After years of waiting and weeks in training camp, eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao says he knows what Floyd Mayweather will bring to the table come fight night on May 2 (May 3 PHL time).

"I feel very excited for the fight. I have a lot of sparring partners that are similar to Floyd’s fighting style, we have done well. We know what to expect," said Pacquiao in his media workout.

"I have watched tape on Floyd to make sure that our strategy and technique in training camp is correct."

Despite criticisms that the long awaited showdown is six years too late, the Filipino ring icon says it turned out for the better in terms of selling the fight.

"More people are interested and informed about this fight now than they would’ve been five years ago," Pacquiao said.

"Style wise, I am the same fighter I was five years ago. My determination, inspiration and killer instinct is the exact same as it was five or six years ago. I can say that beating Floyd would be the biggest victory of my career." -- JST, GMA News
