WATCH: Age is just a number as Pacquiao weighs in lighter

Cape Town - Filipino star Manny Pacquiao tipped the scales half a pound lighter in Los Vegas on Friday for his WBA welterweight title bout against Adrien Broner.

A trim-looking Pacquiao, who faces Broner at Las Vegas's MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, weighed in at exactly 146 pounds.

"Forty is just a number, it doesn't matter that I'm 40 years old - I feel young," Pacquiao said.

Pacquiao (60-4-2, 39 knockouts) last fought in July last year
