Manny Pacquiao, at age 46, makes his return to boxing seeking to win the WBC welterweight title against Mario Barrios on July 19. This comeback not only marks Pacquiao's attempt to transcend age but also to make history by becoming the first boxer inducted into the Hall of Fame to win a world title and the oldest fighter to secure the welterweight title. Despite challenges over the past few years, including a presidential campaign and two exhibition matches, he is determined to reaffirm his legacy in the ring after a recent underwhelming political stint.
"I like making history," Pacquiao said with a large smile following Saturday's news conference. "It's nice." This reflects his drive to achieve significant milestones in his career.
