There are many stumbling blocks on Manny Pacquiao's way before he can qualify for a spot in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Boxing analyst Atty. Ed Tolentino said the universality rule might not work for the boxing legend as it is reserved for countries that have a tough time qualifying for an Olympic spot.
"Controversial po ang universality places. Ibinibigay po kasi ito sa mga boksingero coming from countries na hindi makapasok sa Olympics. Ito 'yung mga less privileged athlete, ito ang spot na ibinibigay," explained Tolentino.Pacquiao earlier spoke of his desire to compete in Paris and the Philippine Olympic Committee has assisted to relay his request to the International Olympic Committee through the universality rule.
