(REUTERS) An injured Manny Pacquiao arrived back in the Philippines to a hero's welcome on Wednesday, the boxer still adamant he did enough to win his welterweight megabout against Floyd Mayweather Jr at the start of the month. The 36-year-old southpaw was wearing a sling on his right arm following shoulder surgery on a torn rotator cuff suffered prior to his unanimous points decision loss to the American in the heavily hyped fight in Las Vegas on May 2. Pacquiao, a world champion a eight different weight classes and regarded as one of the sport's great entertainers, was sued in a US court last week by two people who felt defrauded by his failure to disclose the pre-bout injury.
