ARQ Sports founder Stephen Philip Caballero Arquisola relishes a special moment of rubbing elbows with Manny Pacquiao on the eve of the Filipino sports hero's comeback fight against World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight king Mario Barrios last Sunday, July 20 (Philippine time) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

A longtime fan, the CEO of ARQ Builders was at the ringside when Pacquiao, just five months shy from his 47th birthday, rolled back the years in a legendary 12-round performance against a heavily favored defending champion who is 16 years his junior.
