Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather Fight Set for September 2014 (Report)

Where there’s smoke there’s fire, and YouTube channel 78 Sports TV created quite the billowing haze when they announced that a deal was in place to see the two biggest boxing sensations in the world finally go head to head in September of this year.

According to International Business Times, the source who provided the information also had access to information regarding Mayweather’s match-ups with Canelo Alvarez and Robert Guerrero before they were announced to the public.

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao set for September 2014?

Pacquiao, the first eight-division world champ, has an all-time record of 55-5-2. The World Boxing Council recently named the Pac-Man the premier contender for Floyd Mayweather’s WBC Welterweight belt. Mayweather, widely regarded as the best pound-for-pound pugilist on the planet, is an undefeated veteran of 45 professional fights.

Pacquiao was mired in a slump after a controversial defeat at the hands of Timothy Bradley, and a shocking loss against Juan Manuel Marquez. He managed to bounce back against Brandon Rios in November of 2013 in Macau, in a fight that was widely regarded as a slump-buster for the Filipino boxing legend

If the rumors prove true, this fight could very well break the live gate record set by Mayweather’s fight against Saul Canelo Alavarez in 2013.

Tons of cash will no doubt be on the line when the man they call “Money” faces “Manila Ice” in the biggest boxing match up of the modern era.

Keep your eyes and ears peeled for an official announcement for the mega-event, at which point lines and odds will surely be released for the much anticipated bout.
