Overview

The show is dubbed as GMA Network's very first "self-help" drama.[4] It hosted by world boxing icon Manny Pacquiao and actress Jean Garcia, the show features real people with parallel life stories but have different endings. The show presented every life story via a short film and starred by some of the network's talents. Also in each episode, Pacquiao will share his own personal challenges and how he survived them with a series of difficult choices.

Following the show's main objective, Pacquiao and Garcia serve as coaches, helping and encouraging people to keep the faith, discover and believe in themselves, look straight, stand up and fight life's challenges.[5]

With the battle cry, "Ang pagbabago ay magmumula sa desisyon mo..." (Change begins in your decision...), the hosts will challenge their guests to fight life's battle. Thus, they ask their guests this question: "Palaban ka ba?" (Are you a fighter?).[6]
