Manny chases ‘Fistory’
We’re hoping it’s not going to lead to crushing disappointment, but there’s Manny Pacquiao on Twitter (yet again) calling out Floyd Mayweather.
I can easily beat @FloydMayweather, I believe that.

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo was quick to react to the news of Irina Shayk and Cristiano Ronaldo’s split. Cricketer Kyle Abbott enjoyed AB de Villiers’ record ton while Nico Rosberg went for a cruise.
I heard that Irina Shayk is single.. Should I DM her?? Or you guys think is too early?? Hahahahha
