Manny Pacquiao lost his last professional contest against Yordenis Ugas in 2021.

The boxing legend suffered a shock defeat to Ugas with all three judges scoring the fight for the Cuban.

Justin Fortune, who was part of many Pacquiao fight camps, has claimed that it was all down to a nice relaxing massage.

Speaking about the fight to Lucky Block he said: ā€œFreddie blamed me for Mannyā€™s last fight against Ugas.ā€

ā€œI went off to watch Ugas get his hands wrapped, when I left there was a masseuse there and I said do not touch my fighter, Mannyā€™s never had a massage before a fight in 22 years, donā€™t touch him.ā€

ā€œWhy would you touch a fighter before a fight? I come back and heā€™s massaging Pacquiao. I said, ā€˜what are you doing, heā€™d be too relaxed and youā€™re releasing toxins into the body that should not be there and itā€™s out of routine, heā€™s never done it in 20 years.ā€™

ā€œManny lost and Freddie of course wonā€™t take the blame for anything, so he blamed me instead for what happened. No-one gets a massage before a fight, and it affected his performance. When I walked in and saw it I screamed some expletives that would embarrass my mum.ā€
