Manny Pacquiao faces a lawsuit from the company that manages Conor McGregor

Paradigm Sport reportedly paid 3.3 million dollars to Manny Pacquiao when he signed in 2020. The ‘Pac-Man’ looked like he will be having a potential fight with MMA great, Conor McGregor, just like his boxing counterpart Floyd Mayweather Jr. But the company found Pacquiao breaching his contract since he was found setting up his own fights. Paradigm Sports proceeded to file a lawsuit against the Filipino legend. The trial will commence on 3rd March 2023.

Moreover, Audie Attar has released a statement and addressed the situation. He wrote, “Manny’s days of thumbing his nose at our contractual rights are almost at an end. We have an overwhelming case against him and look forward to justice being served.” 

Attar also mentioned that his company has suffered more than 20 million dollars in damages. He also sent a warning to other promoters. Attar added, “If any promoters, managers, fighters or broadcasting networks are considering entering into an agreement with Manny prior to the trial, they are now on notice that Paradigm will immediately commence an action against them for tortious interference with contract and seek both an injunction and damages.”
