Manny Pacquiao is a man who wears many hats. He's an accomplished boxer, for starters. He's also a politician, a basketball player, and a singer. And in the hours leading up to his much-publicized fight versus serial woman beater and part-time boxer Floyd Mayweather, he's been revealed himself as a Gooner, as well:

Now don't let me tell you which fighter you should root for on Saturday, or to even begin to care about the event if you haven't up until now.  But what I am telling you is that Manny Pacquiao probably despises Jose Mourinho as much as you do. He most definitely believes White Hart Lane is a shit hole.  There's even a good chance that he and his entourage will sing "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" in his dressing room before he walks out to the ring.

Basically, what I'm telling you is that Manny Pacquiao - regardless of all his own warts - is a Gooner and is proud enough of that fact to be photographed wearing an Arsenal zip up.

Go on, Manny. Take down Floyd.
