Pacquiao comeback is for the Filipinos
Manila Bulletin
|June 27, 2025
Manny Pacquiao is simply doing the unthinkable.
-
At 46 years old, "Pacman" is coming out of retirement to fight the younger and taller American boxer Mario Barrios for the World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight belt on July 19 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
The former Philippine senator last fought in 2021 against Cuban Yordenis Ugas, losing by unanimous decision which ultimately made him decide to hang up his gloves after a glamorous career that spanned more than two decades since his first professional bout in 1995.
But the sport he truly loves caught the Filipino legend off-guard once again, and without any resistance he grabbed the opportunity to face the defending champion who is 16 years his junior and a clear four to six inches bigger than the pride of General Santos.
