MACAU – It’s the fight the whole world wants to see, and even if it doesn’t appear any closer to happening, it isn’t stopping one protagonist from getting paid for it.
Manny Pacquiao poked fun at the situation surrounding the elusive Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight in a new commercial for American shoe store Foot Locker. The commercial begins with two men in a boxing gym talking about the chain’s “Week of Greatness” promo, which begins November 22, the day of Pacquiao’s fight with Chris Algieri in Macau.

An eavesdropping Pacquiao then appears over the ring ropes “Wait, wait. So the thing the people wanted is finally happening?” Pacquiao then gets excited, exclaiming “He’s going to fight me!” over and over while shadowboxing.
