World Boxing News ensures an exclusive update of the potential return to Manny Pacquiao’s boxing legend.
Worldboxingnews.com has announced several times that Pacquiao is queue for the WBC Wytreight Wakwagi title. The current master is Mario Barrios.
Last year, solemn negotiations took place, but they were shortened. Pacquiao wanted to focus on his political career as a Senator of the Philippines.
The eight -year -old Supergivid, which is now 46 years aged, hopes to choose the Senate again next month.
If it succeeds, the Pacquiao position will serve as a stepping stone for the second attempt to become president.
The move occurs after his defeat in the previous race.
The surveys will be opened in 2028 to choose a novel president after appointing Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in 2022
Marcos Jr. He defeated Pacquiao in this voting process. Therefore, there is no guarantee that Pacquiao will be a leader in three years, which would be an early knocking out for his chances.
Vice President and Secretary of Education Sara Duterte-Carpio, daughter of former president Rodrigo Duterte, is reportedly considered the successor of Marcos.
Reports in the Philippines indicate that Duterte-Carpio has a significant advantage in the study.
However, Pacquiao was not included in this process. Duterte-Carpio then gained 36% of the votes. The survey was to find the preferred respondents’ candidate.
When Pacquiao recently lost the offer of Marcos Jr., Duterte-Carpio is an obvious choice. She led in 2022 to become the president’s current partner.
Of course, the second command would be a favorite to succeed.
Pacquiao hopes to return to the Senate before looking into the farewell boxing match. He could chase Barrios or retire to focus on politics for good.

“Manny is currently in a very sizzling race to the Senate of the Philippines. That’s all that it focuses on for pride and country,” added Gibbons.
Bob Santos, Barrios coach, said WBN on Thursday: “Until now, nothing was told and I am a trainer.
“I don’t know where these people get it or why they say it.”
World Boxing News can confirm that the fight Pacquiao vs. Barrios is suspended. This does not mean that this cannot happen at the end of the year, but much more if but also at the end of 2024.
“Pac-Man” has much larger fish to fry, because he strives for one day they occupy the highest position in their country.
The Pacquiao curtain could already fall in the last chapter written during the defeat of Yordenis Ugas in 2021.
