Manny Pacquiao swapped the boxing ring for the basketball court as he displayed his lay-up skills to a crowd of fans.

The Filipino superstar has been absent from the ring since his points defeat by Floyd Mayweather in the 'Fight of the Century' back in May.

Pacquiao insisted that a serious shoulder problem had hampered his performance in the Las Vegas clash, but he proved his fitness by taking part in a basketball match.

Manny, like Floyd, enjoys spending time away from training on the court and even 'Money' would have been pleased with his slick lay-up move.
