If that 5M$ will donate all in separated charities then it's a big one. But maybe not only in Philippines can benefit that cause there's a rumors that some area of Ukraine manny will donate his money with but I am not sure if that will be legit just a rumors. But if that will happen the. That's good for the people of Ukraine as we all know what happened to their country.
Let's wait for the new update is manny pacman will fight again .

I made some research and the article said that manny pacquiao will donate the money in ukraine but I don't think it's just a rumor since manny have donated his money before and he even said it himself that almost half of the money he earn in boxing goes to less unfortunate people so I say that manny will really donate to Ukraine if he said it himself. For now, we can only wait the result if pacquiao will donate to Ukraine if he really said it or not if someone just made it up.

This exhibition matches that the Paul brothers has started is so big right now that they have their own promotions already to handle their fight.

So no longer the youtube sensation, they are fighting and make tons of money, they also mentioned that they also wanted to be a boxer or UFC promoter someday. They become business minded too.

But there are hardcore fans of boxing, who may not like this kind of exhibitions matches for sure because some of the fights could be rigged or simply mismatch and of course close to scamming fans of their money because it's not a real fight.

Totally a mismatch considering on what sports that they are really that involved with or something that they have the interest on.Yes, they can fight but not something that could get in par with those fighters which
are really that having that specialized or being expertise on a said sport ex. boxing which they are really tending to make up some fights with real boxer which it is really just obvious on whose gonna win.
It is really impossible for you to be an individual on not to make some focus on something that could generate out millions of profits on just going inside the ring together with a famous boxer or something like that.
Now it is really that becoming a trend which it doesnt surprise me if these people do really make out some focus on launching up exhibition matches.

I admire the Paul brothers for being smart. They had progressed from being a vlogger to a sports promoter. They do know how to handle marketing stuff and even put themselves on the line in order to hit their target.

Yes, there are hardcore boxing fans that hate exhibition matches but these hardcore boxing fans have a boxer that they wanted to see fighting so I think even it is an exhibition fight, if their favorite boxer is in it, they will definitely bend just to watch the fight of their favorite boxers.

Meanwhile, DK Yoo admitted that punches of Manny are like a hard rock when it hits him. And he said that he never saw where the punches are coming from because they were all fast and hard punches while Manny Pacquiao is still assessing if he is able to come back to a professional boxing ring and said that it would be still a welterweight (147 lbs) if he comes back.

It's just going to be a few months away. I think there's no charity involved in this but I'm sure with what he said, whether it's said or not that this exhibition match is for charity.
He's always too generous to give a portion of it to his townsmen, he's got a lot of houses built already out of his pocket and he said that he's not going to stop but will continue this that he has started.

So this becomes the trend now, on which retired boxers are making and deal off with exhibition matches? Some might not really be that caring at all because its peoples choice whether they would watch and support

it or would be just totally be saying "meh" into their minds.As for fan of Pacquiao then you would be liking him to see up in the ring but since he's fighting off on something which isnt really in his level
then you could already expect on what would be the result and that what makes these fights arent interesting anymore.

Charitable actions or something like are very common but what i do matter most is that i should really be at least entertained if i do see a fight or match.

Yeah, a trend that has started out with the Paul Brothers that they do challenge other sports athlete and fighters to fight them into an exhibition matches.
There's big money on it and they're able to make a lot of it because the fans are interested with their matches and they have seen how profitable it is, so, other professionals are also doing it.

MANILA, Philippines—Manny Pacquiao is set for another exhibition fight this time, against his former sparring mate Jaber Zayani in Saudi Arabia next year.

https://sports.inquirer.net/477665/manny-pacquiao-set-for-saudi-exhibition-next-year

So whether we like it or not, Manny will continue this kind of match, not sure though if the next fight will be for the charity again or he will get the full money. In any case, he has been helping many of his countryman specially this Christmas when he comes back to the Philippines after his fight with DK.

It's just going to be a few months away. I think there's no charity involved in this but I'm sure with what he said, whether it's said or not that this exhibition match is for charity.

Charitable actions or something like are very common but what i do matter most is that i should really be at least entertained if i do see a fight or match.

Obviously it is right now, not just retired boxers, but MMA/UFC or any other sport want to get their hands on this so called exhibition match for money and get that adrenaline pumping again. So it's a win-win, at least even if they are retired, they can continue to bring money inside. Because maybe there are sports personalities who for unknown reasons didn't save enough when they are still active and may financial problems.

And the pandemic really bring this exhibition matches and up to this day, going to continue.

The Paul Brothers and Floyd are making a killing about this game now.

Well, you do have the point but we wont be able to know if a certain athlete or fighter or something like this does able to make out investment or able to put up their money in the right place or not.
We cant able to point out if they are really into that condition but there are indeed who do end up on being less finances compared to those who had placed out their money on the right
place.
Yes, it is really becoming the trend now on where these exhibition matches do really happens and this do talks about cross-sports. Retired players or fighters
wont really be just stressing out themselves about being beaten since this isnt official then stats arent really that been affected.

Pacman vs Dk Yoo fight supposed to be a charity fight. Does anyone know how much they have rised? Or the whole fight-event was so boring, that no one is interested in that?

there are still no announcements (or at least I haven't found any) but this article(link below) made an estimation of how much Pacquiao and DK Yoo will get from the fight. I don't know if DK Yoo will donate the money he'll get from this fight but I saw in one of the articles that Pacquiao plans to donate the money he will get from this fight.

https://www.sportspayouts.com/boxing/manny-pacquiao-vs-dk-yoo-purse-payouts/

According to the article, Pacman owns 80% of the PPV share they'll get in this fight, and as estimated, it's $5 million USD, so it's a huge amount of money if that will all go to the charity. If converted in Philippine pesos, that's almost 300 million pesos, I think that's too big for one charity, maybe plenty of charities will benefit.

That's a lot of money, but is it confirmed?

$5 million is a decent amount for an exhibition fight, Pacman was not even trying hard to win, so it's called easy Money for Manny.

About the charity donation, there's plenty of charity in the Philippines, so if Pacman would really give everything he received, that will be a big help for the charities selected.

Yes, it's already confirmed that he will be donating all of the money that he earned in his recent fight against DK Yoo.

Quote

Manny Pacquiao says his return to the ring will provide homes for 80 families in need
* The Filipino fighting legend told Insider this week that he won't receive any of the money.
* 100% of the proceeds will go toward two charities, Pacquiao said.

https://sports.yahoo.com/manny-pacquiao-says-return-ring-215556886.html

I also heard that Manny Pacquiao have his own foundation, which is not that surprising because there's a lot of rich people who have their own foundation as well. So, I think a fraction of what he earned in the fight will be donated in that stated foundation as well aside from what's stated in the quoted article above.

If someone offers me a million bucks for an exhibition match, I would retire from bitcointalk Grin

Just kidding Grin

I agree that Paul brothers have started that exhibition fight killing spree. They were not the first who have started exhibition fights, but they were first to match pro vs non pro / average Joe fights. Boxing in general kills other sports, with their enormous rewards. We all know how to swing hands and punch, but we dont earn million per second with that. Other sports also rewards pro players with millions, but they have long lasting contracts. In boxing - run and be knocked out, get a million, go home, attract everyone.

It is true that martial arts is different when it comes to boxing because the rules are also different, but martial arts is also about speed and to respond well in such attacks by showing how good your reflexes are. And seriously, I didn't saw those attributes to DK Yoo when he was facing Pacquiao recently on the ring and frankly that's the reason why DK Yoo's face is now becoming a meme.

Maybe because of the difference in the fighting nature, DK Yoo's approach to Pacquiao is not shown.

It's also worth noting that they also fight within Pacquiao's comfort zone which is boxing.

If we changed the situation where Pacquiao will fight DK Yoo in a martial arts fight, the result might have a chance to favor DK Yoo since that is his nature.

Exactly, but of course the exhibition fight will be in boxing because it's more popular, and Pacman is very popular in that sport. Just like Mayweather, he didn't fight in UFC so he continued his dominance against a UFC fighter which is Conor McGregor.

This was only an exhibition fight in boxing, so the reason why the rules were in favor of boxing.
It was a charity bout so no big deal with the results but Pacquiao showed his prowess inside the ring even if it was just an exhibition fight.
Definitely, if it is under the protocols of UFC, the outcome may have been different.
Anyway, Pacquiao showed that he was indeed a boxing star on this match, where a lot of people were still waiting for him to fight one more time inside the ring.
So hopefully, he got good amount to help whatever charity organization he was intending to assist with.

In terms of charities, there's always a good portion of his winning money for his sponsor charity venues. Pacquiao is always doing that each time to fight, and now, even it's an exhibition there's always money involve and with the volume or amount we don't have any idea the only sure here is both actors/fighters have their shares for performing inside the ring.

What next for Pacquiao now? If I heard it right, he's working for another exhibition and he will be more active as there are also some interviews where he's also showing interest in coming back in the real boxing ring.

As reported his next fight will be against his former sparring partner Jaber Zayani and it will be held in Saudi Arabia.

If we changed the situation where Pacquiao will fight DK Yoo in a martial arts fight, the result might have a chance to favor DK Yoo since that is his nature.

Exactly, but of course the exhibition fight will be in boxing because it's more popular, and Pacman is very popular in that sport. Just like Mayweather, he didn't fight in UFC so he continued his dominance against a UFC fighter which is Conor McGregor.

This was only an exhibition fight in boxing, so the reason why the rules were in favor of boxing.
It was a charity bout so no big deal with the results but Pacquiao showed his prowess inside the ring even if it was just an exhibition fight.
Definitely, if it is under the protocols of UFC, the outcome may have been different.
Anyway, Pacquiao showed that he was indeed a boxing star on this match, where a lot of people were still waiting for him to fight one more time inside the ring.
So hopefully, he got good amount to help whatever charity organization he was intending to assist with.

Btw, isnt DK Yoo a striker ? He mostly shows punches and kicks. I havent seen him wrestle. Even if he would be allowed to kick or better use low kicks to get distance and attack, I think Manny will find a way to go to close distance and throw his combo bombs.

DK is a martial artist, combination of striker, grappler and throws I think. The kick is a huge advantage over punches, this will keep Manny at bay. Besides, elbows and knee can also be used by DK Yoo that is way devastating than punches when they get "close and personal" Grin

In short we had DK Yoo wings clipped while Manny is all free to fly. Indedd Manny can find ways to get closer but it would be harder than we think.

And the opposite will happen if Mayweather fought McGregor inside the octagon and if that happened, I guess Pretty Boy won't be that pretty anymore as the latter will seriously destroy him inside his comfort zone. Just like what will happen to Manny Pacquiao if he fought DK Yoo in a kickboxing because the Filipino legend is not that used to fight in that certain sport. Anyway, it was nice seeing Manny Pacquiao again inside the ring.

I agree, anyone fighting at his comfort zone will show a better performance. Just like Mayweather and McGregor if it was an MMA fight, I do not think Mayweather will last a round.

It is true that martial arts is different when it comes to boxing because the rules are also different, but martial arts is also about speed and to respond well in such attacks by showing how good your reflexes are. And seriously, I didn't saw those attributes to DK Yoo when he was facing Pacquiao recently on the ring and frankly that's the reason why DK Yoo's face is now becoming a meme.
