Pacquiao wants Spence vs. Crawford winner

Quote
Former eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao says he’s open to the idea of taking on the winner of the Errol Spence Jr vs. Terence Crawford fight. Pacquiao would need to come out of retirement to fight the winner of that clash. If Pacquiao is serious about wanting to fight the winner, he needs to return to the ring and get a fight under his belt against a top-tier opponent. The boxing public would be more interested in seeing Pacquiao fight the Spence-Crawford winner if he shows that he still possesses his skills by defeating a top 20 contender first.

The 43-year-old Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) was asked on Thursday if he’d like to face the still-unsigned Spence-Crawford winner, and he asked in the affirmative.

What do you think guys? Can Pacquiao still have that fierce to compete with either Errol Spence Jr. or Terence Crawford?

Personally, for me, even if he is fit and capable to fight, it's better to just enjoy his retirement while making money thru exhibition fights.

No need to achieve new things to add to his already established successful legacy. That's enough.

Did Pacquiao actually said that? Or is it just a writer who made up some stories to get an attention? Because I really don't think Manny Pacquiao is that dumb to consider fighting an undisputed boxer in what was toutred as the most challenging division. Crawford is already hard to defeat and the same goes for Spence. Let's not forget that Ugas defeated Pacquiao while Spence haven't had the hard time.
