MANILA, Philippines: Filipino boxing legend Emmanuel "Manny" Pacquiao is one of the options for an exhibition match for British boxer Kell Brook.

In an interview with Lucky Block Sports, Brook, who is officially retired, also has Amir Khan on his sights.

"I wouldn't shy away from it if it made sense for me and boxing fans wanted to see it happen. Maybe we could get Amir Khan or Manny Pacquiao back in the ring," he said. "Manny Pacquiao is a legend, of course I'd love to share the ring with him. It would be an honor."

The 37-year-old professional boxer has 40 wins (28 by knockout) and three losses, with his last match being in 2022 against Khan. He also had a welterweight title by the International Boxing Federation and was the world's best active welterweight by The Ring magazine.
