“I had no doubt Manny would win,” said Jessica Sanchez, who sang both the American and Philippine national anthems at Sunday’s match. 

“Greatness isn’t just about your performance in the ring. It is something that for somebody like Manny still time will tell and history will tell,” Baldwin told Rappler.

He added, “The story is not over. Manny Pacquiao’s success and legendary status, those books are continuing to be written.”
