On July 19, an icon steps back into the ring—not for a farewell, but for a title. The eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao takes on Mario Barrios, a hungry, hard-hitting contender with youth on his side and a belt around his waist. For Barrios, it’s the opportunity of a lifetime. For Pacquiao, it’s a chance to reflect, to prove, and surprise the world once again.

Their first fight wasn’t supposed to happen. Tim Tszyu took the risk on 11 days’ notice. Sebastian Fundora walked away with his belt—and a new identity as world champion. In Part 2, Gloves Off revisits the unforgettable night that altered both fighters' trajectories as they prepare for their rematch as the co-main July 19.
