Manny Pacquiao Promotions, the company owned by the eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao, will stage its first-ever event in the United States.

The boxing show will take place on November 29 at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California, headlined by a clash between 30-year-old Venezuelan Lorenzo Parra (23-1, 17 KOs) and 29-year-old local fighter Elijah Pierce (21-2, 17 KOs).

The card will also feature the professional debut of Pacquiao’s 24-year-old son, Emmanuel Pacquiao Jr.

“It is an honor for me to bring Manny Pacquiao Promotions to the U.S. Some of my brightest and most unforgettable moments took place in American rings. Now I want to help create those same moments for today’s fighters. We will showcase rising stars and seasoned warriors ready to capture the audience through talent-packed events and a powerful platform,” said Pacquiao.

Pacquiao’s adviser Sean Gibbons, who serves as president of the company, highlighted MPP’s big ambitions.

“MPP strives to become the leading promotional company in the world. We are setting a new standard in boxing promotion – and it all begins now,” Gibbons said.
