Manny Pacquiao receives NBA stars Klay Thompson, Karl-Anthony Towns in training camp this week


More NBA stars are visiting boxer Manny Pacquiao, who is training at the Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles.

Pacquiao on Saturday tweeted a photo of him with Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson.

"Nice to have Klay Thompson at Wild Card Gym today," he wrote in the caption of his tweet. "I told Klay I would teach him how to fight if he’ll teach me how to shoot," the eight-division world champion said.

 

 

Thompson's visit to Pacquiao came just days after Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns checked the boxer last Thursday.

 

 

Last weekend, Utah Jazz and NBA Sixth Man of the Year Jordan Clarkson visited as well, along with Apl.De.Ap.

Pacquiao is training in the United States for his fight against Errol Spence, Jr. on August 21.
