‘Pac Man’ didn’t compete for the whole of 2020. His last fight was against Keith Thurman in July 2019, wherein Pacquiao claimed a gratifying win. Right from the first bell of this contest, the 42-year-old walked his adversary down, and as a result, he ended up on the winning vertical.
With that, the Filippino Senator went out of action for a while, but now, he’s finally in to face a worthy fighter in Errol Spence Jr. Earlier, he was supposed to fight the WBO welterweight champ, Terence Crawford, but due to some uncertainties, this encounter failed to materialize.
