Boxing fans, get ready for the ultimate blast from the past. More than a decade after their record-shattering “Fight of the Century,” boxing legends Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao have officially agreed to a professional rematch. Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 19 – these 2 icons are throwing down once again. And what’s even more exciting? It’s all going at the incredible Sphere.
Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao at Sphere in Vegas
The bout will take place at the groundbreaking Sphere, making it the very first professional boxing event to be held at the iconic venue. Attending in person means you’re in for an insane visual and sensory treat. The Sphere is equipped with a massive 160,000-square-foot wraparound 16K LED screen, 3D spatial audio, and haptic seating that vibrates with the action. Plus of course…Mayweather vs. Pacquiao II is guaranteed to be an unforgettable spectacle.
But if you can’t make it to Sin City (or let’s be honest, afford the tickets) don’t worry: the fight will be streamed live globally on Netflix. The blockbuster event comes straight to your living room!
A complicated history
Both fighters are returning to the ring with plenty of unfinished business. Mayweather, now 48, brings his flawless 50-0 professional record out of retirement. On the other side of the ring, the 47-year-old Pacquiao (62-8-3) is eager to avenge his 2015 unanimous decision loss. He recently said that he wants Floyd to “live with the one loss on his professional record.” Will it happen? Don’t miss this iconic fight!
