"I am proud to partner with Paradigm Sports Management and am excited for the opportunities that Audie Attar and PSM have to offer,” stated Pacquiao in the release.
“One thing I want everyone to remember is to always think positively. Never think negatively; that is the beginning of your downfall. Everything is possible." he added.
The two have been linked to a possible matchup in the boxing ring, the likelihood of which has increased with Pacquiao's signing.
MP Promotions head Sean Gibbons earlier said earlier that Pacquiao has yet to finalize any plans for a return to the boxing ring.
