Manny Pacquiao took to Twitter to declare that he'll be taking on IBF and WBC welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr. on Saturday, Aug. 21 in Las Vegas!
When the battle happens, it will be the first run through the 42-year-old Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KOs) has battled since putting down Thurman in the first round and wound up winning by means of split decision to guarantee the WBA (super) welterweight title. Due to COVID, The WBA has stripped Pacquiao of the belt due to "inactivity"
In 2019 Spence came back from a car accident that forced him to recover for nearly 15 months. Spence (27-0, 21 KOs) returned in December and showed no ill effects from the wreck to dominate Danny Garcia from start to finish to win a lopsided decision to remain the unified welterweight champion.
