"I'm here in the Philippines, RIZIN.15 will have this man involved in a way. We will be ready to announce as I get back to Japan!" wrote Sakakibara.
However, boxing fans will be left in uncertainty as he did not reveal the capacity Pacquiao will be in after signing with them.

‘Pacman’ emerged victorious by unanimous decision in his last fight against American boxer Adrien Broner early this year.
Mayweather beat Pacquiao in 2015 and briefly came out of retirement to floor kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in the new year’s event that was sponsored by Rizin.
