Pacquiao vs Mayweather: The Contract Dispute Awaiting Clarity
Manny Pacquiao announced he signed a contract with Floyd Mayweather for a fight, not an exhibition. Despite Mayweather's recent claims, both parties have confirmed the bout, set in Las Vegas, is genuine. Their 2015 fight generated millions, stirring anticipation for this potential rematch.
Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao has confirmed that he signed a contract for an official fight with American icon Floyd Mayweather, contradicting previous assertions of an exhibition match. Pacquiao, now 47, has made it clear that he would not engage in anything other than a legitimate contest.
This comes in response to Mayweather, who told Vegas Sports Today that the much-anticipated clash, set to stream on Netflix this September, would be an exhibition rather than a professional bout. This revelation left fans in limbo, unsure of what to expect when the two legends meet.
Pacquiao’s promoter, Jas Mathur, reinforced the claim by stressing that all contracts signed indicated a real fight is in the making. The 2015 meeting of the two boxing giants drew record figures, making any upcoming fight highly anticipated in the world of sports.
