Mayweather vs Pacquiao Rematch Set for Las Vegas Showdown
Floyd Mayweather is officially coming out of retirement and he’s not doing it quietly. The undefeated boxing icon, now 48, will face Manny Pacquiao, 47, in a professional rematch this September at the Sphere in Las Vegas, live on Netflix. This is more than a fight—it’s the return of a rivalry that defined a decade of boxing.
Their first encounter in 2015 was billed as the “Fight of the Century,” though many fans felt it didn’t fully live up to the hype. Mayweather won on points, extending his perfect record, while Pacquiao retired to focus on his political career. Since then, both men have stepped back into the ring only briefly, with Mayweather engaging in exhibitions against Conor McGregor and others and Pacquiao returning last year to fight Mario Barrios, ending in a draw.
