I think either January 12 or 19.\u201d He also said that the date is \u201calmost final,\u201d adding, \u201cI want it to take place on the 12th so I can get back to work on the 19th [in the Senate].\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As many are anticipating this match to pave the way for the highly-anticipated Pacquiao-Mayweather rematch, Pacman also recently signed with adviser Al Haymon. Haymon is known for working with renowned boxers like Errol Spence, Keith Thurman, Shawn Porter, Adrien Broner, and Floyd Mayweather. The fight will be in collaboration with Pacquiao\u2019s company, MP Promotions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the press conference for ISPS, Pacquiao did not shy away from sharing that he will discuss the details of his fight with Mayweather after their matches in the next few months. He said, \u201cFloyd is going to fight on December 31 and I&#8217;m going to fight January 12. After that, we&#8217;ll know.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for his fight with Broner, which he\u2019ll be training for next week, Pacquiao said that he will try to perform the same way he did during his last victory when he went against Lucas Matthysse in Malaysia a few months ago. In Pacquiao\u2019s words, \u201cIf I can finish [the fight against Broner] earlier than seven rounds, why not?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">American boxer Broner is hoping to finally taste victory after losing to Mikey Garcia in July 2018 and receiving a draw against Jesse Vargas in March 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philippine boxing legend Manny Pacquiao has announced that his next match will be against former world champion Adrien Broner to &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":186307,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-185986","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","mauthors-gianna-llanes","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185986","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=185986"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185986\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/186307"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=185986"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=185986"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=185986"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
