After losing a devastating knockout to Juan
Manuel Marquez, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao has rumored showing some signs of
Parkinson’s disease. According to Dr. Rustico Jimenez, President of Private
Hospitals Association of the Philippines and a leading neurologist in the
country said that during an interview with Pacquiao he saw some early signs of Parkinson’s
disease with the Pacman.
Jimenez said: “Even though his reflexes are
quick, I noticed the movement – it’s just another view, my personal view – but
it seems like there are early signs. There are some movements that you will
notice with his hands. It’s in the hands, and not the head, where you can
easily see this. It twitches a little bit. Although I haven’t seen it up close,
I think I am seeing that there are some signs.” Interview made via ABS-CBN
news.
Although Pacquiao’s team denied the rumored instead
release the medical approval from his doctor that he is physically fit for the
next fight. Is it really the right time to get retire? Should he just focus in
his family and be a public servant in the country? Not to mention his
obligation as a spiritual member in his new religion. Does he need to prove
anything in the name of boxing, while everyone surely thinks he is the champion
no matter what happen?
Parkinson disease is common to any boxer or
person who always had fallen in the traumatic head injury or the frequently
shaken the position of the brain inside the skull. Coach Freddie Roach is one
of the examples that had this disease while in his boxing career. If Dr.
Jimenez is right maybe this is the right time for him to just focus in his
political career and be in the comfort of watching outside the boxing ring. Meanwhile in an interview with the Pacman, he firmly confirmed and determine to rise and fight again, meaning retiring is not an option right now.
Everything that a person's dreamed has already
in the hands of the Pacman: business, mansion, flashy cars, fame, wealth, family and power,
what else does Manny Pacquiao need for?
