Rebilas-Imagn Images Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao are set for a rematch of one of the biggest boxing fights of the century on Sept. 19 in Las Vegas, streaming on Netflix, the service announced Monday.
Mayweather and Pacquiao initially fought in 2015 after years of buildup, achieving over 4.5 million pay-per-view buys, with Mayweather winning by unanimous decision.
Now 48 and 47 years old, respectively, the pair will battle in the first-ever professional boxing match at The Sphere.
Pacquiao retired from boxing in September 2021 as the only eight-division world champion in boxing history before coming out of retirement last year for a WBC welterweight title fight against Mario Barrios, which ended in a majority draw.
Mayweather, who has a perfect 50-0 career record and won 15 world titles, hasn't competed competitively since his highly controversial boxing match against UFC legend Conor McGregor in August of 2017. He's set for an exhibition fight against another boxing legend, Mike Tyson, this spring and announced last week that he would be coming out of retirement after that bout.
