Former world champion Joe Cordina agrees to fight Manny Pacquiao as part of the undercard for the Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua bout, according to promoter Eddie Hearn. The fight is expected to be added to the December 11 all-British heavyweight event at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
All outlets attribute the update to Hearn, framing Cordina’s agreement as a key step toward finalising the undercard. BBC Sport, Yahoo Sports and Guyana Chronicle all describe the bout as featuring Cordina facing Pacquiao, with Pacquiao’s age and the event’s date and venue included in the Guyana Chronicle summary. Together, the reports indicate negotiations are at an advanced stage but do not provide further details such as contract length, weight division specifics, or confirmed bout date beyond the event itself.
The coverage largely aligns, with differences mainly in what contextual details each outlet chooses to include.
