Rumors are baseless, he may run the Presidency but he didn't deplete all his money because he has a lot of businesses.
As per report, in 2023 his net worth is a whooping $220 million. ( so stop that speculation or rumors)

Let us not assume that because a fighter who gain popularity in his pro, retired, and then try to go with exhibition fights are struggling with money? Maybe in the past it's reasonable, but now it's not anymore because it has been the trend, Mayweather goes into this exhibition fights too, is he struggling?

Pacquiao is my countryman and there's no truth to rumors that he is struggling with money Pacquiao knows how to handle his money he has billionaire friends who advise him on how to take care of money and how to do diversification, Manny just doesn't like inactivity all his life he is in action he started boxing at a very young age, and it's hard to take the love of boxing out of his system.
He is running his boxing promotion the MP Promotion and co-founded a Basketball league https://www.mpbl.com.ph/about/ he still owns a lot of properties and is still one of the richest people in the Philippines.

Is Pacquiao running out of money now? Just thinking about that but the passion will remain as he's a fighter, he'll always be.

These exhibition matches are going to be quick payment for him and whoever is going to agree fighting him. Well, at least we're still able to watch him fight before he fully retires and out of these fights.

I guess both fighters will just don't take it as if it's an exhibition match.

Well there were rumors that when he ran for President of the Philippines, he depleted his money and bank account. But I doubt it though, he has established himself and as far as I know he has a lot of houses still in the US. So that alone shows that he still has a lot of money.

But in this case, I mean why not? if he can still bankroll from his name then he should do it. And I think he learn this from Floyd Mayweather himself. As Floyd is making millions doing exhibition matches since he retired and people still wanting to see him in the ring.

There is no retirement for this man. But there is no mention of the location yet so maybe they are still negotiating where they will do it. Since Pacman is so rich I'm guessing the funds will be for the Gaza? He is doing this all the time so there is no surprise.

Pacman and Floyd seem to be enjoying all their exhibitions while the commenters below this article are seriously bitter about these exhibition fights.

That's what I thought too, given that he's gone from the ring for a long time now, it seems that he's not ever going back but it seems that Pacquiao's calling is something that he's not going to ignore and I think that as long as he can box, he would definitely be someone that's going to do so. I guess the reason why exhibition fights aren't that fun for them is because they think that it's a disrespect to the legendary status of some of the old fighters that's going for these matches so they feel that their ego gets damaged so they end up here. I think the hate on Floyd's justifiable, didn't he scammed Logan Paul out his money from their exhibition match?

Knowing Buakaw's background, I don't think that he's got a good footing against Pacquiao given that he's a traditional Muay Thai fighter meaning that he's likely deadly at kicks, knees and elbows so it's definitely a Pacquiao win for me but if the tables are turned and it's MMA then Pacquiao's gonna eat dust against Buakaw.

So this is an exhibition fight I hope both legends will not hurt each other because both fighters are still in their top condition especially Manny Pacquiao but I never estimated Buakaw is a legend in his league, he was very dangerous during his time.
You cannot stop these two legends from their respective fields when fighters retire they usually become inactive physically, they just manage new boxers or create a promotion, so with these two fighters, we will see if they are still in top form.
The format is very different and is meant to protect both fighters hopefully it is a friendly match I'm rooting for Pacquiao to win this match, I have seen him in his practice and he is still in top form.

When it comes to full power usage then in an exhibition fight then it wont really be shocking that they would really be making those adjustments on which it wasnt called exhibition match in the first place if they are really that trying to finish out the fight immediately. We've seen exhibition matches already on which making those kind of cross sport on which we know on whose really gonna be having the edge.
I was aware about Buakaw and heard off about his name but getting interested in Muay Thai then this is something my least favorite. Now i did make out some research and trying out to
see on what are those achievements made and surprisingly about on how many fans does Buakaw does haev.

It would really be interesting to see these matches but since this would really be playing out on boxing rules and it wont really be shocking that despite of being that a retired
boxer but still he would really be still have the guns on taking down an opponent but since this is an exhibition fight then it wont really matter much . What matter most is
on how they could bring out the excitement and thrill into those boxing or muay thai fans out of the world.

After his last professional fight against Ugas, I consider this a very tough fight for Manny, Buakaw is not a cherry-picked fight he is a legendary Muay Thai with strong followers many have taken Muay Thai discipline because of Buakaw and he elevated this sport to a greater height.
Manny's last exhibition fight against YouTuber DK Yoo is forgettable as the Youtuber did not offer resistance but this match-up is very different and I'm sure many fight fans will be interested to watch this fight as two legendaries in their fields will be in the ring.
This is going to be more interesting than watching Youtubers fights.

exhibition fight, Because of different athletes, who paquio is a boxing athlete, while his opponent Buakaw is a muangthay boxing athlete, free boxing same kick boxing, this means traditional Thai boxing.
just for entertainment not for the championship belt.

Not just for entertainment but also for the money, imagine a retired boxing legend stepping into the ring again and fight another fighter.

Too early to say but for sure, they will in favor Manny here as he is a legend and getting him is already a good market for them.

Still wondering why they retire in the first place if they will still accept an exhibition match like this.

Would be fun to watch both legends but was more excited on Pacquiao coming to the ring again considering I'm not that familiar with Buakaw though it ring a bell. I think the favor would be on Manny considering it is his niche that they'll fight for but there's not much of disparity though on both sports. Will support Pacquiao all the way.

I took a short glimpse at Buakaw's record and he had 242 Wins (73 (T)KO's), 24 Losses, 14 Draws, 2 No Contest [1] in Kickboxing / Muay Thai Record. I can say that is a lot of fight! But the problem is that, even with that lots of fight, Buakaw is somehow at a disadvantage here because he is limited to his punches and can not take advantage of his skills in Muay Thai. This is like Buakaw is fighting having his feet tied. The only advantage here is the age where Buakaw is 4 years younger if I am mistaken than Pacquiao who is at the age of 45.

Regardless of the matchmaking, I think this is another exciting exhibition match because we will be seeing two best fighters in each country.

I do not think that Manny is running out of money, I think it is more of a passion to fight in the ring and at the same time bring entertainment to the people while earning money to donate to charity. This is like hitting multiple birds in one stone.

Buakaw is one of the best muai thai fighters, although in the recent years I'd say that Rodtang became more popular, but about 15 years ago Buakaw was the most popular guy in this sport.
Basically every year he was in the top 3 of world K1 roster.
The only problem I see in this fight is that we'll have a muai thai fighter vs a boxer in a boxing match, so Manny is going to have the upper hand. Buakaw strength was mainly in his legs and he was also allowed to use elbows.

Not gonna lie that this favors for Manny considering his years as a pro in this sport was likely engraved in his skills. Moreover, if they are fighting for a cause then that's more than enough I guess because those who will benefit from this event was surely the winner. I just hope they'll collect more money for this and give it to those who needs it.

The people who live in the Thailand may have biggest opinion on the Pramuk because of the fighting style in the game.He made many K.O against many popular boxer in his history of boxing.So this match was allow the Pramuk to make the biggest opinion in the match against Pacquiao.

The statement from the Pacquiao on the Pramuk was the unforgettable one by the Thailand people.Because the style of the game make the opponent to praise before the match.Buakaw punches will not be forgotten by any boxers in the boxing community.The odds for the Buakaw in this game compared to Pacquiao.

The opinion is that Buakaw is an undefeated fighter, even though he has had several fight results that were not suitable, namely draws, but looking at his mentality and also how he fights shows that Buakaw is monster that Thailand has.
In fact, I really want to see Buakaw appear again in an MMA event because I saw how ferocious Buakaw was in attacking his opponent and how strong he was to withstand punches and kicks from his opponent.
Buakaw remains an idol for everyone without exception, his name has spread throughout the world as one of the best Muay Thai fighting legends of all time.

Yes, in his fight against Pacquiao it was very clear that Buakaw had very big chance of winning and of course what Pacquiao said was proof that Buakaw was indeed quite scary fighter even in traditional boxing.

I think this is fight that can restore Buakaw enthusiasm to remain champion in boxing and it is very likely that he will also start to return to being fighter who is on the alert, especially returning to the ring after his fight against Pacquiao.

Can't believe it's real and legit. Cheesy

These legends know how to take advantage of their names even after retirement. Technically speaking, Pacquiao still has the shape like he's not a retired boxer. Even if we put Pacquiao in an official fight the same within his comfort weight class, he can still probably defeat other boxers within that division.

Does anyone here betting on an exhibition match? They are just for entertainment right? Where's the thrill of betting there?

Yeah, basically that it, if Floyd and other retired boxer and MMA fighters can fight after retirement, then this two is not a exception. They are legend, both are still in their best shape of their lives despite out of their sports for many years.

This is exhibition matches, but I do not think that it will be a setup like other fight. Even in Manny's last fight, he really took it seriously to train. So maybe there will be odds out there and gamblers are still going to bet on it as it involves two legend in their own rights.

Manny's biggest paycheck in exhibition fight is just waiting for him, these two possible fights of Manny would bring him at least more than $100 million, just my wild guess though.

Pacman vs McGregor then afterwards, Pacman vs Mayweather 2.

I don't know what fights that are line up for him next year but hopefully at least one of these two possible big fight will happen.

- Buacaw Banchamek will take advantage of that to pull his name in the world of boxing because Manny Paquiao is a well-known person. Win or lose, this Banchamek has something for you. Same with Pacquiao.

If I'm not mistaken, Buakaw is already retired and I don't think he has intentions to pull his name in the world of boxing. Just is just pure exhibition match but both of them are going the get a fat check that's for sure.

Quote from: Mr. Magkaisa on December 30, 2023, 04:42:52 AM

Since this is just an exhibition, the favor may go to Pacquiao, for sure. Remember his last exhibition match before? Was it against a Korean? He just played with his opponent there, so it's probably the same in his fight with Buacaw, for sure.

Yes it was against a South Korean Youtuber name DK Yoo, and won in the judges scorecard. He dominated the fight and he could still knockout DK, but the didn't and settled of a the judges with a unanimous decision.

I saw this news a few days ago and wasn’t sure if it was credible. There have been so many rumored Pacquiao fights that never really materialized like the ones against McGregor and Ryan Garcia.

I knew about the McGregor fight, but not with Ryan Garcia.

In fact, Pacman was ordered to pay $5 million to Paradigm Sports Management, this was on the possible fight between him and McGregor but didn't happen.

If it is legitimate then it should be an interesting bout. Buakaw is not some random youtuber or some undersized guy going up in weight. He is a recently active fighter with some experience in bare knuckle boxing. Although Pacquiao should be the favorite, I believe Buakaw could still be somewhat competitive against him.

With exhibition matches we don’t really know if it is a scripted result or not so there might not be many casinos taking bets on this fight.

This was already confirmed, so I believe it's legitimate. Both fighters will be fighting in Bangkok, Thailand.

Great, I missed the news about the fight of Muay Thai legend who has previously been absent from fighting and he is favorite for everyone who loves Muay Thai free fighting.
Buakaw Por. Pramuk is everyone favorite fighter, especially the Thai people, he is living legend for the art of the sport of Muay Thai in Thailand.

Manny Pacquiao himself stated that he would be very careful with Buakaw fighting style, even though this fight was held as traditional boxing, Buakaw himself has very strong punches.
If the fight is free fight, perhaps Pacquiao will suffer defeat more quickly because he won't be able to keep up with how Buakaw fights.

I know in this fight of course Buakaw is the favorite and I will see what odds I can get from betting Buakaw.

The people who live in the Thailand may have biggest opinion on the Pramuk because of the fighting style in the game.He made many K.O against many popular boxer in his history of boxing.So this match was allow the Pramuk to make the biggest opinion in the match against Pacquiao.
