Pacquiao Finalizes Nine-Figure TBL Deal

Manny Pacquiao finalized a nine-figure deal to establish and co-manage the San Diego TJ’s as part of a Team Boxing League (TBL).

The move transitions Pacquiao from the ring to a high-level executive role, where he will help steer the TBL’s ambitious global strategy. Beyond just owning a team, Pacquiao’s commitment grants him an equity share in the TBL’s parent organization. This makes him a primary stakeholder and a key voice in the league’s international growth.

The franchise is a tribute to the deep-rooted, binational boxing heritage shared between Southern California and Tijuana, Mexico. Moving away from the traditional "lone wolf" nature of the sport, the TBL operates a team-centric scoring model. Squads of fighters across multiple weight categories battle for points that contribute to an overall league ranking.

I truly believe this is the League of Destiny, and I want to help shape the future of boxing and create opportunities for the next generation.

"I’m proud to build Manny Pacquiao’s San Diego TJ’s and bring something special to fans around the world. I’m proud to be an owner of Manny Pacquiao’s San Diego TJ’s.
