Pacquiao verdict in question?
The Philippine Star|July 13, 2024
Paradigm Sports Management lawyers opposing the California superior court judgment that dismissed the breach of contract case against former eight-division world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao are given up to Monday to file an objection but face a tall order since it appears the contract was invalid in the first place.

Paradigm CEO Audie Attar and Pacquiao came to terms on a contract in 2020, ceding the fighter’s exclusive worldwide rights of “all employment opportunities.” But when Pacquiao fought Yordenis Ugas in 2021, Paradigm was not in the equation. That led to Paradigm suing Pacquiao and receiving a jury decision awarding Attar’s group $5.1 million in damages. Before the decision was made in May last year, it was reported that Pacquiao’s lawyers offered a settlement but Paradigm declined. Apparently, Paradigm’s lawyers were batting for up to $10 million, including legal fees and interest.
