I concur, even if I know that this fight will be just for the money I love Manny and I will watch him fight as long as he is willing to step up in a ring, promoters know this so they can take huge advantage of this and arrange fights that will not be a huge challenge but that will bring a lot of viewers, and that will be one of those fights, also the fight against Mayweather will be somewhat similar since both fighters are out of their prime and they are not going to offer the best show as they could in the past.
I understand you are a huge Manny Pacquiao fan and i would pay for a rematch between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao as i would love to watch the rematch as i thought the first fight was a close fight and if the fight was taken place elsewhere the results would have been different, i understand the offensive style of Mayweather but as a causal fan i saw Manny landing the punches and he was aggressive throughout the fight and he was having a injured shoulder and the athletic commission did not allow Pacquiao to take any pain killer and still it was a great fight for me and i want to see the rematch when both are healthy, they dragged the fight for a long time but now both are on the end of their careers and Mayweather already retired but i can watch them fight one more time but against Conor it will be a high PPV but i am not interested to see that fight but if they can put that fight then i will watch as a fight fan.

This will create a huge hype, I am sure many people wants to see McGregor and Manny fight in the ring. Manny has an advantage since boxing is his forte and he is well known for his powerful left hand and speed. It will be interesting how McGregor will prepare and adjust on this fight if this happens.

I don't think many people wants to see this fight. If we look back to McGregor vs Mayweather fight people are disappointed and feels like they were scammed. Real boxing fans doesn't want another clown fighting a legend in boxing.

That's only an initial reaction, maybe they want to see it again now.

Just like after the fight of Manny and Mayweather, after the fight, a lot of people were disappointed on the fight and it's result, but now they are pushing a rematch although we already know that its still gonna be the same boring fight.

There is this weird rock paper scissors thing going on with conor+floyd+pacman, of course both floyd beat conor and pacman will certainly beat him too but the reality is that it took 10 rounds for floyd to beat conor, he let conor to just get tired and beat him like that, it has always been his style so I can understand why he did that but at the same time dude had talents to take him out on the first few rounds and decided not to and played safe. Pacman is more aggressive, he actually punches his opponents hard and he could knock out conor very fast.

I still think conor is on track for a title at UFC so I doubt he would consider another boxing match, he wanted to fight mayweather because that would yield superb amount of money, he would rather win UFC title than fight pacman for just a little bit more money or maybe not even as much.

Connor would take that boxing match.  He would stand to make 10s of millions and does not effect his mma career.  Put me on the card and I would step in there for that payday.  Would get my ass stomped but well worth every lump.

Is this match a real thing?
I have seen a post of Floyd Mayweather that he announced a round 2 between him and McGregor but I think that the game between Pacman and him would be more interesting to watch.

People already saw that McGregor is nothing against a boxer. I don't believe this fight will create a big hype. This is totally a waste of money for people.

McGregor will generate more money if his next fight will be on Octagon. No need to cross the path on boxing where he is struggling and just try to reach the top again in UFC. On the other hand, Pacquaio should consider only a pure boxer to become his next opponent. There are top boxers today that is worth to fight compare to McGregor.

Conor might be good at MMA but when it comes to boxing, Manny has all the advantages to knock him out in an instant, I don't see Conor Mcgregor winning at all. Maybe what he can do is all talk, but he is messing with the wrong guy in his own field of expertise, but still, I'm looking forward to this fight if Conor is really going for it, news in articles says, Pacquiao is just waiting for him.
Manny Pacquiao is the superior boxer and no one will debate about it but Conor McGregor is a good counter striker and i will not be surprised if Conor floors Manny Pacquiao but that said i am not expecting any upset but anything is possible while fighting and if Conor McGregor is interested then Manny Pacquiao will accept the fight because of the huge pay day.

If the fight between McGregor and Manny Pacquiao will be set then it would be a good entertainment for us and also a good betting game because we all know that both of them are very good in terms of their careers, but one thing we need to know is what field they will fight, in the octagon ring or on the boxing court? If it would be on the boxing court then probably I will go for Mr Manny Pacquiao but if it is in the Octagon ring then I will go for McGregor. McGregor is very good in terms of using both hands and feet so when Manny Pacquiao will be able to fight McGregor in the octagon then obviously he will lose on it.
If the fight will happen i assume that Mcgregor and Pacquiao will definitely have a match in the boxing ring just like what happened between Mcgregor and Mayweather because it will be unfair for boxers if they will fight McGregor in the octagon ring that McGregor has a huge advantage, that is why the fight will really happen in the boxing ring because it is equally match. But really vote for Manny Pacquiao if this fight will really happen because Pacquiao is really a great boxer and has more experience than McGregor in the boxing ring.

It might be easier for Conor to win versus Floyd Mayweather than Pacman, I reckon. Pacman's hand speed, strength and cardio would overwhelm Conor in all the rounds

But Mayweather is undefeated so its safe to say that he is better than Manny Pacquiao.

With Mayweather intelligence in the ring, he knows how to fight without him putting in a risky situation that he could be knock out, manny is different, he like to give more entertainment to the fans so he will be aggressive, I like to see it happen and possibly a knock out for Conor would happen.
boxing is all about BOXING and not running,yeah Mayweather might be better in terms of rankings and being  undefeated but if we compared between His style and Manny?we can differentiate who is a true Boxer and not only looking for Belt or trophy but to fight as what he stands for.

anyway about Conor since this is Boxing ?he surely has no chance of winning against Manny not unless referee will allow Him to take down Manny using MMA technique .

What are you talking about "true boxer".  If you dont think floyd is a "true" boxer you have watched too many rocky movies.  Floyd is probably the pound for pound best boxer in the last 20-30 years if not of all time.  Nobody could touch floyd, that's what you call boxing.  Its offensive and defensive not just go out there and wild out.

I’m not a fan of these stupid cross sport money makers. It makes a mockery of boxing, stick to MMA Conor.
Promoters are hungry for the money that's why they will do everything to attract gamblers and fans to support this kind of cross sports.
We all knew that it's all about money and there's nothing else, entertaining fans and discuss about the share profits after the fight.

I reckon Conor would not finish 6 rounds versus Pacman.

That if Manny will take this fight seriously, this fight purpose is just to entertain the crowd and we know Manny is not as aggressive as before and he also become a businessman and an entertainer, so probably he would allow to make this fight reach to 12 rounds or less at least, by him dictating the fight.

Yes Floyd is better than Pacman, however, Pacman's style, hand speed, hand strength and cardio will be harder for Conor. Pacman will not give him time to rest.

Watch their differences on the heavy bag practice.

I am talking about in overall performance in boxing, I agree that Manny is better than Floyld but that would be my bias opinion because I am a fan.
if we haven't seen Manny knock out an opponent lately, most probably we will see it soon when these two will fight.

I never argued about who was the better boxer. I was talking about who would give Conor more problems in boxing. Comparing Floyd and Pacman's styles and by watching their heavy bag practice, I reckon Conor would not finish 6 rounds versus Pacman.

I agree. And if Conor does not have or has a minimum damage in the hands of Mayweather, it will be multiplied several times in the hands of Manny. If Conor had the gall to say his match with Mayweather was stopped prematurely and he was not really hurt and he can still go on, he definitely cannot say the same when he will fight Manny. It is either he will sleep on the canvas or he will become a punching bag all throughout the fight his nose might transfer to his forehead.

You crazy.  As much as everyone dislikes floyd he is by far a pound for pound better boxer than manny and it's not close.  I've never seen anyone who knew HOW to box better than floyd and you can legit say it might be a very long time before we see another like him.  Floyd can win in so many ways, he can go rounds without barely throwing punches and still win those rounds easily.  Conner never had a prayer with floyd.  Floyd dragged it out for the fans...either way manny will wreck conner it wont even be a good fight
Not dragging out for its fans but thats actually his boxing style.Hitting his opponent without getting being hit and im sure he didnt go on easy with Connor even he do know that he do have the advantage.
Floyd is undefeated because of his style.It might be frustrating to others yet it do involves running around but thats actually the main objective which is to make points until the round ends and win the fight.
@stomachgrowls if he would finish that fast then peoples tickets wont really be that worth.



He is a showman too.  If floyd wanted to knock conner out in the first he could've, it was a sparring match for him.  That is his style, he was a master at never getting hit.  Always loved watching him box although I dont care for him as a person.
