Manny Pacquiao has a new opponent for his highly anticipated return to the ring.
Originally, ‘PacMan’ was scheduled to square off with reigning RIZIN and KNOCK OUT champion Chihiro Suzuki inside the Saitama Super Arena on July 28. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case after Suzuki reportedly broke his hand during an exhibition boxing match with Takanori Gomi on June 23 in Tokyo.
“In a recent match, Chihiro Suzuki’s right hand, right second middle finger fractured the middle fourth bone,” Rizin CEO Nobuyuki Sakakibara announced in Japanese during a press conference.
