On December 7, 2008, against the backdrop of the global economic crisis, Las Vegas staged a boxing fight called "100 million dollars". The total prize money for the game is up to $100 million, with the winner receiving $65 million and the loser receiving $35 million. The two sides are the famous Oscar de la Hoya (hereinafter referred to as De La Hoya) and the Philippine boxing champion Manny Pacquiao.

In the world of professional boxing, the boxing ring that countless boxing fans are crazy about has always been dominated by tall, strong Europeans and Americans, and Asians rarely have the opportunity to show their faces. Even if Asians appear occasionally, they are fleeting, unable to stand their ground in the ring, and no one will remember their names. It was not until Manny Pacquiao appeared that the long-term monopoly of European and American boxing in the world of boxing was finally broken.

Pacquiao was born in the Philippines, where he and his younger brother lived on his parents' farm as a child. Due to his poor family, he dropped out of school at the age of 12 and came to General Santos with his younger brother. At that time, the brothers often wandered around doing nothing. Later, he came to Manila to sell cigarettes along the streets, but he was not willing to be just a cigarette hawker, he liked boxing. From a very young age, he regularly watched fight videos of famous boxing champions such as Larry Holmes, Frazier and George Foreman. The tapes were rented by him with the money he earned selling cigarettes. He used all the time to train hard, looking forward to becoming a boxing champion in the future. Others laughed at his wishful thinking, believing that his small figure was simply not suitable for this physically demanding sport. But instead of being discouraged, he trained harder and more devoted.

At the age of 16, Pacquiao ushered in his first professional game, and then maintained an 11-game unbeaten record. Just before his 20th birthday, he won the WBC bantamweight world title. Then he rose to super lightweight to challenge Morales, who was tall and arm-length, but ended in failure. After the loss, he reflected on himself and devoted himself to training even more desperately. In the subsequent match against Morales, he won. But many believe that Morales's defeat was caused by too much weight loss, and his victory was a fluke.

Subsequently, Pacquiao and Morales launched the third battle. In this game, he unexpectedly knocked down Morales three times, winning the "Battle of the Century" that attracted the world's attention and made Asians proud. Because he had beaten two other famous Mexican boxing champions before, he won the reputation of "Asian Destroyer" and deduced the myth of "One Asian Destroyer Destroys 3 Mexican Musketeers", winning the respect of the world .
In early 2008, Pacquiao had a rematch with Mexico's current WBC lightweight champion Marquez. As the most famous boxer in Mexico at that time, Marquis naturally assumed the heavy responsibility of defending the honor of Mexican boxing. As a result, Pacquiao narrowly defeated Marquis and continued to play the role of "Mexican Assassin".
Pacquiao's outstanding performance has attracted the attention of the world's boxing superstar and boxing agent, the American golden boy De La Hoya. Because of his superb boxing skills and handsome appearance, De La Hoya is extremely popular among the world's boxing fans, especially female boxing fans. High popularity. The two agreed to have an "unequal" fantasy showdown before Christmas 2008.
Before the match, most people, including Pacquiao's boxing fans, voted for De La Hoya for victory, and some even believed that even if De La Hoya won in the end, it was not worth showing off. This is because De La Hoya weighs 6 kg heavier than Pacquiao and is 12 cm taller than his 1.68-meter opponent. Compared with the tall and strong De La Hoya, Pacquiao, who is thin and not very skilled in boxing, is difficult to be favored by everyone. But the hardships of childhood have shaped Pacquiao's strong and unyielding character. The "weak" Pacquiao said meaningfully: "Many people say that De La Hoya is taller than me, but my body has been growing, and I am not as small as others think. Before the match with De La Hoya, he paid out of his own pocket and bought On the day of the game, the Filipino people took the initiative to wait in front of the TV. That day also became a "truce day" between the Philippine military and the rebels, because both sides believed that Pacquiao's The game is more important than anything.
After the start of the game, Pacquiao was not as conservative as people predicted before the game, and he bravely launched a fierce attack on the mighty De La Hoya. De La Hoya, who wanted to teach Pacquiao a lesson in the game, obviously did not expect that his opponent's footsteps were so flexible that he could not block Pacquiao by the fence and guard the rope to attack in turn; De La Hoya also did not expect that Pacquiao's The boxing technique was so fast that he was dazzled, and he was distracted; Hoya didn't even expect that the opponent's fist was so heavy, hitting as accurately and hard as a cruise missile, making his face bruised and staggering... Originally expected De La Hoya's fans who came from behind were completely disappointed after the seventh and eighth rounds. Pacquiao blocked De La Hoya in the corner of the ring with a non-stop stormy attack, and De La Hoya had no power to fight back, and the game became a one-sided situation. De La Hoya was forced to give up the fight before the ninth round. After defeating De La Hoya with a weak victory in this "unequal" showdown, Pacquiao has won the title of two levels of boxing champions, which has also enabled Pacquiao to continuously win the top professional match against the United States and Mexico. Boxer's 9-game winning streak.
Today, Pacquiao is a heroic figure in the Philippines, known as the "national fist", and has become the greatest sports hero the Philippines has ever seen. When he triumphed in his arms, countless Filipinos cheered and went crazy for him. Even the then-President of the Philippines, Arroyo, was a fan of his boxing. Arroyo commented on him: "His victory represents a victory for the 76 million Filipino people, and the whole country is proud of it."
The American boxing columnist wrote of him: "He is very likely to be the greatest fighter to conquer the West since Genghis Khan."
In all fairness, Pacquiao has a physical disadvantage compared to the opponents he defeated, and his skills are not the most exquisite. But he used his own actions to tell people: complaining about the unfairness of the world without extraordinary talent can only make you live in resentment and despair forever, and everyone has the right to dream, if supported by belief, If you put in a hundred times of hard work, you can still achieve success and create miracles!
