Manny Pacquiao and President Rodrigo Duterte, "bloggers" and other accounts claiming to report news in the Philippines are claiming that Pacquiao has dropped out of the presidential race to give way to presidential aspirant Bongbong Marcos and Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio. 

 

CLAIM: On November 9, posts started coming out claiming that Pacquiao has backed out of his candidacy for president in the 2022 elections. 

 

One video posted on YouTube channel "BANAT NEWS TV" presents the claim as a "latest update" from the Commission on Elections.
