Pacman-Mayweather II in the works?
MANILA, Philippines — Manny Pacquiao’s camp yesterday confirmed that the highly anticipated match, an exhibition fight, with American Floyd Mayweather Jr., is being planned for Dec. 31 in Tokyo.
If it happens, then expect a lot of fireworks.
“Wala pa,” one of Pacquiao’s lawyers told The STAR yesterday.
But he admitted that talks are on regarding the showdown between the two retired boxing icons in Japan, which was first mentioned around this same time last year.
“Kaunting hitches na lang,” he said.
Pacquiao, who will turn 45 on Dec. 17, and Mayweather, who will turn 47 on Feb. 24, fought in 2015 and broke all existing records in boxing revenues. Mayweather won on points.
Last month, Pacquiao hinted on something big.
“Abangan niyo na lang ‘yung announcement. Soon, soon,” he told reporters.
