Manny Pacquiao says he will come out of retirement to face world champions

Manny Pacquiao has declared that he would be willing to come out of retirement after only a year to fight for a world title against either Errol Spence Jr or Terrence Crawford.

One of the most sought-after fights in world boxing is an undisputed welterweight title clash between Spence and Crawford, but the pair have been unable to make a deal work. Instead, Crawford is facing David Avanesyan tonight in a bizarre, but well-paying world title fight, while Spence's future is undecided.

And with fans clamouring for the pair to finally face each other, Pacquiao has thrown yet another spanner in the works by offering both men a chance for a massive money comeback fight. He is set to face YouTuber DK Yoo tonight in a charity exhibition, but is keen to make a legitimate return to the ring for a full professional bout.
