Pacquiao hasn’t fought professionally since August 21, 2021. His last fight came when he was nearing 43 years old, and it was after a two-year layoff. He ended up losing to Yordenis Ugas, losing his WBA belt in the process.

He has fought twice since the suspension was lifted, beating Rodolfo Orozco and Peter Dobson in September of 2023 and February of 2024, respectively.
