WATCH: Pacquiao receives hug from Mayweather before match vs Broner

Despite being rivals for many years, Floyd Mayweather Jr. visited Manny Pacquiao before the Filipino boxer’s match against Adrien Broner at MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

In a video posted on Pacquiao’s twitter page, Mayweather is seen giving the Filipino boxer a hug.

Reports state that Mayweather also wished Pacquiao good luck in defending his WBA World welterweight belt against Broner.

Mayweather is also seen shaking the hands of Pacquiao’s staff.

The two iconic boxers’ rivalry have dated since 2010 but the most notable one was their match in 2015 with Mayweather taking the win with a unanimous decision.

It is said that if Pacquiao wins over Broner, a possible rematch between the Filipino boxer and the unbeaten Mayweather might happen.
