Manny Pacquiao will be stepping back into the ring on Saturday night to face off against Jeff Horn and here’s how you can watch.

While the eyes of the boxing world are currently fixated on the Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor super fight coming up in August, or the much-anticipated showdown between Canelo Alavarez and Gennady Golovkin a few weeks later, Saturday night another one of this generation’s greatest fighters will be stepping into the ring. Manny Pacquiao will look to push his winning streak to three when he puts his welterweight title on the line again contender Jeff Horn.

There was a point where we thought Pacquiao could be retired, he is on quite a roll as of late. Following that infamous loss to Floyd Mayweather, Pacquiao has gone 2-0, with wins over Timothy Bradley Jr. and Jessie Vargas. He might not have gotten the win over the greatest boxer of this generation in Mayweather, but the Filipino legend has shown that he does have some gas left in the tank.

And you do have to give him credit, as well, for catering to Horn in this fight. The battle between these two will take place in Australia, which is where the contender Horn hails from. While Pacquiao probably won’t be despised by any means, it goes without saying that Horn will have all of his Australian supporters right there with him in this one. It should also be noted that the crowd is expected to be somewhere in the area of 60,000, further fueling Horn to pull off the upset and become the welterweight champion.

Finally, and for maybe the best part of all this, it’s on free television. Here’s how you can watch Manny Pacquiao take on Jeff Horn Saturday night.
