Mayweather defeated Pacquiao by unanimous decision in their first bout in 2015.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao will step in the ring for a rematch later this year, over a decade after their first bout took place.
The announcement comes days after Mayweather confirmed he is coming out of retirement from boxing, and signaled his intent to continue competing professionally beyond his upcoming exhibition match with Mike Tyson.
Since unretiring in July 2025, Pacquiao has fought then-WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios to a majority draw, and will face Ruslan Provodnikov in an exhibition bout on April 18.
“Floyd and I gave the world what remains the biggest fight in boxing history," Pacquiao said in a statement, obtained by ESPN. “The fans have waited long enough -- they deserve this rematch, and it will be even bigger now that it will be streamed live globally on Netflix. I want Floyd to live with the one loss on his professional record and always remember who gave it to him.”

Their rematch is scheduled for Saturday, April 18 at The Sphere in Las Vegas, Nevada.
