I don't know if Pacquiao's team would go for an agreement for possible fight with MacGregor. Both we're strong in fields of boxing and any hype stories will probably comes out particular on stream media articles, so for now we can't give any further conclusions yet unless there's a final statement during their interviews on fox sports or any other press conferences.

If that is about to happen really, then I think that this match should occur at Vegas as Well, this could be a great fight the same hype like pacquio-mayweather but what is good about this is the potential scenario that betting sites will accept bets concerning this fight. This will enable us to bet who will win and earn some profits. So think about it, Both fighters have different fields, but I think this doesn't matter as long as they both perform very well in the ring.

After the win of McGregor over Cowboy, the name of Manny Pacquiao and Mc Gregor showed up again. Manny is a type of boxer that he is willing to fight anyone even if it is a trashtalker, it is also same for Mc Gregor. The fight between the two will only happen if both of their management will agree to have a match. But for now, I do not think that both of the team will have an agreement in to this fight.

Yes, this fight is a big possibility. But to those people wanting to see McGregor brutally punished by Pacman, you might be disappointed. McGregor team knows they can make money anywhere and that he is probably the bigger name now than Pacman. That if, the rumors are true that McGregor will receive $50 to $80 million after PPV and other profit counts on his cherry picked opponent Cerrone. If that is true which is really possible, then I don't think McGregor will allow himself to fight Pacman. McGregor can easily cherry picked anybody in mma and boxing then and still can earn big amounts. Remember that this is all about business.

Arum told ESPN.com on Wednesday that he would like to make a two-fight deal for Crawford to fight UFC superstar Conor McGregor. According to Arum, one of those fights would be a boxing match and the other would be an MMA match.[/i]

LOL, so Arum is riding on the Conor bandwagon now. I'm sure that if he still have Manny Pacquiao today, he can set up the fight and milk the hell out of it. So I'm not surprise with his statement though, we all know how Arum works, if the money is good, then go for it. I was wondering though if he is in the same page with Crawford, specially an MMA match with Conor.

I reckon that this might have more chance and possibility to become real than Conor versus Pacman or Conor versus Floyd rematch. Does Bob Arum not always gets what he wants hehehe?



Arum Wants Crawford-McGregor In Octagon & Boxing Ring

Bob Arum has turned to mixed martial arts in his quest to find an appealing opponent for Terence Crawford.

Arum is now absorbed by this new trend of just making money regardless of how the fight would actually turn out. If he pursues this crazy fight, he is also kind of crazy.

And I think Conor will look more terrible against Crawford than against Mayweather.

Conor McGregor said he's in talks to box Manny Pacquiao, and a prominent boxing reporter says the Filipino is interested

LAS VEGAS — Conor McGregor said he has been in talks to box Manny Pacquiao, and a prominent boxing reporter said the Filipino is interested in the fight.

Business Insider attended Wednesday's press conference at the Palms Casino Resort's Pearl Theater for McGregor and Donald Cerrone to build interest in their UFC 246 welterweight fight at the T-Mobile Arena on Saturday.

McGregor mentioned that his plans included a return to the boxing ring to improve on his losing record, having been defeated by Floyd Mayweather three years ago.

McGregor said he thought he did well against Mayweather in 2017. "With adjustments, I'd do better," he said. "Now I'd take victory."

Do you think this fight is possible? sure, it's gonna bring a lot of money for both fighters and this should be a better fight than conor vs mayweather because we might see the power of Manny here punish a trash talker conor.

What do you think on this article?
to sum up all in ine word its just money, you see conor is an fighter in the octagon pacquaio is a boxer, I dont see anything interesting in the fight, even with mayweather and pacquaio go for part 2 it will not be interesting also, If I were the adviser of the two, I would say dont humilate yourselves, by going to another mans ring, stay with your ring , not worth it at all just my opinion

For sure McGregor is not going to win against Manny Pacquiao if it is going to be a boxing match, Manny Pacquiao is already a veteran in boxing compared to McGregor I think this is not a fair fight because they have different sports overall.

A lot of people influence this fight, in my opinion, it is not going to be who is going to win the game but all about the money, Surely this fight is going to be a moneymaker.

If that is really wants to fight Manny Pacquiao just give him a chance but still up to Manny if he will fight Conor McGregor last fight of Manny he won against Thurman and I think once this fight have already official date and really have Im really sure that Manny will win again this fight.

But still now we need to wait but Im sure this is really possible to happen or high chance to happen but there is still no specific date for that fight.

This thread should be close although it generates a lot of interest it's unlikely that it's going to happen, already Dana White talks of preferring a rematch with Khabib or any other top MMA fighters which he has a chance to win than a fight with Manny Pacquiao, I myself prefer Connor to face Khabib in his next fight.

Depends on op but discussions like this should be cut out yet these are only rumors but at least we do already saw community feedbacks.

I myself would also like to see fight which on appropriate sport not on just crossing boarders but for entertainment then i might consider it but for actual or true essence of sport then its inappropriate on any angle.

I reallly want this fight and I hope it will happen this year and Yes it takes more momey for this and many people will bet to each other who gonna win this fight if that happen but if this two fighters agree to fight and I believ this ia one of the best fight in the history.

Manny is Filipino so that if he have fight in any boxing fighterI will still bet or choose him because I believe to his ability and skills in fighting in the boxing because he is one the best boxing player in the history of boxing and best boxer in the Philippines and all Filipino know that Im excited to have that fight I hope we can get an official announcement.

Well, you got some points though yet Mayweather and Pacquiao do have different fighting styles but the question is, would that counter punch of Conor would able to knock Manny? When it comes to experience
and punishes then i can say that, a Boxer can withstand it.
There is no doubt that styles makes fights and if the fight is put together there will be fans to watch the event and there will be people who wants to see Conor McGregor getting knocked out rather than the referee calling off the fight, the major problem with fight calculation is that the math wont work and that means Conor was defeated by arguably the best defensive boxers of all time and Manny is an offensive fighter and Conor is considered to be the best counter striker but how the fight goes between them will create the hype in itself.

But lets see on how Conor would perform on this one.Im really still have the doubts when it comes to stamina issues.
Stamina is the biggest issue of Conor as we all know what happened when he was dragged to the later rounds and i do not see any magical recipe to sort that issue, pacing is everything and if he is able to do that in a fight then he will have a chance in the fight and he has shown that in the fight against Nate Diaz in their rematch.

There would be no bookies would offer this line because all people know on whose gonna win.I dont know if there where still people who do
dream for Conor to beat Pacquiao's ass. The thing here is that both fighters will get some huge money on this fight and this would surely
be hyped up.
I am also not expecting a big numbers for Conor McGregor as he will be the underdog by a big margin, the only interesting fact is that the age of Manny Pacquiao and his fighting style, Floyd Mayweather is a defensive genius but that is not the case with Manny he is an attacking boxer and Conor is good at counter punch, i know it does not mean anything but this will be the only reason why anyone would watch the fight Grin.

I think at their sport they could easily dominate if Conor McGregor is going to fight Manny Pacquiao in a boxing match Pacquiao is going to win but if Pacquaio is going to fight McGregor in an MMA Fight Mcgregor is going to be the one that is going to win just like what happened when he fought Floyd Mayweather. We know that Floyd Mayweather is going to dominate Mcgregor since this is Weather sports Mcgregor could be a strong puncher by Manny Pacquiao is already punches a thousand times more than McGregor since he also practices kicks in an MMA match.

I’m not a fan of these stupid cross sport money makers. It makes a mockery of boxing, stick to MMA Conor.
True. Yet money still talks in mysterious ways that's why these type of fights are foreseeable in the future even if they have their own fields in fighting. But, they both use same stance in fighting. I don't know much about fighting if southpaw is different from boxing to MMA.

There is no doubt that a Conor McGregor fight will earn  Manny Pacquiao his biggest check to date and so is the reason i am sure that  Manny Pacquiao will be really interested to fight Conor McGregor and it all depends upon the interest level of Conor as he is having a lot of leverage on choosing his next opponent as he will earn a huge pay day even if he fights Nate Diaz for the trilogy, so it all depends upon what Conor wants to do next.
It could be a huge fight but how huge it can be is still speculative as Conor McGregor lost his last fight in the boxing ring but there is a twist of things in this as the promoter Bob Arum wants Conor McGregor to face Terence Crawford instead of Manny Pacquiao an he proposed a two fight deal, one inside the UFC and other in the boxing ring and it looks like an attractive deal and whether Conor will accept the offer is to be seen.

If the fight happens, I can't imagine Manny's face everytime Conor tries to talk trash during face offs and interviews. He will probably laugh the whole time. Maybe he should hire an "anger translator" again  Cheesy
"LOL" Conor's mouth is already famous for rubbish words..  I really want this match to happen (because I really want to see how Manny hits Conor's dirty face and mouth).  I'd be willing to spend a lot of money to bet on Manny  Cheesy
