Manny Pacquiao's son Eman opens up on fatherhood and boxing career

Emmanuel Joseph Bacosa Pacquiao, son of boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, has an impressive seven wins, zero losses, and one draw boxing record.

Eman, born in 2004 to Manny and Joanna Rose Bacosa, recently opened up about his relationship with his father.

He shared that he has long understood the circumstances surrounding his parents and matured early, accepting that his father already had his own family.

Despite growing up apart from his father, Eman expressed pride in Manny, stating, "Sobrang saya ko po, nabubusog po ‘yung puso ko."

Eman began his boxing journey at the age of nine in Tagum, Davao, but seriously trained in Japan for five years.

He opened up about being bullied while growing up because he was the son of Pacquiao, and even faced one of his bullies in an early fight.

His passion for boxing was further ignited by his father's career, particularly his fight against Shane Mosley.
