I’m up for one final dance, but only with you as my partner. You’re still talking rematch with Floyd? Let’s make our fight that never happened. This is the only one that gets me out of retirement— it’s what the fans always wanted.
Pacquiao last fought against WBC welterweight world champion Mario Barrios in July of this year. The fight ended in a majority draw decision. Manny’s record stands at 62 wins (39 by knockout), eight losses, and three draws.
Khan’s last fight was against Kell Brook in February 2022, where Amir suffered a technical knockout loss in the sixth round. His record is 34 wins (21 by knockout) and six losses.
