How to watch Pacquiao vs Barrios: TV channel and live stream for fight today
At the age of 46, Pacquiao makes his return to the boxing ring, four years removed from his last professional bout which was a points defeat to Yordenis Ugas at the the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.
'PacMan' has already cemented himself as a legend in this sport. Winning 12 world titles across eight weight divisions throughout his career and despite it being almost exactly six years to the day since his last professional win, he is not worried about his reputation.
"I'm worried for my reputation," Pacquiao said.
"But I'm making sure that I'm not a kind of fighter like other fighters that come back but they are not showing what they did before."
Pacquiao is lacing up his gloves and stepping between the ropes again to challenge Barrios for the WBC strap which the American has held since last May when Terence Crawford was demoted to champion in recess.
So will 'PacMan' roll back the years to dethrone Barrios or will youth prevail for the champion to successfully defend his title to extend his professional boxing record to 30-2?
Below is everything you need to know about where to watch this bout...

FC Zürich terminate Benjamin Mendy's contract after only six months
Swiss Super League side FC Zürich has announced that French left-back Benjamin Mendy (31) has left the club after agreeing to a contract termination. The 31-year-old defender joined FC Zürich last February, also after terminating his contract with the then Ligue 2 side FC Lorient. Mendy signed a two-year contract with Les Merlus two years ago, after being cleared of rape and sexual assault charges. L'Equipe wrote a feature on Mendy's six-month spell in Switzerland, and the least that could be said is that very few people will regret the 2018 World Cup winner's exit. He only played eight games, but started only three. Mendy's time will be remembered by several high-profile on-pitch blunders. 'He did not deliver what was expected of a player of his status', said FC Zürich head coach Ricardo Moniz. 'His level of fitness is not up to what we expect from a player in this Championship.' Mendy was absent from FC Zürich's preseason training camp, officially through injury, but the outlet adds that the former Manchester City left-back has been seen attending a concert in Spain.

Hampshire's Tilak holds up Nottinghamshire
Rothesay County Championship Division One, Utilita Bowl (day three) Nottinghamshire 578-8d: James 203*, Haynes 103, McCann 79, Hutton 71; Abbott 3-117 Hampshire 367-6: Tilak 112, Organ 71*, Middleton 52, Weatherley 52; Abbas 2-66 Hampshire (4 pts) trail Notts (6 pts) by 211 with four wickets remaining Match scorecard Tilak Varma once again proved his enormous talent with his second century in three matches as Hampshire fought hard to keep title-challenging Nottinghamshire at bay at Utilita Bowl. India prodigy Tilak added 112 to take his average in his Hampshire stint to just under 79. He put on 42 with Nick Gubbins, 58 with Ben Brown, and most substantially 126 with Felix Organ to bite into Nottinghamshire's large 578 first-innings score. Organ ended the day unbeaten on 71 with 61 runs still needed to avoid the follow-on – in doing so Hampshire should be safe from defeat on the final day. Fletcha Middleton and Joe Weatherley had hunkered down for 32 overs of hard graft the previous evening. They got their rewards by collecting half-centuries in the morning. Neither showed any flashiness, just survival-style opening batting - putting on 94 together. That was unsurprising for Weatherley who was playing his first red ball match for two years, having lost favour in the Championship and fallen behind Middleton, Toby Albert, Felix Organ, Mark Stoneman, Ali Orr, Ian Holland in recent years. He reached 52 but was bounced out by Mo Abbas – caught on the hook. Middleton also scored 52 and fell on Nelson when he edged Abbas behind. It suddenly felt like an inevitable Abbas day. The Pakistan international had spearheaded the Hampshire attack for four seasons, taking 180 wickets at an average below 20. The Weatherley scalp was his 100th at Utilita Bowl. But despite his mid-morning burst, the Kookaburra ball softened and fast bowling was a game of patience, while the pitch didn't offer regular turn for the spinners. Not that it stopped Liam Patterson-White ripping one to pin Nick Gubbins lbw, before Tom Prest loosely hoicked to mid-on. Ben Brown looked like the man to stick with Tilak, but after a 58-run alliance, the Hampshire captain was leg-before to Lyndon James. Josh Tongue had been released by England for the last two days of the match. He replaced Brett Hutton at the beginning of the day but went wicketless in his 18 overs. Notts' bowlers otherwise toiled for little reward – and will have taken pleasure at the rate never reaching three runs an over. In a low red-ball period for Hampshire, Tilak has been a giant. His arrival, which came thanks to Indian owners GMR Group's influence, has brought a calmness to the middle-order, with plenty of runs to match. He opened with a century against Essex, before 56 and 47 versus Worcestershire and then this century – during those innings he has barely looked like being dislodged. The left-hander's century came in 203 deliveries, with greater patience shown by Organ, who took zero risks with large spells of no scoring. Organ's second fifty of the season came in 138 balls, and even with Tilak strangled down the leg side, Hampshire will feel almost safe.

Middlesex closing in on victory over Northants
Rothesay County Championship Division Two, Northwood (day three) Middlesex 625-8 dec: Holden 151, Williamson 114, Du Plooy 105, Cracknell 73; Zaib 3-70 Northamptonshire 261 & 64-3: Sales 26; Higgins 2-19 Northants (2 pts) trail Middlesex (8 pts) by 300 runs with seven wickets remaining Match scorecard Ryan Higgins moved to the top of Middlesex's wicket-taking chart for the season as his side closed in on victory over Northamptonshire at Merchant Taylors' School. Higgins finished with 4-51, with Noah Cornwell taking 3-48 as the visitors were made to follow on 364 behind – and the medium-pacer then grabbed two quick top-order wickets second time around to further improve his season's tally to 32. Northamptonshire stumbled to 64-3 at stumps and their plight would have been deeper but for rain stoppages and Saif Zaib's first-innings 82, which made him the county's first player to register 1,000 first-class runs in a season since Ben Duckett in 2016. Zaib was almost the fastest to that landmark across the Championship circuit, but the 27-year-old narrowly missed out to Surrey's Dom Sibley, who got there just 15 minutes earlier at Scarborough. Middlesex rotated their seam quartet when the visitors resumed on 126-4, but their spin options were limited after Zafar Gohar, tumbling to deal with George Bartlett's cover drive, landed awkwardly on his shoulder and had to leave the field. Bartlett, having steered Tom Helm neatly through gully for four, repeated the stroke later in the over and picked out the fielder this time, but Zaib continued to progress steadily as he built a partnership with Rob Keogh. Keogh, who had injured a finger while fielding on day one, did well to withstand a couple of Helm deliveries that rose sharply down the slope and helped Zaib to add 55 before Cornwell had him caught down the leg side. The left-hander went on to pass 50 for the ninth time in this season's Championship, ushering Northamptonshire's total beyond 200 before rain arrived to send the players off for an early lunch. Dom Leech provided spirited support, finding the boundary four times in his knock of 22 while Zaib capitalised on successive short balls from Leus du Plooy, pulling the slow left-armer for six and four. Higgins broke the seventh-wicket stand of 64 with two dismissals in as many deliveries, with Leech caught top-edging a hook before Ben Sanderson was lbw without scoring to leave the visitors eight down. A more persistent spell of rain held up play for the next hour and a half – but it took just three balls for Cornwell to wrap up Northamptonshire's first innings, knocking out Zaib's off stump with one that seamed back before cleaning up Yuzvendra Chahal with a yorker. After another weather-affected delay, Higgins reclaimed centre stage, winning what looked like a borderline lbw decision against Ricardo Vasconcelos and castling Aadi Sharma next ball to leave the visitors reeling at 10-2. James Sales began redressing the balance with a series of positive shots in his knock of 26, but he attempted one too many and lost his middle stump to Toby Roland-Jones. Stand-in skipper Lewis McManus remained defiant, punching Helm off the back foot to the fence to reach 21 not out before the light deteriorated sufficiently for the umpires to bring play to a close.
