Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao makes his long-awaited return to the ring this weekend, facing off against former WBA welterweight champion Mario Barrios in a bout that promises fireworks.
When and Where is the Fight?
The Pacquiao vs Barrios showdown takes place on Saturday night at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas. While the main event is expected to begin around 11 PM UK time (3 PM PT/6 PM ET), fans should tune in earlier to catch the full undercard action.

Full Fight Card
The stacked undercard features several intriguing matchups:
- Brandon Figueroa vs Jessie Magdaleno (WBC interim featherweight title)
- Fabian Maidana vs Lucas Santamaria (welterweight)
- Rohan Polanco vs Luis Hernandez (super lightweight)
What's at Stake?
At 45 years young, Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) looks to prove he still belongs among boxing's elite against the younger, hungry Barrios (28-2, 18 KOs). The Filipino icon hasn't fought since his 2021 loss to Yordenis Ugas, while Barrios enters fresh off three consecutive victories.
This welterweight clash could potentially set up the winner for bigger paydays against the division's top names later this year.
