Manny Pacquiao's Liqour Ad- Henessy Commercial Video

Watch Manny Pacquiao's Henessy Commercial titled "What's Your Rabbit". The ad came out just weeks after Pacquiao confessed on national TV that he is a changed man. He said he’s done with gambling, women and alcohol.

The ad quotes Pacquiao, “Fighting the fights that really matters: That’s my wild rabbit.” Pacquiao said it’s not about Hennessy. It’s more of an inspiring ad on how to follow your dreams and be successful.

Chasing a wild rabbit is about pursuing your dreams, never tiring no matter what the difficulties are, never giving up even when the doors have been seemingly shut and life has almost knocked you down completely.

Mayweather doesn't want to fight Pacquiao for Health Reason?

Is Mayweather really afraid to fight Pacquiao? Mayweather doesn't want to fight Pacquiao for Health Reason according to the report from Boxing Insider. Floyd Mayweather admitted himself: He’s afraid of getting pounded on like a punching bag by Manny Pacquiao.

According to Boxing Insider, Mayweather admitted this to Bob Costas in an NBC show interview about why he doesn’t want to fight Pacquiao. “I am in the game to win, not just inside the ring, but outside the ring,” stated Mayweather. “My health is more important than anything.”

Costas said Floyd has to fight Pacquiao, to see who is the best, to give the fans what they want and to pump up the sport with a much-needed big, exciting, Super Bowl event: “I come first. Self preservation. I gotta worry about my family. If the fight don’t happen, so be it.”

There you go: “Self preservation.” So the reasons Mayweather gave us for two years of ducking and dodging Pacquiao – drug tests, fake retirements, Manny has to leave Arum and be his own boss, no 50-50 split, he doesn’t need Manny, it’s all Bob Arum’s fault, etc. – were indeed mere smokescreens, bluffs and lies. Cleverly but dishonestly used to cover up the real secret truth – Mayweather fears for his health because he knows Pacquiao would simply beat the hell out of him.
