Pacquiao 'Hungry' for Comeback After Four-Year Layoff

Manny Pacquiao, a 46-year-old Filipino boxing icon, prepares to face Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight title in Las Vegas on July 19.
Pacquiao returns after a four-year layoff that reignited his passion for boxing despite some longer recovery times due to age.
He reunited with longtime trainer Freddie Roach and showed impressive hand speed during workouts at the Wild Card gym in Hollywood.
Pacquiao shared that taking a lengthy break of several years has benefited his body, and he feels he can still move quickly and maintain his previous level of physical fitness.
This title bout could influence WBC rankings where fighters advance by merit, and Conor Benn may challenge the winner next if eligible.
