Pacquiao aims to become second-oldest world champ vs Barrios

Former boxing champion Bernard Hopkins believes Manny Pacquiao has a chance to become the second-oldest fighter in history when he challenges WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios on July 19.

Hopkins, who holds the record for being the oldest boxer to win a world title at age 49, says despite Pacquiao's advanced age and four-year retirement, he has the speed and experience needed to upset Barrios.

Bernard Hopkins emphasizes that while Pacquiao is unlikely to secure a knockout victory against the younger Barrios, he could potentially win by decision.

At 46 years old, Pacquiao aims to break Bernard Hopkins' record if he wins the fight on July 19 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, making him the second-oldest boxer to claim a world title.

With this comeback effort, Pacquiao seeks to defy age and add another chapter to his legendary boxing career.
