So
right after an extremely transient retirement, Manny Pacquiao is again during
the boxing business and will be fighting much rated Jessie Vargas on 05
November 2016.There is not significantly
of an excitement all over Pacquiao
combat time as HBO has really substantially ditched Pacquiao in favor of Andre
Ward vs. Kovalev which is able to
be going down two months
after Pacquiao-Vargas. Bob Arum,
Pacqiao’s promoter has declared
that Best Rank will
likely be negotiating a PPV agreement
straight with cable companies. How this shift pans out is stay being witnessed for
the US viewers but intercontinental
audience will have the quality coverage by way of their community
channels. In the United Kingdom
SkySports is probably going to
broadcast this combat but it
is nonetheless to generally be verified.

Manny Pacquiao vs. Jessie Vargas PPV & TV Channels Details (Revealed)
Pacquiao vs. Vargas TV Protection Details: The struggle is verified for Saturday, 05 November 2016 and as the things stand Bob Arum is forcing his way to make it a PPV night which in all honesty looks unlikely. HBO has ditched Pacquiao and networks like CBS, ABC and NBC has made offers but Arum is holding out to broadcast the combat live by way of Top Rank PPV. Risky move considering Pacquiao has failed to live up to PPV expectations post May weather battle.
US viewers can just order the combat via their local cable providers just like they would have done if it was a HBO or Showtime event if it does verified as PPV.SkySports is probably going to broadcast the fight in the UK while Solar Sports is probably going to produce live feed in Philippines, as far as intercontinental viewers are concerned.
Another Philippine star NONITO Donaire is set to feature on the undercard against stillto be introduced opponent. Magdaleno is widely tipped to face Donaire on November 5th. Whatever way Leading Rank chooses to distribute the PPV, it might be a hard sell. If they combat do anything near 300,000 buys it will be a success and we can safely assume Pacquiao will call for a rematch against May weather if he wins against Vargas with a knockout or a solid performance.
Manny Pacquiao will combat WBO welterweight champion Jessie Vargas in his November comeback fight, according to his manager.
Pacquiao announced his retirement from the sport to concentrate on his political career soon after beating Timothy Bradley on April 9 and the 37-year-old was elected to the Philippine Senate in May.
But he declared last month that he intended to return to the ring, with November 5 slated for that veteran of 66 fights and winner of world or Ring magazine titles in a record eight weight divisions.
"Retirement doesn't suit Manny right now," Michael Koncz told the Los Angeles Times. "Boxing is in his blood. When he trains, it's like a pressure-release valve. You can see a dramatic difference in his mood... he's happy. It's amazing what training and fighting does for him."
The only question is where the combat will take location, with Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum looking at holding the struggle in Las Vegas or Dubai.
He tweeted last week that he was talking to a group from the Middle East that wants to host Pacquiao (58-6-2), although American Vargas (27-1-) said he was in talks with Pacquiao's camp to hold a fight at the Thomas & Mack Center arena in Vegas.
Koncz told the LA Times that he would travel with Arum to the Philippines next week to meet with Pacquiao and pick a site.
"That's the essence of the meeting," Koncz said. "Not choosing an opponent. That's already done."
Pacquiao's unanimous decision win over Bradley was his first struggle in nearly a year soon after his tame loss to Floyd May weather. Vargas, 27, beat Sadam Ali in March to claim the WBO welterweight crown.
He has won 10 of his bouts via a knockout or stoppage, with his only defeat coming through a point’s loss to Bradley in June 2015.
Top Rank will probably be distributing the November 5 fight between WBO welterweight champion Jessie Manny and Vargas Pacquiao on pay-per-view without the help of their longtime partner HBO. The network passed on the option of televising the Vargas-Pacquiao combat. Leading Rank promoter Bob Arum is going to having his company put it on PPV. It is unclear how many buys it’ll generate without the help of HBO.
There’s talk of the battle not being shown a week later on non-PPV. HBO always shows their PPV fights a week later on regular HBO. It looks like that won’t happen with Top rated Rank. That’s a potentially bad thing for those fighters, especially the non-stars like Terence Crawford.
If Arum is going to have his fighters on PPV, then they won’t be witnessed by many boxing fans if the fights aren’t interesting enough to be purchased by them. They won’t get a chance to see the fights the following week like in the past with HBO. If they’re only witnessed by a handful of fans, in other words, it’ll be hard to turn these non-stars into stars.
“This is my first fight since I was elected as senator and it’s an honor for me to challenge the champion while in the 147 weight division, which is Vargas,” said Pacquiao by using Fightnews.com. “I respect him because he’s the champion; he’s the belt-holder of 147. It is a big challenge for me to get that belt again to prove I can still manage serving the people and being a boxer.”
Pacquiao won’t be making the big money for the Vargas combat that he used to go. The only way Pacquiao could get the big money that he previously received is if a ton of boxing fans purchased the Vargas combat. This is not a fight that the fans are asking for.
It is just not a match that the fans are eager to see, even though arum made the fight. Pacquiao needs guys like Adrien Broner, Saul Canelo Alvarez, Floyd May weather Jr. or Gennady Golovkin for him to have a chance of a big payday. I don’t think any of those fights will ever happen at this point. Pacquiao already fought May weather, and it looks like they’re not going to combat again.
Even if Pacquiao beats Vargas, he’s not probable going to do substantially other than get put in with Crawford. I think there will be tremendous pressure put on Pacquiao to combat Crawford in his next battle, whether he wins or loses to Vargas. I think the 84-year-old Arum really wants Pacquiao to struggle Crawford.
It would make Crawford a bigger name if he could take Pacquiao’s scalp and add it to his collection of Prime Rank scalps. However, Pacquiao is too old and past his prime for Crawford to become a star from beating him. I don’t think Arum realizes this or not, but Crawford doesn’t have a built in fan base like Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
This means that for him to become a big PP star, he needs to combat and beat top rated names, and he needs to have an exciting preventing style. Crawford is missing in both of those areas in my opinion. Arum can match Pacquiao against Crawford once, but it won’t make him a star. Arum will need to keep finding other guys for Crawford, and that’s where the problem lies. I don’t think Arum is going to get able to find non-Top Rank guys for him to become matched against.
“I know that I’m the underdog in this struggle? But what’s changed? Let’s be honest,” said Vargas to fightnews.com. “The media has had me as the underdog so many times, but I came out victorious in all of them, and on one occasion I struggled but I found a way. I struggle to the end…I am a two division world champion for a reason.”
Vargas, 27, isn’t too happy that the boxing fans see him as the sacrificial lamb for Pacquiao to slaughter. The fans still remember the news of how bad Vargas looked in his combat against Tim Bradley last year. They can’t forget that. The fans still remember how bad Vargas looked in his fights against Khabib Allakhverdiev, Anton Novikov and Antonio DeMarco. The fans have seen Vargas’ past fights, and he just has not looked good. He’s a champion, but more of the paper champion in the eyes of a lot of boxing fans.
