The Filipino world champion professional boxer, Manny Pacquiao, decided to visit Greece for a few days along with his wife and some friends according to his posts on his social media accounts, Twitter and Facebook.

Manny Pacquiao admires ancient civilization and Ancient Greece, therefore, it wouldn’t be possible to come in Greece and not to visit the numerous archaeological sites of the country. He has even hired a mini-bus to have all his family and friends on board.

The famous professional boxer comes from a small village of 2,500 residents at south Philippines and lived in great poverty. Today is among the richest athletes in the world with over 40 million dollar income, while he has recentely got involved in politics. His main goal is to fight against poverty and has been elected as Member of Parliament.

“When I was a child, I struggled to find something to eat. Today, my biggest fight is not in the ring, but in my country, which I want to get out of poverty,” he has previously stated.
