Pacquiao Confirms: Talks With Loma and Floyd Are Ongoing

Former eight-division world champion, 46-year-old Manny Pacquiao, has confirmed ongoing negotiations with 37-year-old Ukrainian three-division former world champion Vasyl Lomachenko, as well as 48-year-old former five-weight world champion Floyd Mayweather.

“Everything is in progress right now. It depends on whether we can come to an understanding. My team and his team are coordinating directly…

I feel that at the beginning we were almost there. We agreed on many things, but there are still a few conditions that we continue to discuss.

This is a very interesting fight. I don’t have any shoulder issues now. It would be a good matchup, and I’m sure the boxing world would be thrilled if the rematch happens.

There are also ongoing talks about an exhibition bout with Lomachenko — not a real fight, more of a personal demonstration. But the situation with Mayweather — those are negotiations for a real fight,” said Pacquiao.

Pacquiao and Mayweather previously met in 2015, where Manny lost by unanimous decision.
