How is this new to people?? Pros can go back amateur for along time now, ok i didnt know they could have up to 20 fights, it depends on how good you are/were when you were/are pro, as in if a boxers goes pro, losses his first 5 fights,he will be allowed go back amateur boxing after a meeting explaining why he would like to go back to amateur boxing,as in if a pro whos 20-0 will more than likely have some trouble trying to convince the AIBA

Yeah, he was targeting Rio, so the upcoming Olympics.

i don't see any tiny reason pac will join olympics. it's not for professionals.
-there's no money in it
-championship belts are bigger than olympic medals
-wasting time for training
-will be fighting kids
-philippine election is next year where pac is running for president
-phil basketball kia needs him
-he will see USADA again

whoever made this story is lying.

Pac is not after the money. Pac wants to be the first pinoy to capture a gold medal in Olympics.

Isn't Philippines like the ninth most populous nation on Earth and zero gold medals?
