Joe Cordina unlikely to face Manny Pacquiao on December Fury-Joshua card
Joe Cordina's hopes of fighting Manny Pacquiao on the December undercard in Cardiff appear to be over after terms were not reciprocated.
Former IBF super-featherweight champion Joe Cordina had aimed to face Manny Pacquiao on home soil at the Principality Stadium during the Tyson Fury versus Anthony Joshua event on December 11. While Cordina agreed to terms, the Filipino legend did not reciprocate, leaving the potential matchup unlikely. Promoter Eddie Hearn has criticized the current undercard for lacking a Welsh fighter and stated he has lined up a big fight for Cordina in January instead. Although the December 11 card remains unfinalized, the current undercard features only heavyweight clashes supporting the main event.
