According to Yahoo News- Philippines, Manny Pacquiao awarded $2 000 to his friends who passed the weight reduction challenge. He dared them(his friends) that if they will lose 10 lbs in two weeks, each of them will get $2 000 and those who lose 15 lbs will get an additional $1000.
And out of 29 who took his challenge, only five weren't able to make it.
Alex Ariza, Pacqiuao's conditioning coach, said that it's much harder to do it(weight reduction) himself than asking or instructing someone to do it.
Pacquiao shelled a total of $74 000 in "lose-weight-win-cash" challenge, an amount of money enough to buy a big house in the Philippines or a brand new Mercerdes Benz in US!
Pacquiao put up the challenge so that other people will understand how difficult it is to be a boxer. And next time, he said, the challenge will involve ladies.
