46岁的前世界六个级别冠军曼尼·帕奎奥(菲律宾,62胜39次KO,8负2平)将重返拳台。WBC主席毛里西奥·苏莱曼向媒体透露,帕奎奥将于7月挑战马里奥·巴里奥斯(美国,29胜18次KO,2负1平)所持有的WBC世界次中量级(147磅)冠军头衔。
比赛预计将在7月19日(日本时间20日)或7月26日(日本时间27日)举行,作为Premier Boxing Champions(PBC)主办赛事的主赛,地点预计为美国拉斯维加斯或德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥。赛事将在Amazon Prime Video平台免费播放。
关于帕奎奥复出并挑战巴里奥斯冠军头衔的消息,自去年以来就有所传闻,最近再次被确认即将实现。
46-year-old former six-division world champion Manny Pacquiao (Philippines, 62 wins, 39 KOs, 8 losses, 2 draws) will return to the ring. WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman revealed to the media that Pacquiao will challenge Mario Barrios (USA, 29 wins, 18 KOs, 2 losses, 1 draw) for the WBC World Welterweight (147 lbs) title in July.
The fight is expected to take place on July 19 (Japan time July 20) or July 26 (Japan time July 27) as the main event of a Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) card. The venue is expected to be either Las Vegas or San Antonio, Texas. The event will be available for free streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
Rumors of Pacquiao’s comeback and his challenge for Barrios’ title had been circulating since last year, and it has now been confirmed that the fight will soon become a reality.
2021年8月,在美国拉斯维加斯T-Mobile竞技场,帕奎奥挑战了由约尔登尼斯·乌加斯(古巴)持有的WBA世界次中量级超级冠军头衔,但经过12回合点数判定败北。这场比赛之后,帕奎奥宣布退役。然而,去年9月,消息透露他正在与巴里奥斯进行对战谈判,苏莱曼主席也已批准此战作为世界冠军赛。
帕奎奥表示:“我在40岁时击败了基思·瑟曼,在历史上留下了名字。现在我45岁,也想再创历史。”展现出强烈的斗志。而接受挑战的巴里奥斯也充满期待:“帕奎奥是我从小就敬仰的人,是未来名人堂的传奇。能与他同台竞技是我的荣幸,也是梦想成真,我非常激动。”
去年与帕奎奥的比赛告吹后,巴里奥斯于11月15日(日本时间16日)在美国德克萨斯州阿灵顿的AT&T体育场,接受了同级别排名第8的阿贝尔·拉莫斯(美国,28胜22次KO,6负3平)的挑战。尽管赛前被普遍看好,但双方互有击倒,最终12回合战成平局。此后,巴里奥斯没有再登上拳台。
46岁的帕奎奥即将复出,并直接挑战世界冠军,这场比赛是否真的会实现,今后的动向备受关注。
In August 2021, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Manny Pacquiao challenged Yordenis Ugas (Cuba) for the WBA Super World Welterweight title but was defeated by decision after 12 rounds. After that fight, Pacquiao announced his retirement. However, in September last year, it was revealed that negotiations were underway for a fight with Mario Barrios, and WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman approved the bout as a world title fight.
Pacquiao stated, "At 40, I defeated Keith Thurman and made history. Now, at 45, I want to make history again," showing strong determination. Barrios, accepting the challenge, also expressed excitement: "Pacquiao is someone I’ve admired since childhood. He is a future Hall of Fame legend. Sharing the ring with him is an honor and a dream come true. I’m very excited."
After the planned fight with Pacquiao fell through last year, Barrios faced Abel Ramos (USA, ranked No. 8, 28 wins, 22 KOs, 6 losses, 3 draws) on November 15 (Japan time November 16) at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Despite being the heavy favorite, both fighters scored knockdowns, and the bout ended in a 12-round draw. Barrios has not fought since then.
Now, at 46, Pacquiao is set to return to the ring and immediately challenge for a world title. Whether this fight will truly come to fruition remains to be seen and is drawing considerable attention.
