Finishing touches in Vegas
Manila Bulletin
|July 17 2025
Filipino boxing legend Manny Pacquiao is putting on the finishing touches to his training just days before his ring comeback against World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight champion Mario Barrios.
The Hall of Famer is now in Las Vegas where he resumed his training albeit now lighter than how rigorous it was in the past two months to ensure the full recovery of his 46-year-old body in time for the showdown set on Sunday, July 20 (Manila time) at the MGM Grand.
"The way I trained, the way I worked hard, to make sure I can give a good fight to the fans," said Pacquiao in a hype video released by the Premier Boxing Champions.
