Eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao and unified – WBC and IBF
welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr., met for the first time before their much
anticipated bout to officially announce that their fight is on.
The pre-fight press conference was spearheaded by Premier Boxing Champions and
was a pay-per-view.
During the press con, Floyd Mayweather’s name was brought up as Spence admitted
that the unbeaten boxer has been reaching out to him to help him and mentor him.
“He talks to me and things like that. He tries to mentor me, so he’ll definitely reach out. If
says he’ll reach out, he definitely will,” Spence said via BoxingScene.
On the other hand, the 42-year Filipino great compared Spence to Mayweather saying
that his 31-year old opponent is better than Mayweather.
He even threw shades on his former rival.
“He could teach Mayweather how to fight toe-to-toe,” he said.
At the end, both fighters acknowledged the power and strength of each other as they
brace for an all-out war come August 21. Pacquiao will be the challenger as he lost his
belt due after not fighting for a certain period of time while Spence will defend his belt on
the biggest fight of his boxing career.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
