-kaya raw ng bagong member ng grupong Squad Plus ng Star Magic na pagsabayin ang showbiz, boxing at ang kanyang pag-aaral.
“I think it’s just a matter of time management. Ngayon, I only have school, boxing, and showbiz and since online naman lahat it’s a little bit more flexible.
“The schedule is mas madali i-manage ngayon and I always find time for everything naman, even training. I think kaya naman mai-balance lahat,” pahayag ng binata sa ginanap na Squad Plus media launch recently.
Noong 2019 nagsimula ang career ni Jimuel sa boxing at hinding-hindi raw niya ito kayang kalimutan dahil naging passion na niya ito at naging bahagi na rin ng kanyang sistema.
“Sa ngayon tuloy-tuloy pa rin naman. I always find time to train since yun naman yun naman yung pinakaimportante.
“Since I kind of started late na sa boxing so I have a lot of years na parang kailangan habulin, or so they say. Kaya ko naman siya pagsabayin.
“There’s always time to train and I’m motivated naman when it comes to boxing so kaya naman,” aniya pa.
Natanong naman si Jimuel kung game rin ba siyang pasukin ang mundo ng musika tulad ng nakababata niyang kapatid na si Michael.
“I like music a little bit and siguro one of my hidden talents is beatboxing so that would be one I would showcase if ever. Yung style ko ng beatboxing is competition style. That’s what I’m a fan of.
“So it’s all just beats that go harder and harder. Well I know a few instruments and I sing sometimes but I don’t think that I’m any good siguro. I think I’ll leave that field to my brother.
“I’m very supportive naman kasi me and my brother we’ve always been introverts. Mahiyain kami and now we’re trying to put ourselves out there para mawala or we improve as a person.
“I’m supportive naman of my brother’s music and I’m so proud of him. It’s like my brother’s way of coming out of his shell. I’m very, very happy for him,” paliwanag ng panganay ni Pacquiao.
Pagpapatuloy pa niya, “When it comes to fans naman po, nagulat ako sobra because now uso na yung mga fan pages and mga ganu’n.
“Early on I didn’t have any and then very recently I started seeing a few and I’m just very shocked lang. You know I’m still a newbie here in showbiz.
“Parang unusual sa akin talaga. Du’n ako nagulat. It feels good to know na may supporters ako out there and they’re there for me every time I have a project or every time I have a guesting. They’re always supporting me,” aniya pa.
