In
what is supposed to be the final fight of his distinguished career,
Manny Pacquiao will fight one last time, but against an opponent with
which he is very familiar: Timothy Bradley. According to Dan Rafael of
ESPN, Pacquiao and Bradley will face off on April 9 at the MGM Grand
Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The bout will air on HBO
pay-per-view.
The April 9 bout will mark the third time Pacquiao and
Bradley have faced one another. The pair first faced off in 2012 when
Pacquiao dropped a controversial split decision to Bradley. They
rematched in 2014, this time Pacquiao taking a clear cut unanimous
decision victory. All three fights will have taken place at the MGM
Grand Garden Arena.
Pacquiao, 37, last fought this past
May against the sport's top pound-for-pound star, Floyd Mayweather, in
the most lucrative fight in boxing history. Pacquiao lost that contest
via unanimous decision. His boxing record stands at 57-6-2.
Bradley,
32, most recently fought Brandon Rios in November, where he won via
ninth-round TKO. His record is 33-1-1 with 1 no contest.
This bout will be for the WBO welterweight belt.
