Ang Olympic bronze medalist nga si Eumir Marcial nagdako nga gi-idolo si boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, ug wa niya damha nga maabot sa iyang career nga apil na siya sa fight card ni eight-division world champion.
Makigaway si Marcial ni Alexis Gaytan isip usa sa undercard fights sa Pacquiao vs. Barrios fight nga ipahigayon karong Hulyo 20 (PH time).
Sa usa ka post sa social media, gipaambit ni two-time Olympian ug Olympic medalist Marcial nga si Pacquiao gyud ang iyang inspirasyon nga nagdasig niya pagsulod sa kalibutan sa boksing.
“My journey began with my father, your number one fan, who passed his admiration for you down to me. Growing up, training, and aspiring to be like you wasn’t just a dream; it became my purpose,” sulti ni Marcial.
“That purpose led me to where I stand today: a two-time Olympian and Olympic medalist. Through every victory and every setback, you’ve been my guiding light, silently shaping my path and showing me what true greatness looks like,” dugang niya.
Gihulagway sab sa Zamboangueño boxer nga si Pacquiao mao ang hulmahan sa usa ka tinuod nga kampeon.
“As you return to the ring, not just for your family, not just for our country, but for all of us, you embody the very spirit of a champion. Indeed, the epitome of a world champion,” padayag ni Marcial.
“I just want you to know: we’re with you. Always. Ready to stand by your side, as we fight under your card and, God willing, celebrate the glory of victory together,” tipik pa sa pasalig ni Marcial.
Gawas kang Marcial, moaway pud si Mark Magsayo sa undercard. / RSC
