Manny Pacquiao Launches Manny Pacquiao Promotions in the U.S. to Foster New Boxing Talent

Legendary boxer Manny Pacquiao has officially launched his promotional company in the United States, aiming to guide a new generation of fighters to success on American soil.

Originally founded in 2006 as MP Promotions, the company has been rebranded as Manny Pacquiao Promotions (MPP). According to a press release, MPP is “an ambitious new venture aimed at reshaping the future of the sport he helped define.”

Pacquiao, who will turn 47 this December, is celebrated for his extraordinary career capturing world titles in eight different weight classes. Just two months ago, the 5ft 5½ins southpaw made a remarkable return from a four-year retirement to challenge Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight title. Although the fight ended in a draw, it reaffirmed that “Pac-Man” still has plenty to offer.

Now, through MPP, Pacquiao is embracing a new role that allows him to give back to boxing.

“It is an honour to bring Manny Pacquiao Promotions to the U.S.,” Pacquiao said. “Some of my most unforgettable moments happened inside American rings. Now, I want to help create those same moments for today’s fighters.

“Through talent-stacked events and an elite platform, we’ll showcase the rising stars and seasoned warriors ready to capture the world’s attention.”

Sean Gibbons, Pacquiao’s long-time advisor, will serve as President of MPP. Joining him as Chief Financial Officer and Vice President is Hollywood executive and entrepreneur Tony Cohen.

“We’ve only just launched in August 2025, and we already have two world title fights and an amazing bout scheduled for November,” Cohen revealed.

Further event announcements are expected in the coming weeks.
