Eight-division boxing world champion Manny Pacquiao displayed excellent pool skills in a recent social media video.
The 12-time world champion, who was last in the ring back in December, channelled his inner Efren Reyes to make a number of challenging pots.
Reyes, also from the Philippines, is arguably the equivalent of Pacquiao in the world of pool having won over 100 international titles.

Pacquiao's last appearance in the ring was an exhibition bout with South Korean YouTuber DK Yoo. The 44-year-old prevailed on points at the Korea International Exhibition Centre in Goyang.
Pac-Man is expected to return to the ring in 2023 after signing a deal with Japan's Rizin Fighting Federation last December.
The organisation primarily promotes MMA bouts, though they have previously put on boxing exhibitions with Pacquiao's rival Floyd Mayweather.
It's been almost two years since the southpaw last competed in a professional bout.
Pacquiao took on Yordenis Ugas in August 2021 but suffered his eighth career defeat on a unanimous decision.
