El Filipino Manny Pacquiao regresará al boxeo el 5 de noviembre cuando se enfrente al campeon Mundial de los Welter Jessie Vargas, despues de haber anunciado su retiro tras superar a Timothy Bradley en abril.
El ex-campeon en 8 divisiones diferentes de 37 años de edad, y todos sus asesores se reuniran el proximo 10 de agosto en Manila para definir la sede del combate que podría ser en Los Angeles o Dubai.
La victoria de Pacquia sobre Bradley por decision unánime, fue su primera en casi un año, despues de su publicitado combate ante Floyd Mayweather que le significo cerca de 150 millones de dolares.
Manny Pacquiao will return to the ring on 5 November against American WBO welterweight champion Jessie Vargas.
Former eight-division world champion Pacquiao, 37, had announced his retirement after beating Timothy Bradley in April.
But his promoter Bob Arum said last month that the Filipino boxer would fight again this year.
«Retirement doesn’t suit Manny right now,» Pacquiao’s manager Michael Koncz told the Los Angeles Times.
Pacquiao and his team will meet on 10 August in Manila to discuss whether the bout against 27-year-old Vargas should be staged in Los Angeles or Dubai.
Pacquiao’s unanimous decision win over Bradley was his first fight in nearly a year, following his much-publicised defeat by Floyd Mayweather.
