    Jackie Chan said Friday he's still in pain from a recent chest injury sustained while filming his latest movie, "Rob-B-Hood."

    "It's still swollen. It really hurts," the Hong Kong action star told reporters while attending the opening festivities of a Hong Kong rugby tournament.

    Chan said an X-ray showed no broken bones but cartilage injury.

    "Breathing hurts. ... It hurts to draw my fist. It's been hard filming fight scenes these past two days," Chan said.

    He said "Rob-B-Hood," reportedly about gangsters who kidnap a baby, still has a week's filming left.

    The chest injury was inflicted March 23 when a stuntman wearing the wrong shoes kicked Chan.

    Chan has suffered numerous injuries from performing his own stunts.
