Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2: Rematch Confirmed on Netflix – Date & Details

Las Vegas is set to host a boxing spectacle on September 19, 2026, as Floyd Mayweather Jr. And Manny Pacquiao are confirmed to meet again in a professional rematch at the Sphere. The bout, streaming live on Netflix, marks a return to the ring for both legends and a first for the cutting-edge venue, which will host its inaugural professional boxing event.

The rivalry, initially ignited in 2015, captivated the boxing world and generated unprecedented revenue. Their first encounter, dubbed “The Fight of the Century,” drew a record-breaking 53.1 million pounds in ticket sales, though Mayweather secured a unanimous decision victory, maintaining his undefeated record. Now, over a decade later, both fighters are seeking to settle unfinished business.

“I already fought and beat Manny once,” Mayweather stated through a Netflix press release. “This time will be the same result.” The sentiment underscores Mayweather’s confidence as he approaches his 49th birthday, celebrated today, February 24, 2026.

Pacquiao, 47, echoed a determined spirit, stating, “I want Floyd to live with a single loss on his professional record and forever remember who gave it to him.” Pacquiao’s return to the ring last July, after a four-year hiatus focused on his political career as a Philippine senator, saw him battle WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios to a majority draw, signaling his continued competitive drive.

The announcement follows Mayweather’s recent confirmation of a multifight partnership with CSI Sports/Fight Sports and his upcoming exhibition bout against Mike Tyson. Pacquiao is also scheduled for an exhibition fight against Ruslan Provodnikov on April 18, 2026, at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, serving as a warm-up for the highly anticipated rematch.

While the specifics regarding weight class and the number of rounds remain undisclosed, the event is already generating significant buzz. Netflix, recognizing the global appeal of the matchup, is positioning the fight as a landmark sporting event for its subscribers worldwide.

“Bringing this rematch to Netflix is a massive ‘full circle’ moment,” said Gabe Spitzer, Vice President of Sports at Netflix. “We’re thrilled to combine their storied rivalry with the immersive technology of Sphere to deliver a landmark sporting event to our members worldwide.”

The fight is being organized and produced by EverWonder Studio, Hidden Empire, and Limitless X Holdings, with promotion handled by Manny Pacquiao Promotions and Mayweather Promotions in partnership with CSI Sports/Fight Sports. The collaboration highlights the collective effort to deliver a spectacle worthy of the two boxing icons.

Pacquiao, the only boxer in history to win world titles in eight different weight divisions, views this rematch as an opportunity to rewrite history. The Filipino legend and Mayweather first clashed in May 2015, a fight that, despite its record-breaking financial success, left some fans wanting more.

Mayweather’s professional record stands at an unblemished 50-0, with 27 knockouts. Pacquiao’s record is 62-8-3, with 39 knockouts. The contrast in styles and the history between the two fighters promise a compelling contest, even as both approach the twilight of their careers.

The Sphere in Las Vegas, with its immersive technology, is expected to enhance the viewing experience for fans both in attendance and those watching globally on Netflix. The venue’s state-of-the-art capabilities will aim to deliver a truly unique and memorable event.

As Mayweather and Pacquiao prepare for their rematch, the boxing world eagerly anticipates a night of drama, skill, and a potential shift in the legacy of two of the sport’s greatest competitors. The September 19th showdown promises to be more than just a fight; it’s a continuation of a story that has captivated audiences for over a decade.
