The legendary Filipino Manny Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) should go out for a real fight, and not arrange a demonstrative six-round “fight” in December in Seoul against South Korean YouTuber and martial artist DK Yoo. So says American promoter Aljo Jaro.
“He shouldn’t be fighting this Korean at all, for that matter. If he really wants to come back and fight, then he has to fight a real boxer or any popular fighter with a name like McGregor, for example, which can entertain millions of fans around the world, Jaro believes. – And such fights as with that YouTuber kill boxing. Apart from some Koreans, no one really knows who Yoo is, especially in the US. Weight and height difference is also not good. The Korean is taller and, I think, heavier than Pak.”
Meanwhile, a real fight or some kind of top fair fight, according to Jaro, will allow the 43-year-old Pacquiao to earn a lot more money.

“If he wants to continue doing charity work, he should choose a well-known attractive opponent who can bring millions in income from the fight,” Jaro explained.
