Manny Pacquiao will be 47 by the time the Filipino legend fights again in January.
It’s now known when and where Manny Pacquiao will return to the ring.
The Filipino icon is expected to reveal who he’ll fight soon.
“Hello to all my boxing fans. I’m excited to let you know I will be returning to the ring January 24 in Las Vegas,” Pacquiao announced Tuesday on social media. “It is going to be an exciting and special event. Stay tuned. More news to come on my opponent in the next few days."
Pacquiao will be 47 years old by the time he enters the ring in January. Rolando Romero, the WBA welterweight champion who upset Ryan Garcia by unanimous decision May 2 at Times Square in New York, is believed to be the frontrunner.
Pacquiao (62-8-3, 39 KOs) last fought to a majority draw against WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios on July 19 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The bout took place a month after the eight-division champion was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
Pacquiao ended a four-year retirement to face the 30-year-old Barrios (29-2-2, 18 KOs), a fight many believe Pacquiao deserved to win.
