Overview

The GenSan boys sold doughnuts and worked construction (once Pacquiao didn't eat for four days because his employer didn't pay him). If one member of the group had money, rice was purchased for the group. Manny was so good-hearted that he would often forgo his share so someone else could have more. When other boxers would leave the gym as a group to get a bite, Pacquiao would hang back, never wanting to be a charity case. In a letter to his mother, he told her not to worry: "Life is difficult here. There are times when I eat rice only once a day."

"It amazes me that he is the same guy that walked in the first day," says trainer Freddie Roach. "His work ethic is exactly the same. Guys get comfortable; guys get lazy after winning a world title. Guys get cocky. He hasn't. He trains his ass off every day. He has many distractions outside the ring, a lot of chaos, a lot of drama, but he can separate that. Whatever else is going on in his life, he leaves it outside."
