According to promoter Bob Arum, Manny Pacquiao is slated to fight in one final match before calling it a career and retiring to focus on politics in the Philippines, his home country. The final bout is to take place on April 9, against a yet to be determined opponent.
Arum said Pacquiao made his plans clear at a dinner the two shared last week, saying:
Pacquiao currently serves as a congressman for the country's Sarangani province but will be running for one of the nation's 24 senate seats, half of which will be voted on in May. This, again according to Arum, will serve as a tune-up for even larger ambitions:
