Pacquiao-Stevenson Cardiff bout remains unconfirmed

Manny Pacquiao and Shakur Stevenson are being discussed for a possible double main event on a planned Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua card in Cardiff, but the proposed bout remains unconfirmed, with no agreements delivered to either fighter and Pacquiao’s financial terms still under negotiation, according to Pacquiao adviser Jas Mathur. The reports of Netflix’s interest in pairing Pacquiao and Stevenson trace to two people connected to the talks. The date being considered is December 11, with December 18 also reported as a possibility. Neither date has been established as final, and the proposed fight has not been signed. The status of the larger Fury-Joshua event is also described differently in the reports. One account said the heavyweight fight had been confirmed for December 11 at Principality Stadium, while another said the Cardiff show had yet to be formally announced. The available information does not resolve that difference. Mathur said agreements had not been sent to Pacquiao or Stevenson and that Pacquiao’s financial terms remained under negotiation.
