Manny Pacquiao has announced that he is in advanced negotiations for a rematch with Floyd Mayweather, following their 2015 match, dubbed 'The Fight of the Century', in which Mayweather won by unanimous decision. Pacquiao, who retired in 2021, returned to the ring to fight Mario Barrios, but stated that he could not accept the defeat from 2015 due to a shoulder injury.
Now, at 46 years old, he claims that he no longer has issues with his shoulder and that he is in direct discussions with Mayweather's team to establish the details of the rematch, which could take place in Las Vegas. Although Mayweather is preparing for an exhibition match with Mike Tyson, Pacquiao is confident that boxing fans will be excited about a possible rematch.
