MANILA, Philippines - Manny Pacquiao will be granted an honorary doctorate degree by Southwestern University in Cebu, Philboxing.com reported on Thursday.
"Your very recent achievement shows the art and science of boxing in action. Your display of prowess in the sport is worth an academic dissertation," SWU chief of staff Flaviano Manalo said in a letter addressed to Pacquiao.
According to Manalo, SWU has a special center for sports development which means the school can grant such a degree "to exemplary sportsmen like Pacquiao".
When the conferment ceremonies will take place has yet to be determined by school officials. - GMANews.TV
