Manny Pacquiao can't be written off ahead of his fight with Errol Spence Jr, according to former junior welterweight Chris Algieri.
Pacquiao is coming back out of semi-retirement for the Spence bout and it is one of the few times he has been considered the underdog.
However the 42-year-old Filipino senator could be a surprise winner on August 21, claimed Algieri.
“Absolutely. Not only is it one of those things where you can never count out Manny but I never count out Manny,” he said on the DAZN Boxing Show.
“He’s one of those guys, he has the one-punch power, he has that speed and he's awkward. He sets traps, his off-beat rhythm . His ability to change throughout a fight. The best make adjustments.
“The guys who can adjust are the guys who separate from themselves. Manny does that as good as anyone even at that advanced age.
“He’s got a punch, he’s got power, if he can walk Spence into these shots we could get an upset.”
