Manny Pacquiao to fight Jeff Horn as part of planned four-fight farewell tour, Arum says

Manny Pacquiao's promoter reported Tuesday that the veteran welterweight champion will fight little-known Australian Jeff Horn April 22 as part of a planned four-fight farewell world tour.

Bob Arum said he has agreed to terms with Horn and is entertaining site offers in Australia and the United Arab Emirates and will meet with record seven-division champion Pacquiao, 38, in the Philippines once that part of the deal is complete.

“We plan to have Manny fight four times this year – we have an offer in Russia in July, another offer in Europe for September
and in the U.S. against [unbeaten two-belt junior-welterweight champion] Terence Crawford in November or December,” Arum said.

“That will be Manny’s last fight.”

Arum said he could make the bout a self-produced pay-per-view, take it to Showtime or air it on broadcast TV.

= "We hope Mayweather changes his mind until the year's end if not then we maybe let it go finally..." :pachaha:
btw... The fukk he's gonna fight in Russia? There are not any relevant Russian/EE fighter in welterweight, not yet at least...

It's gonna be Ponomarev won't he... :snoop: He is Russian and TR but he's not that good, I don't think that higher level than Horn...

And Brook in September? Nice to see that Brook has such big plans, like fighting Khan in England and Pac in September but first he really should decide already that whenever the fukk he's gonna defend his belt against his MANDATORY, Spence, cause he has to otherwise he can say goodbye to that belt. :ufdup:

Oh promoters don't put up a lions share of the expenses? :dahell: you know how business works, breh?


By the time the boxer’s big pay-per-view fight happens, the promoter’s share is usually capped at 20% of gross revenue (still less than managers 33.33% of the net) but often lowered to as little as 10%. During the height of former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis’ reign, his promoter, Main Events made in the area of 7.5%
