Floyd Mayweather Jr. Vs. Manny Pacquiao Rematch Will Happen This Year, According To Mayweather.



Floyd Mayweather Jr says a rematch with Manny Pacquiao will take place this year.

The five-division champion revealed the plan in an Instagram post on Saturday, saying: “I’m coming back to fight Manny Pacquiao this year another 9 figure pay day on the way.”

Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) earned a unanimous-decision win over Pacquiao when they first met in May 2015. He earned a guaranteed purse of $100m for the fight but was reported to have brought home at least twice that amount.

The long-awaited welterweight title unification bout generated more than 4.4m pay-per-view buys, nearly doubling the previous record of 2.48m for the 2007 fight between Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya.

It also yielded more than $400m in domestic pay-per-view revenue to almost triple the $150m generated by Mayweather’s win over Canelo Alvarez in 2013.

The American has fought twice since then: a lopsided points win over Andre Berto in September 2015 and a 10th-round knockout of Conor McGregor in August 2017.

Pacquiao (60-7-2), an eight-division champion who is serving as a senator his native Philippines, is coming off a sixth-round stoppage of Lucas Matthysse in July.
