Top Rank honcho Bob Arum is set to fly to the Philippines next week to iron out the details on Senator Manny Pacquiao’s November 5 comeback fight, according to local reports.
On his Twitter account, Arum tweeted:
Leaving for Manila next week to meet with @MannyPacquiaoTR to discuss plans for his November 5th bout.

Pacquiao’s impending fight on November 5th will serve as the boxer-turned-senator’s comeback after he announced his retirement from the sport earlier this year.
It will be recalled that Pacquiao went against Timothy Bradley for his farewell fight, winning via unanimous decision.
Yet three months after, the boxing senator announced his unretirement, saying that he still misses boxing, and boxing is how he helps his family.
Arum is also expected to announce a shortlist of possible fighters who will go against Pacquiao.
