The legendary Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao recently announced that he would come out of retirement and put on the gloves again, and he will do so in style by fighting for the World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight title against American Mario Barrios.

Pacquiao, 46, is just over 15 years older than his opponent, with Barrios being 29 years old, and the question arises whether the Filipino idol is fit to get back into a ring again, having last fought in 2021, resulting in a loss to Cuban Yordenis Ugas.

Dinamita Marquez criticizes the WBC over Manny Pacquiao

If anyone knows about facing ‘Pac-Man’ it is his greatest rival, Juan Manuel Marquez, with ‘Dinamita’ not seeing the Filipino’s return to the ring in a good light, especially because of Pacquiao’s long period of inactivity and the years he carries on his back.

Manny Pacquiao reportedly set for ring return with July title bout

Marquez told Probox TV that he is intrigued by Pacquiao’s return, although he criticised the WBC for giving the Filipino the opportunity to fight for the title despite his inactivity and not giving the opportunity to the main contenders for the belt.

After four years of inactivity, we’ll see how he comes back. After that 2012 knockout he went on to fight and did quite well, beating great fighters. The one to blame is the organization, why do they put Pacquiao to fight for the world title after four years of inactivity? Where are the ranked fighters from 1 to 10, from 1 to 5? The organization is making a mistake, but letting a historic fighter fight is not an issue

Will we see a Marquez vs Pacquiao 5?

Boxing fans will remember a saga of extraordinary fights between Mexican champion Juan Manuel “Dinamita” Marquez and Manny Pacquiao, who met four times, with the Filipino winning two fights, drawing one and the Mexican winning another fight.

The first episode was at featherweight, then the rematch at super featherweight and the last two at welterweight. With Pacquiao’s return to the ring, will the Mexican be encouraged to arrange the “Marquez vs Pacquiao 5” fight?

Patriots 2025 NFL schedule: Observations, notable quirks, predictions for all 17 regular-season games

Getty Images The New England Patriots may be on the doorstep of finally crawling out of the basement in the AFC. After consecutive 4-13 seasons and failing to reach the playoffs in four of the last five years, things are looking up in Foxborough. This offseason, the Patriots brought in Mike Vrabel as head coach and went on a spending spree in free agency, which fetched the likes of defensive tackle Milton Williams, wide receiver Stefon Diggs and cornerback Carlton Davis, among others. New England also solidified key areas of need in the NFL Draft, most notably selecting LSU left tackle Will Campbell No. 4 overall. All that paired alongside promising second-year quarterback Drake Maye at the helm, and the Patriots are suddenly a sleeper pick to reach the postseason in the AFC. Now, we know the exact path Vrabel's team will go […]
