Polish President Karol Nawrocki trains in Manila with boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, who now leads the Philippines’ National Anti-Poverty Commission.
Polish President Karol Nawrocki joins Manny Pacquiao for a special boxing session in Manila, stepping into the ring with the eight-division world champion.
Nawrocki stretches and works out alongside the former champion during the meeting.
A lifelong combat sports enthusiast, Nawrocki is visiting the Philippines and took the opportunity to meet one of the country's best-known athletes.
Pacquiao was appointed head of the National Anti-Poverty Commission last month, moving into a new role in public service. He has compared tackling poverty to boxing, saying both require discipline, resilience and determination.
The training provided a lighter moment during the Polish president's visit.
