Fight for Charity


After the Mayweather interview saying Manny Pacquiao is begging him for a fight because he needs money to settle his IRS obligation- the Filipino champion bounce back offering Mayweather a free fight meaning their fee and everything that comes with it will go to charity!
Bob Arum finds the offer incredible and offer his full support in case the fight goes through. He said this is something in the boxing world where money counts.
According to Pacquiao’s side, they don’t have to fight for money because the boxer and his camp is now in talk with IRS and that the discussion with them is going well. He might need to settle some money but it is not $18 million like what have been previously reported.
At the moment, Pacquiao is set on fighting another boxer on April and the one they have close in mind is Timothy Bradley whom defeated the PacMan through a split decision in 2012. This rematch if it happens is expected to be a good fight this year and can mean good cash for both boxers and their promoters as well.
If Bradley-Pacquiao won’t materialize, PacMan might then fight another boxing champ through the Russian Ruslan Provodnikov who knocked out Bradley on their last fight.
