Mayweather-Pacquiao Rematch Put on Indefinite Hold


The highly anticipated rematch between boxing legends Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao has been postponed indefinitely, according to Pacquiao’s camp in the Philippines.

The announcement came on Friday, ending hopes that fans would soon witness another showdown between two of boxing’s greatest rivals.

The development follows a report by ESPN that a planned Floyd Mayweather exhibition bout in Greece had been called off after an events company linked to the proposed Pacquiao rematch sought an injunction.

While neither camp has disclosed a new date for the contest, the indefinite postponement has cast uncertainty over whether the exhibition fight will take place.

Mayweather and Pacquiao first met in a historic bout in 2015, widely billed as the “Fight of the Century.” Mayweather emerged victorious by unanimous decision in one of the biggest pay-per-view events in boxing history.

The planned rematch had generated excitement among boxing fans eager to see the two legends share the ring once again. However, Friday’s announcement means supporters will have to wait longer, with no timeline yet provided for a possible rescheduling.
