Errol Spence Jr. wants Manny Pacquiao to be his next fight
The American fighter called Pacquiao to the ring and asked him in front of more than 40 thousand spectators to be his next rival.
Errol Spence Jr gave a dominant display to Mikey Garcia, and there's no doubt that he can go for the big checks and renowned fighters. He even has some in mind mainly Manny Pacquiao who was at the AT&T Stadium to witness the fight between Spence and Garcia.
"Manny has broken records here at AT&T Stadium before, he's a legend in sports, and it would be a great honor for me to be his next fight. He is a true fighter and has shown it against everyone in his own way. I think he'll accept the challenge," said Spence and even mention that the fight will be one of a lot of money suggesting he can give Pacquiao his retirement check.
The Filipino answer immediately to the champion's challenge, saying: "yes, why not? We will give the fans a good fight. I'm very happy to be here in Dallas and hope to return here soon."
