Manny Pacquiao has failed in his bid to become president of the Phillipines after he was beaten by Ferdinand Marcos Jr.

Pacquiao announced his intention to run for the presidency after retiring from the ring following defeat in his final boxing fight to Yordenis Ugas. The Filipino star was seen casting his vote in the election near his home in Sarangani but polling figures earlier in the day suggested Marcos Jr had done enough to win.

Official results have confirmed Pacquiao fell short, finishing behind runaway winner Marcos Jr and Leni Robredo. Pacquiao claimed earlier in the week that the initial polling figures had been incorrect having seen him positioned third. Several political factions wanted Pacquiao to quit earlier in the race and throw his support behind current vice-president Robredo.

Prior to the result Pacquiao thanked his supporters and called for political change irrespective of the result. "I am a boxer. I am used to whatever contest there is," he said. "I am letting the people decide. But remember, regret is always at the end. We have always regretted our decisions, so let’s not repeat our mistakes
