The eye injury Manny Pacquiao suffered in a unanimous-decision win over Adrian Broner is a scratched cornea, and the Filipino ring icon is already on the mend, a spokesman for Pacquiao’s camp said on Monday.

The New York Daily News had reported that some in Pacquiao’s camp feared he had suffered a potentially career-threatening detached retina in beating Broner to retain the World Boxing Association “regular” welterweight world title – the lesser of two WBA welterweight belts to that of unbeaten US “super champion” Keith Thurman.
