Manny Pacquiao Knew He Would Lose To Floyd Mayweather Thanks To Divine Intervention

Manny Pacquiao knew he would lose to Floyd Mayweather because "the Lord" revealed to him he would in advance.

Manny Pacquiao knew he wasn't going to beat Floyd Mayweather at May's mega-match because "the Lord" informed him well in advance.

Appearing on ANC's "Headstart" in his native Philippines, the Pacman revealed that ahead of his bout with Mayweather he dreamt he would not be victorious.

Speaking predominately in Tagalog, Pacquiao said "one month before the fight" he dreamt he "lost the decision" and that he was thankful God "had revealed" the outcome beforehand.

"I smiled because I already saw what would happen even before," Pacquiao said.

Maybe he was smiling because he knew how much money he was going to make. Losing a 12-round unanimous decision, Pacquiao reportedly cleared over $100 million from the fight.

The 37-year-old said he still planned to fight again, telling the program another bout was in the works for "next year." But Pacquiao, who will run for a seat in the Philippines senate, wouldn't say who it would come against or whether it would be his last fight.
