‘He’s Going to Be in Trouble’ – Errol Spence Jr. Warns Manny Pacquiao

The Errol Spence Jr. and Manny Pacquiao fight has certainly surprised the boxing world. The legendary Pacquiao will come back from a two-year hiatus to face one of the best P4P boxers in the sport right now. And ahead of their bout, ‘The Truth’ has sent a stern warning to ‘Pac Man.’

Spence and Pacquiao announced they would face each other on August 21. While all the attention has been on the 42-year-old, the unified champion also has to answer questions of his own. However, the American has now said he is undeterred by Pacquiao and his comments.

The 27-0 boxer spoke to Barbershop Conversations on YouTube and addressed his last bout. He said, “I say I was probably about 80… 75-80% against Danny Garcia. Yeah, I wasn’t right against Danny.” 

Thus, this comment showed that his performance against Garcia was nowhere near his best.

‘The Truth’ then said, “I’m going to expect the same Manny Pacquiao that we get every time, you know. He’ll come to fight, and I’m definitely coming to fight. And I’ll be a lot stronger and physically better than my previous fight.” He then added, “Because, if he’s looking at last fight thinking there’s signs of weakness than he’s going to be in trouble.”

Why is Errol Spence Jr. reminding Manny Pacquiao of his skills?

Spence Jr.’s statements showed that he is confident in his ability. These words came because Pacquiao said he has more power and speed than the American, and thus, took the fight with no worry.

However, Spence Jr.’s last bout against Danny Garcia was his first professional bout after a dangerous car crash. Despite that, the undefeated champion went out and put on a clinical performance to get the unanimous decision victory.

Moreover, Spence Jr. has knocked out Chris Algieri, who ‘Pac Man’ failed to knock out. Thus, it is no surprise that the American thinks he has more power. Hence, ‘The Truth’ has seemingly warned Pacquiao not to look at his last fight, but to look at his entire resume.

What do you make of these comments from Errol Spence Jr.? Do you think he was not at a hundred percent in his bout against Danny Garcia?
