People already see the result of the fight between Mayweather and McGregor. They saw McGregor performed in the ring. No chance at all at the boxing world. Will they pay tickets for the kind of fight he showed? No at Boxing but Yes at Octagon.
of course there is a chance mate because McGregor has a powerful Punch as he is a true Fighter and it is proven,the problem is will His Punch Hit His opponent?specially Boxers who is very accurate in their Movements?
Promoters are not that dumb to organize a fight that will not catch people's attention. This fight, even if Pacquaio agreed will not gain good revenue and I'm sure of that.
but this may be a promoters strategy to see what is the peoples Pulse about this match ,if they gain more publicity and positive reactions they will push this because all of them is for Money.
McGregor should fight next to a big name in MMA while Pacquiao should face a pure boxer. Pacquaio is nearly on retirement so every match should be notable one and important.
but i agree on this,they are both Good fighter but in their own Fields ,though they are Both up in the ring yet they have different skills in fighting.

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

I think it's all kind of a joke really.  Conner excels at MMA, there are Olympic and gold glove boxers that never get a shot at people like floyd and manny.  Conner is not a world class boxer!  Why does anyone think he can beat someone lile floyd or manny?  I will bet hard on manny no matter the odds if this fight goes down

No one thinks he can beat Manny but the level of fun when these two will fight in the ring will be extra ordinary.

Now that, Mcgregor is back by beating his opponent in less than a minute, his name will be hype again and this fight if it happens, it surely gonna be more than $100 million fight. what a pay check for this kind of entertainment.

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?

they are running out of boxers? why MMA and boxing world are now in connivance to get huge payouts? pacquiao should fight with real boxers and with capability to fight him toe-to-toe. not some sort of exhibition in the ring. for the sake of boxing world and MMA fans, i hope this one will not ever happen. we know that McGregor is a boxer also, but they should not really think of this match. other young boxers are waiting for pac...

It's highly possible for us to see a Conor McGregor fight since we saw a McGregor vs Mayweather fight in a boxing ring. Honestly, I thought Gregor will use his feet to fight against Mayweather that time. But now, I saw in soc media that there were been talks about Pacquiao and McGregor fight. And look at Manny Pacquiao facebook page, he congratulate McGregor on his win against the cowboy.

I agree that if this fight pushes through, this is all about the money and will not do good on boxing. On the other hand, i also want to see how Manny would punish McGregor here so he would realize that boxing and UFC is two different sports.
I wanted the same thing.I would like to see a very solid or hard punch that would make him realize that this isnt UFC.  Grin
When it comes to stamina then theres no doubt that Pacquiao would have the edge on any way.If this fight do happen
then it would really matters most on the money that would be generated not totally an entertaining fight.How they
do consider on mixing up a UFC fighter and a true Boxer? We know who do have the edge but well money can make all
things possible.

I have read the majority opinion regarding this match on social media and it seems that most of them are going for Manny. It's an obvious mismatch for an UFC fighter to fight against a living legend and still a strong pound for pound boxer with a lot of belts from different divisions.

Whatver reason Conor had for doing this kind of match, he did this for his own sake and gain. We understand that boxing isn't for him but if this is what he wants and if Manny allows him to fight him, we'll see how a teacher will teach a kid.

But if the other way around, like the rule, is an MMA rule then it will be a different story because we all know Connor is very good in MMA combat fighting and Manny only knows boxing, but I don't think Manny will agree to fight in an MMA rules, he rather not go for the match.
Well, that's for sure. MMA is way different from boxing but he's the one that's requesting for this match so don't expect that Manny is the one to adjust for this fight and he's an intelligent fighter that will not do this if this is just for PPV sake.

The transition is a risk for him but it's an obvious boxing fight and Conor is known for that just like what he did and asked for a match with Floyd. And the manager of Manny is already appeared to say that it should be a boxing match.

Actually I don't want to see a fight like these anymore if you would look at the recent fight between Mayweather and McGregor it doesn't end well with McGregor because his fighting technique is limited when he entered a boxing match, but if it would be a freestyle match Conor would surely win against Mayweather,

Well this can sure accumulate many viewers and can create a lot of money but I think Manny Pacquiao would not going to fight against McGregor I think Manny is pretty well aware of how much is the difference between boxing and mixed martial arts and just like the previews McGregor and Mayweather fight, it is pretty unfair for the fighter to limit his movement into his well-known fighting style.

Well, to be honest that fight of McGregor was the result of being hyped fight because there are people who likes to see them fight. People that are ready to drop some huge cash for a fight that just going to happen. But this time a fight between Pacman and McGregor might do come true if there is someone ready to drop some big cash for a bout between them to happen.

I don't think that Pacquiao will be interested in this match too. He'd rather face a fellow boxer to retain his reputation than a MMA fighter which is popular but... I don't know but if this will happen, it will depend if it will happen on the Boxing Ring or on the Octagon Cheesy.
If Conor McGregor wants to fight Manny Pacquiao i bet that Manny Pacquiao will take the fight in a heart beat because he knows that it will be a huge payday in his life and it will be an easy fight as he is superior in his boxing skills.
 
McGregor can kick already unlike his last matches that he mostly uses his fists. If this will happen, I think McGregor must learn how to grapple because Khabib is very expert at grappling and it is his specialty. He must learn how to counter it in order to defeat him.
It is not that easy to learn grappling in a short period of time and that too against a life long grappler like Khabib. There are certain athletes who masters a certain martial art technique that no one has ever seen before and Khabib is such fighter who revolutionized ground game to a new level and if you want to fight him there is no way you are going to grapple against him, avoid the ground game and circle around him. The mistake Conor did in the fight against Khabib was that Conor was willing to grapple with him and he understood it is an impossible task now, he could have escaped the first ground attempt but instead of moving away Conor was grappling.

This will be a boring to watch and we already know who will win obviously. Manny Pacquaio will kick Conor McGregor's ass. I'd rather to throw my money to watch these following matches:
I think , Manny will accept this challenge, I am one of his fan and I think he already think that McGregor will be a good fight for him, since it will be a unique because McGregor didnt start as a boxer but is now pursuing his career in boxing and creating a name with it, he is also one of the well-known martial artist with a great career in his field, it will be the fight of the year, but I will more prefer PAC vs Mayweather again ! this one will be the talk of the world.
Same with how McGregor loses with Maywether as he don't have any good conditioning practices unlike Pacquiao who's been inside this sports
and became a well known legend. If Pacquiao accept this challenge it will all about publicity and to reached more fans, all can be done if the
price is right for both fightegrs.

This will be a boring to watch and we already know who will win obviously. Manny Pacquaio will kick Conor McGregor's ass. I'd rather to throw my money to watch these following matches:
Conor McGregor vs Usman
Conor McGregor vs Khabib 2
These are similar fights for Conor McGregor and there is no way he is going to win a fight against world class wrestlers who maul other world class wrestlers and if i have to assume that Conor will have an opportunity against these two monsters then i have to be brain dead.

Conor McGregor vs Masdival
Conor McGregor vs Nate Diaz 3
These are the two fights we will probably see as Nate Diaz trilogy will be a huge pay day fight and then he might go and face Masvidal for the BMF title and he can make millions if he take those fights rather than taking risk fighting monsters who are really good on the ground.

I am happy to see the respect that is shown by both the fighters after the fight.

Conor McGregor vs Masdival
This is the next match that is for me most likely to happen. They are good match and their last fight are both wins. I will wait for this Cheesy

Conor McGregor vs Khabib 2
McGregor can kick already unlike his last matches that he mostly uses his fists. If this will happen, I think McGregor must learn how to grapple because Khabib is very expert at grappling and it is his specialty. He must learn how to counter it in order to defeat him.

after winning over Donald Cerrone here?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/conor-mcgregor-vs-donald-cerrone-jan-2020-discussion-5205428

do you think that those Line ups will turn to another ways?



I'm for Khabib2 this march should happen and Connor should redeem himself on this fight, there is no other way he can redeem himself but a fight with Khabib, he was beaten in submission not by decision and because of this he must push this fight so he can get even, I'm pretty sure that this fight is going to happen.
thats too early mate,remember that McGregor is a killer and can beat opponent in a round 1 so dont be over confident specially now that he regain hes momentum after winning over Cerrone.

That would be an easy win for Manny if the fight will be in boxing rules or easy win for Connor if that would be in the octagon. Both fighters have different fighting styles and stamina because of their sports. I think this match will be just for money, and the results will be too predictable.

Personally, I'm not a fan of this kind of fight, this is just for money, but the fight will be boring to watch because the results are pretty easy to predict.

You right this match is just for money and entertainment
But whatyou mean about easy to predict, Do you think that if the fighter who gets the biggest bets and money libe has to lose?
No one knows how would a match work when two different 'legends' from different fields , fight each other. There would be biases such that one would have advantages over the other one if conditions of that one side would be meet. If this fight would be possible, we would already have assumptions of what would happen since such concept have already happened between Connor and Floyd. I doubt that the one who would have bigger bets would end up losing.
