On May 1, 1995, Manny Pacquiao won a six-round decision over Rocky Palma in Cavite, Philippines, pushing his record to 3-0. They both weighed 107 pounds, but Pacquiao had weights in his pocket to qualify for the minimum weight requirement of the division. Seventeen days later, Mario Barrios was born in San Antonio.

Pacquiao and his wife were assessed a $55.8 million tax bill, including penalties and interest, for allegedly failing to completely pay what he owed between 2008 and 2009, taking issue with his failure to report U.S. earnings. Pacquiao claimed he paid the taxes in the U.S.

Manny Pacquiao, the legendary boxer, did light training at the Las Vegas Raiders' training facility as he prepares for his return to the ring at 46.

Like virtually all the fighters in his generation, WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios grew up watching and drawing inspiration from Manny Pacquiao.

Pacquiao married his wife, Jinkee, in 1999. The two met at a shopping mall through Jinkee's uncle, who served as a trainer for Manny at the time. Manny "courted her persistently" for three months, according to The Philippine Star, and the two married as his boxing career was taking off.
