During his short visit to Cebu for his national shooting competition yesterday, eight-division world champion and Saranggani representative Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao said he will definitely return to the ring soon.
Pacquiao (56-6-2, 38KOs) said his right rotator cuff that got injured during his fight against Floyd Mayweather last May is now completely healed after more than two months of rehabilitation.

Pacquiao said due to the long recovery and rehab period, he is expected to return to action inside the ring sometime in 2016 yet.
Pacquiao is still hopeful to land a rematch against Mayweather, who is scheduled to fight Andre Berto in September. He is also looking for a possible showdown against WBC silver welterweight champion Amir “King” Khan (31-3, 19KOs) or accept “Sugar” Shane Mosley’s desire for a rematch. But Pacquiao said he has no idea who among the three will he fight come 2016.
“Bisan asa anang tulo, gwapo na fight pero di lang ko sure ug wala pako kahibalo kinsa jud ang ihatag nila sa ako-a,” Pacquiao added.
