San Diego TJ’s were included in Team Boxing League’s Feb. 4, 2026 plan for Manny Pacquiao to join ownership and serve as team captain in 2027.
The league sets out an ambassador-to-owner timeline
The league announced Pacquiao as its ambassador for the 2026 season. It outlined an expanded ownership role beginning in 2027 and continuing through 2029.
The announcement also proposed that Pacquiao compete for the San Diego expansion team. Specific appearances and a competitive debut were to be announced later.
CSB Take
The February announcement established the league’s intended timeline for the partnership. A named captain and proposed season provide early context, while individual bouts still require separate confirmation.
