“I See Potential in Jordan Clarkson”: $220 Million Worth Manny Pacquiao, Who Gave Floyd Mayweather a Run For His Money, Applauds Jazz Star’s Boxing Stance

Jordan Clarkson recently had a couple of rough outings, wherein he got a $15000 fine in the game against the Portland Trail Blazers in one game and an ejection against the Warriors in the next.

It’s the latter that has caught the attention of the legendary Boxer, Manny Pacquiao, who shares the same nationality as the Utah Jazz guard.

Manny Pacquiao sees potential in Jordan Clarkson after seeing his Boxing stance against the Dubs

Following a hefty fine for throwing his headband into the stands against the Blazers last week, the Utah star wanted all the heat on Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors just seconds before his team pulled off a tremendous 124-123, last-possession win against the Dubs.

As hilarious as his pose came off, he was ready for a fight, wasn’t he? When BR came out with their post on the matter, they got a comment from the man who once made Floyd Mayweather, the self-proclaimed best boxer of all time, run across the boxing ring.

Be it in a fun way or because he belongs to the same country (Philippines), getting the $220 million worth world famous boxer praising you must be joyful for the 2021 Sixth Man of the Year who is visibly frustrated with the officiating these days.

NBA Twitter did not let Clarkson get away with his Boxing stance either

Averaging close to 20 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists per game, JC along with Lauri Markkanen has surprised fans and experts who kept Utah among the teams to tank for Victor Wembanyama this season.

But that could not save him from the trolling that he brought upon himself with the pose which was supposed to be threatening.

But like Pacquiao, some do believe in JC, or so they say.
