“Bigyan n’yo lang po ako ng pagkakataon, sa 6 na taon, at ipapakita ko po sa inyo kung ano ‘yung tao na ina-underestimate nila at minamaliit nila,” he said.

According to the Senator, he was also underestimated when he was just starting in boxing. He stressed that he also wants to be an eight (8) different weight division champion in public service. Based on the report, he is confident that his fellow Bisaya in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao will support him in the upcoming election.

The boxer-turned-Senator also reportedly asked for prayers from everyone saying that he is running for president not for his personal enrichment but to help the poor Filipinos. When he announced his presidential bid prior to the filing of candidacy, it was followed by his announcement of retirement from boxing.
