Manny is 42 years old and Mayweather is 43 years old. I am not saying they are too old to fight, I mean are they too old to fight the best right now? Maybe, wouldn't be sure about that neither but they could be, because fighters do get worse the older they get but they do not suddenly become like a regular person like you or me, they are still the best boxers of their time and we have seen Mike Tyson who hasn't had a fight in over 15 years and how awesome he was, he would still knock me out with one punch.

However we also have to be realistic that this fight that manny and mayweather would have could become a lot worse compared to their last fight, doesn't really look all that promising to me, at this age it wouldn't be as entertaining as we imagine. There is no talks of it neither so I think it Is not going to happen, Mayweather will probably keep fighting these low level fights and beat chumps for few million, and Manny will continue to be politician.

As far as Mayweather is concerned, he has earned as much as he wanted to earn from boxing and that is why he is not interested in another fight against Manny Pacquiao. He is retired from professional boxing and he doesn't want to go back. A few exhibition matches would keep him entertained for the next 2-3 years and should provide him with enough pocket change.
I think Manny is not yet retired, he is just resting and got busy because he is a politician too, but the rematch with Mayweather is possible but not probable , I mean we all know that these fight that happen many years ago is a million dollar fight because many people are interested, one with a world championship belts in different division and one who is undefeated, but the thing is I don't know if Floyd will agree to it, since as far as I know he don't do any rematch.

Actually rematch against Pacquiao and Floyd is possible depending on both boxer or depending on Floyd. But it still did not happen because Floyd does not want to. In my opinion probably it is because of pride. He wants too to feel frustration Manny on his loss against him. Money  here does not matter anymore because both fighters are already rich and to Floyd again what he wanted to defend was his pride that he was able to win one of the best fighter in the world. Anyway, a rematch or no rematch happening I can only say that still Manny is the best boxer with his excellent fighting style completely opposite to Floyd having calculated punches but boring to watch. 
Yes like what I had said, it will all depends on Floyd, since he is the undefeated man in the boxing world, so it is depend on him and to his manager, as much as people and betters wants it, if Floyd himself don't want it, it will never be.

Live with peace and enjoy life!
Because for me that's the money fight, whatever angle you look at it. We all know that he is all in for the money, then a Pacquaio fight will set boxing records again, but he refuse, for whatever reason. And then fight for exhibition for less money?

In case the GGG vs Canelo though, Canelo doesn't want to give GGG a rematch.

And Floyd being Floyd, chooses a non boxer to fight, yes a bigger man, but as far as ring experienced, he has nothing, easy fight for Mayweather.

And for the sake for the argument that a boxer shouldn't rematch someone because they beat them convincingly, take Donaire vs Darchy, Donaire knock him out for good, but they met a year or two later for a rematch because Darchy is asking for it, same result.

As far as Mayweather is concerned, he has earned as much as he wanted to earn from boxing and that is why he is not interested in another fight against Manny Pacquiao. He is retired from professional boxing and he doesn't want to go back. A few exhibition matches would keep him entertained for the next 2-3 years and should provide him with enough pocket change.

I doubt that, Mayweather has already retired before and then he go back in boxing, so it's still possible that he will go back but there's a very small percentage since he is not getting any younger, but since Manny is still active in professional boxing, and him coming back will give him another break to fight Manny and make as much or even bigger than he made in the first fight, but I wonder what will be the sharing.

^^ Manny Pacquiao rematch? Nah, Floyd will not fight him again, that's why he is doing some exhibitions and easy match for millions to avoid Manny at all cost.

I don't understand the point in fighting against the same individual again and again. Floyd beat Manny once, and that should be it. He won the match in a very lop-sided manner. The same goes for other boxers as well. I can understand the GGG vs Canelo trilogy fight, because the first match ended in a draw and the second one was stolen from GGG. So the purpose of the third match is justified. But that is not the case with Floyd vs Manny.

^^ Manny Pacquiao rematch? Nah, Floyd will not fight him again, that's why he is doing some exhibitions and easy match for millions to avoid Manny at all cost.

And besides, fighting 4 easy match will scoop him enough money that could equal Manny Pacquaio fights, so he is really that intelligent as far as his boxing career and generating money even though he is retired. And I don't think he is in for his legacy, although undefeated, he didn't give Manny a rematch so that might hurt him. But he doesn't care because he has richest sports personalities in the last 10-15 years.
He is the man. I hate him when I've first watched him against Manny. He is a strategist and he understands the risk and possibilities if he is going for a fight.

He has already made his name, these exhibitions for him are like part time jobs. He had nothing to lose even if lose it but it is unlikely that he will lose from someonw who dont have a professional record.

And as always, we are his source of income as we have to pay in order to watch the fight, for me, I would not watch the fight, I'll only do if it's for free as I know this is just a boring fight. Mayweather already had  made fortune in boxing but he is still around, though he has retired, he is still involve in boxing outside his professional life.

Mayweather knows how to make millions without much sweat and he is doing his business Grin.


Cant blame the man, he didnt create the hype and the interest but it built up and around him and who would turn down money for a days work he knows he can do.    

Quote
Nah, Floyd will play this match by the points and just try his best to avoid those punches. He knows this too well that Logan is undeniably larger than him, that is why he will safe in this match.

Thats all I'm looking for, if there is complacency and arrogance because the opponent has not long been a boxer then it opens the door to upset.   In any normal fight where he does the job and is prepared to do the work before the match up then he wins, its only because its an exhibition match that I think odds for the draw should be included.   He is eleven years younger then Tyson which counts alot in his favor coming back off the bench in comparison to that fight though I know its very different its the same idea of more entertainment then sport betting.

Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe

Logan has still some sufficient time to make up some training at least he can last up some rounds.
Logan Paul is an athlete and he can complete the entire fight without gassing out and more over he was a Division one wrestler and his brother Jake is also a top wrestler and an athlete and Floyd Mayweather is not known for his punching power and he wins fights due to his technical skills rather than power even during his prime and is known to have brittle hands.

That said you cannot compare them with boxing skills but this is an exhibition bout and we will see the fight going the full distance and Mayweather winning the fight by points.

In professional matches, he won't do it anymore to keep his undefeated record. But he can still do what he wants as long as it's not a professional box.
Mayweather does not need to show anything further to cement his legacy, the only interesting fight he can sign a contract for the boxing fans is the Manny rematch that everyone wants to see and he will avoid that Cheesy.

This fight is not about professionalism anymore its a plain show just to raise money, Mayweather is more of a businessman than a professional boxer. He can schedule a fight to whoever celebrity he want, I will not be surprise after this fight that he’ll schedule another nonsensical match.

And this thing will continue as long he's not retired. He would really be tending to make exhibition fights like this on the sense that these fights arent
official ones and also less risky since he know that he had the edge against the enemy and that wont really be a hard job for him and still making tons
of money with less effort.Some boxer do even consider on making similar path but only those who are known like Mayweather is really having this
kind of behavior.

As long as he can gain money, I believe he will do this in his lifetime. Logan Paul is by no means a match for him. So this exhibition fight is just really for the money. Wonder how many rounds this will last? Will the bookies add this match or is it just a waste of time adding this fight? As the clear winner here is Mayweather, so if bookies will add this, no one will bet on Logan Paul.  Grin
This is a big fight because fans are talking about this fight, thing is, they are not interested to see the outcome, they just talk why this fight is happening despite it's not really an attractive one. Bookies adding the odds is not a waste of time to them as they are just accepting or facilitating bets which means they make profit regardless of the outcome.

In fact, there are early betting odds that was already shared here, just back read a little.

And this thing will continue as long he's not retired.

Or let's say "this will continue as long as we are buying the PPV"... actually he is already retired in professional boxing, but look what he is doing, he is still fighting and making easy money, well, we can't blame him, he saw the support so he keeps doing it.
This is exactly what it is. As long as they are looking at the market share for this type of match, there will be customers and they will see that there will be watchers who would willing to pay for it.

In professional matches, he won't do it anymore to keep his undefeated record. But he can still do what he wants as long as it's not a professional box.

There would be some odds but would be set to 1.01.Would you bet on that one?
These fights is just really for entertainment purposes only and there no way for Logan on beating up Floyd in what angle.Youre both right on saying
that this will continue as long he would able to make money and it doesnt matter if it would be affecting his dignity as a boxer as long he do make
some bucks then that what matter most.Logan has still some sufficient time to make up some training at least he can last up some rounds.

Floyd Mayweather is retired as a professional boxer and he is 43 years of age and why would anyone want to see him in a professional bout at this age. He made his money during his career and as a businessman he will take any opportunity to make money and that is why he took the fight between Conor McGregor in a professionally bout as they were able to create the momentum to make that fight the biggest in the history and they earned what every other fighters make in their career with one fight.

So let him enjoy these perks of easy money making and he will make money as long as there is interest in watching his fights.
