Boxing fans around the world might be witnessing one of the biggest comebacks in combat sports history. According to a report shared by Happy Punch via Ring Magazine, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao are in serious talks with Netflix to stage a rematch next year.

Their first meeting in 2015 was one of the most anticipated fights of all time, drawing over 4.6 million pay-per-view buys and generating more than $600 million in revenue. Mayweather won that bout by unanimous decision, maintaining his undefeated record and solidifying his place among boxing’s all-time greats.

Now, nearly a decade later, both legends appear ready to run it back — and this time, streaming giant Netflix is reportedly involved in bringing the spectacle to a global audience. The move would mark Netflix’s most ambitious step yet into live sports, following its growing interest in combat entertainment.

While no official deal has been announced, early reports suggest discussions are progressing well, with both camps enthusiastic about the idea. Pacquiao, who has expressed interest in returning to the ring for select exhibitions, would relish the chance to avenge his loss, while Mayweather continues to attract attention with high-profile events.

If finalized, the rematch could become one of 2026’s biggest sporting events — a nostalgic yet monumental clash between two icons whose rivalry defined a generation of boxing.
