LOOK: The early days of Manny Pacquiao

Before Manny Pacquiao became the boxing icon that he is today, he used to be the 16-year-old boy who did odd jobs in Malabon City after leaving his hometown General Santos City in Mindanao.

During the early years of his career, the only eight-division world champion spent his teenage years working as a baker and a construction worker to be able to earn some money and support his family.

Now that he is about to fight Floyd Mayweather in the biggest bout of his life, let us relive his humble beginnings in these old photographs.
