‘Pacman’ fought Oscar De La Hoya back in 2008, which was the last pro-boxing fight for the latter. In this contest, Pacquiao was an undeniable favorite and the boxing pundits knew he’d turn the tables against ‘Golden Boy’. As expected, Pacquiao smothered De La Hoya.

As a result, the fight ended via an RTD in round 8. Pacquiao established his era that day by beating a legend in ‘Golden Boy’. Since then, there was no turning back for him. ‘Pacman’ moved on to the top with constant wins. And although he capitulated to a few losses, his momentum didn’t take a backseat by any means.

‘Pacman’ will now look forward to giving a taste of his experience to Spence Jr. on August 21.
