Australian boxer Liam Paro, the newly crowned International Boxing Federation (IBF) welterweight champion, is setting his sights on a fight with Filipino legend Manny Pacquiao. Paro's promoter, George Rose, confirmed the target, stating that Pacquiao is the one fight they want for Paro.
Paro's Promoter Confirms Interest
According to a report from Boxingscene.com, Rose said: “Manny is the one fight we want to make for Liam.” Paro holds a record of 28 wins, 1 loss, and 16 knockouts, while Pacquiao, an eight-division world champion, has a record of 62 wins, 8 losses, 3 draws, and 39 knockouts.
Pacquiao's Recent Activity
Pacquiao has been relatively inactive in recent years, last fighting in 2021. The potential matchup with Paro could reignite interest in the Filipino icon's return to the ring.
