Floyd Mayweather, 48, is officially coming out of retirement to face boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, 47, at the Sphere in Las Vegas on September 19. This highly anticipated rematch will be streamed live on Netflix, marking the streaming giant’s foray into professional boxing.
“I already fought and beat Manny once. This time will be the same result,” Mayweather said confidently.
Pacquiao, who’s eager to avenge his 2015 loss, responded, “I want Floyd to live with the one loss on his professional record and always remember who gave it to him.”
Their first encounter in 2015, dubbed the “Fight of the Century,” generated a record 4.6 million pay-per-view buys and $72 million live gate. This rematch promises to be just as thrilling, with both fighters looking to rewrite history.
