World Boxing News learned that Errol Spence Jr. He is advertised to PIP Manny Pacquiao for the WBC welterweight title.
According to coach Bob Santos, Mario Barrios, WBC champion, Mario Barrios, could defend the belt against Spence.
Pacquiao vs Barrios
According to WBN, Pacquiao hopes to explode in Barrios, conducting talks last year. However, Pacquiao’s political career in the Philippines, the Senate dispersed him again and collected a contract.
Barrios has not fought from the November draw with Abel Ramos because of several factors, including the potential fight of Pacquiao. Since then, Santos outlined that Spence was in the mixture when they were waiting for the result of the reunification of Saturday night between the ruler of IBF Jaron Ennis and the owner of the title WBA Eimantas Stanionis.
Asked if the Pacquiao fight was still on the table, Santos said worldboxingnews.com: “You know that I don’t really know what is going on. We’ll see how it will go.
“I mean everything is on the table, but they are [promoters Premier Boxing Champions] Speaking of Spence. They talk about you, maybe we’ll see how this fight, Stanionis and Ennis are playing.
“It could be a union [for three belts]. We’ll see what happens [with Spence]he added.
Santos has always been on board Barrios from Pacquiao, despite the fact that the Filipino legend is 46 years and outside the ring for the next four years. This summer, Pacquiao will be introduced to the Hall of Fame as a choice of first ball, and Barrio directed for the WBC crown would be an icing on the cake.
“I think it’s great every time your name can be exchanged with Manna Pacquiao. It’s always good,” said Santos earlier WBN.
“I think it would be a huge fight for fans. Pacquiao always stays in great shape, just like Barrios. Styles are fighting and I think it would be a huge fight.
“The only thing in Pacquiao is that he always stays in great shape. You never see him overweight; that’s why guys like him can last long, long time.”
Pacquiao’s most critical career events
Pacquiao became the oldest boxer who won the welterweight championship in history, defeating Keith Thurman [won via split decision] In Las Vegas in July 2019, the return against Barrios would provide the king of eight weight classes a chance to improve this feat by six years.
The achievement would be similar to the legendary victory of George Foreman in hefty weight at the age of 45, but without years of victory.
“Pac-Man” deserves all the possibilities he receives on his unique ring career, which may have one more last chapter.
His lucrative fight with Floyd Mayweather [lost via unanimous decision] It remains most often buyers at the sight. In addition, his victory PPV over Ricky Hatton in Super Lightweight is still one of the most memorable moments at MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Timothy Bradley’s “victory” in the first fight is a significant blot in copying, but Pacquiao proved that he was better than ESPN analyst in two consecutive duels.
But the less you talk about the loss of the WBO welterweight title for Jeff Horna in the Australian robbery, the better.
If Pacquiao lands in Barrio, he fights in front of Spence, which he almost fought in 2021, you can divide the opinion about the warrior WBN 2000-2009 decades.
His last struggle of the exhibition from Rukya Anpo did not impress. Earlier Pacquiao lost to Yordenis Ugas by the WBA belt in his last fight for the title of Pro.
