MANILA – More than a week after becoming a world champion anew, Senator Manny Pacquiao bared on Tuesday plans for another boxing match on December 2.

Pacquiao, who appeared on the noontime show “It’s Showtime, told ABS-CBN News that his camp is eyeing a second fight this year. However, they have not yet decided who will be his next opponent.

“Wala pa [kaming napipiling kalaban]. [Pero, we are] planning ang fight sa December 2,” Pacquiao said.

His visit to ABS-CBN comes more than a week after his seventh-round technical knockout (TKO) victory against then defending WBA welterweight champion Lucas Matthysse of Argentina in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia last July 15.

He has since admitted undergoing an angiogram after having trouble in breathing a week before his bout with Matthysse.

In an earlier report, Pacquiao said a possible heart complication was spotted during a regular check-up before the boxing match. He then flew to Manila to have his heart checked at the Cardinal Santos Medical Center.

Pacquiao said he did not return to the hospital after his victory, explaining his heart now is in good condition.

“Wala namang problema sa family dahil ‘yung doktor naman pag-check up sa akin, tiningnan ‘yung puso ko wala naman nakitang problema. Healthy naman,” Pacquiao stressed.

“Maganda rin na tiningnan ‘yung puso ko, [para malaman] kung sino talaga ang nasa puso ko at si Jinkee talaga.”

The fight also marked the first event of his MP Promotions, which according to the Fighting Senator did a tremendous job to put up the match.

He also thanked President Rodrigo Duterte and Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who both watched his fight at the Axiata Arena.

“Happy ako [dahil] successful ‘yung promotion. Maraming napasaya at nanood pa ang dalawang pangulo ng dalawang bansa,” Pacquiao said.
