LAS VEGAS, NV (April 13, 2026) — Manny Pacquiao Promotions (MPP) today announced the official signing of a landmark partnership with Team Boxing League (TBL), solidifying Manny Pacquiao’s transition from global boxing icon to franchise owner and long-term stakeholder in the future of the sport.

As part of the agreement, Pacquiao and Manny Pacquiao Promotions will join the ownership group of the San Diego TJ’s, marking a major step in the evolution of boxing toward a team-based, league-driven model built on ownership, structure, and global scalability.

The partnership represents a nine-figure commitment centered on long-term platform growth, positioning Pacquiao at the forefront of a new era in boxing — one defined by equity participation, recurring competition, and global expansion across sports, media, and entertainment. “This is not just about fighting anymore,” said Pacquiao. “This is a new chapter in my life. I have accomplished everything I wanted in boxing, and now I want to build something bigger than myself. I truly believe this is the League of Destiny, and I want to help shape the future of boxing and create opportunities for the next generation. I’m proud to build Manny Pacquiao’s San Diego TJ’s and bring something special to fans around the world.”

Team Boxing League introduces a fast-paced, team-based competition format featuring city-based franchises, seasonal play, and a structured path to championship contention. The model is designed to deliver consistent, high-quality events while fostering authentic rivalries, long-term storytelling, and sustained fan engagement — transforming boxing from a series of one-off events into a scalable global sports league.

Pacquiao’s involvement underscores a broader industry shift, aligning fighters, teams, and stakeholders through shared incentives, revenue participation, and long-term value creation. By integrating elements of franchise ownership and league governance, TBL establishes a more stable and economically aligned ecosystem for athletes and investors alike.

“This isn’t just about Manny being an active fighter — this is the first step in Manny building an empire around boxing,” said Jas Mathur, CEO of Manny Pacquiao Promotions. “This is a nine-figure platform play focused on ownership, participation, and long-term upside. We are shifting boxing from transactions to ownership and building a global ecosystem that will support fighters, teams, and partners for years to come.”

Through this partnership, Manny Pacquiao Promotions will play a central role in accelerating TBL’s global expansion strategy. Leveraging Pacquiao’s worldwide recognition and influence, MPP will help drive new market entry, brand partnerships, and cross-industry collaborations spanning sports, media, and digital platforms — further positioning TBL as a next-generation sports property with international reach.

“I’m proud to be an owner of Manny Pacquiao’s San Diego TJ’s,” Pacquiao added. “This is my team, and I’m excited to build something special by bringing great fighters, strong competition, and a winning culture to fans around the world.”

In addition to franchise ownership, the San Diego TJ’s will serve as a cornerstone for talent development, competitive excellence, and brand-building within the league. The team is expected to attract elite fighters while cultivating emerging talent, reinforcing Pacquiao’s long-standing commitment to mentorship and opportunity creation within the sport.

Team Boxing League also introduces a modernized economic framework for fighters, including participation in gate revenue, sponsorship opportunities, and long-term upside tied to league success. This model represents a significant advancement in athlete compensation, offering fighters the ability to build sustainable careers and generational wealth beyond individual bouts.

With a focus on structure, scalability, and next-generation opportunity, Team Boxing League is positioning itself as a transformative force in boxing — redefining how the sport is organized, monetized, and experienced on a global scale.
