‘He Is a Better Fighter than Mayweather’: Manny Pacquiao Reacts to Floyd Mayweather Offering Help to Errol Spence Jr.

Manny Pacquiao will enter the ring against Errol Spence Jr. on August 21 in a multi-title welterweight showdown. The bout will see him test himself against one of the best pound-for-pound fighters of the era. However, Pacquiao isn’t new to those challenges. The only ever-eight-division champion, ‘Pac-Man’, has competed against some of the best boxers, including Floyd Mayweather.

That said, Mayweather offered to help Errol Spence Jr. in his preparations for the fight. As ‘Money’ had already beaten Pacquiao in 2015, he might unveil a few blueprints for success for ‘The Truth’. However, Pacquiao doesn’t look bothered ahead of his WBC, IBF, and Ring fight.

In the first official press conference, Manny Pacquiao reacted to Mayweather’s offer to Spence Jr. and said, “Errol Spence doesn’t need to have advice from Mayweather because I believe Errol is better than Mayweather. He is a better fighter than Mayweather. I think he will teach Mayweather how to fight top-to-toe.”

44-year-old Floyd Mayweather is no longer an active professional boxer. However, he continues to spin some wheels around. A few weeks back, he returned to action against Logan Paul in an exhibition and amassed over $100 million in one night, reportedly. But ‘TBE’ couldn’t score a win that night and had to depart with a draw.

Can Manny Pacquiao beat Errol Spence Jr.?

The 42-year-old, Manny Pacquiao, will put a quell on his long hiatus from action to take on an undefeated champion in Spence Jr. Hence, it will not be an easy task for the Filipino legend. However, Pacquiao’s experience and skills will hand him several advantages over ‘The Truth’. Furthermore, a win will see him become a world champion once more.

Hence, it can work as fuel to Manny Pacquiao’s urge to win. Meanwhile, Errol Spence Jr. is a southpaw puncher which would favor him in the bout.

Hence, fans can expect an exciting encounter.
