The eight-division world champion, Manny Pacquiao, still possesses the cracking pace that can stop any man inside the boxing ring. Even at 42 ‘Pac-Man’ doesn’t look to have slowed down. Although he might have passed his prime, Pacquiao is still looking like he can present trouble to several fighters from the modern era.

However, his upcoming rival, Errol Spence Jr., is one opponent who can negate any potential threat thwart him. But, ‘The Truth’s accolades and undefeated run aren’t enough to make fans write Manny Pacquiao off. As we walk closer to the fight date, Pacquiao continues to flex his current condition on social media.

Pacquiao’s recent social media post showed him training at the gym.
