RIZIN announces Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather rematch #mannypacquiao announced that he has signed a contract with RIZIN for an exhibition boxing match under the Japanese MMA promotion. The bout never materialized in 2023, but the legendary eight-division boxing champion made another appearance in Japan as the year ended. Former PRIDE and current RIZIN boss Nobuyiki Sakakibara invited Pacquiao in the ring and promptly brought up a fight with Floyd Mayweather “next year,” drawing audible gasps from the crowd in Saitama. “I’m ready,” Pacquiao said, before apologizing to the Japanese audience that a planned 2023 exhibition in RIZIN didn’t pan out. “Next year, I hope to see you here in Japan with a big fight against…” Pacquiao said, before looking over to Sakakibara to check if it’s okay to reveal the name. #floydmayweather Sakakibara said. Mayweather has fought twice under the Rizin banner in his exhibition career chapter following his retirement from professional boxing. Mayweather competed against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in 2018 and then against MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura in 2022 in boxing exhibitions. Mayweather, now 46, was last seen in action in June when he fought John Gotti III to a no contest after the fight turned into a brawl involving both teams. Pacquiao retired from professional boxing in September 2021 after losing his WBA title to Yordenis Ugas. He’s done one exhibition bout since, defeating YouTuber DK Yoo in a decision back in December 2022. Pacquiao was recently in the headlines in the MMA world after UFC star Conor McGregor once again challenged him to a boxing match. Pacquiao is currently signed to Rizin. So guys who do you have winning? #pacquiaomayweather2
