Too old? Too small? The legend of Manny Pacquiao keeps growing

LOS ANGELES -- It feels odd to watch a man who's earned purses in excess of $200 million wrapping his own hands, but Manny Pacquiao works with a practiced diligence that belies both his fortune and his standing as a presidential hopeful back home in the Philippines. He binds his hands tightly: gauze, then tape, peeled and torn from the roll, gauze, then tape, peeled and torn, until the hand resembles a kind of weapon, a human club. He's 42. He's been doing this as long as he can remember.

Another thing you can't help but notice: Pacquiao's calves.
