Negotiations With Floyd Mayweather And Another Legend In The Works For April!"},"content":{"rendered":"

Retirement in boxing rarely means what it’s supposed to mean for legendary fighters chasing glory. Manny Pacquiao officially retired from professional boxing years ago after an illustrious Hall of Fame career. The Filipino icon captured world titles in eight different weight classes throughout his remarkable journey. But retirement couldn’t keep ‘PacMan’ away from the ring for long at all recently.<\/p>

Pacquiao made a stunning return to professional boxing in 2025 against Mario Barrios and looked surprisingly sharp. Now discussions of even bigger fights have emerged that could bring Pacquiao back for more action. The boxing<\/a> legend confirmed this week that talks are happening for multiple potential matchups simultaneously. One fight would settle unfinished business while another represents an intriguing stylistic challenge against different competition entirely.<\/p>

Manny Pacquiao Talks Floyd Mayweather Rematch <\/h2>

Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather in 2015 became one of the most talked-about fights in boxing history. Mayweather won by unanimous decision in a fight that disappointed many viewers expecting more action. Pacquiao later revealed he fought with a significant shoulder injury that limited his performance considerably. Pacquiao confirmed this week while talking to Seconds Out<\/strong> that current negotiations involve a real professional fight, not an exhibition.<\/p>

“Right now it is in negotiations. My people and his people are directly coordinating. Now I don’t have a shoulder problem, so it’s a good fight. I’m sure the world of boxing will be excited if the rematch will push through.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
