The topic is still hot in all over the social media platform, there is a possibility that it will happen but it is only small so we should not expect too much. Manny is now in the 40's but still he has will and power to fight in the boxing ring. He is now planning to retire so I think the rematch between Manny and Floyd is more feasible than the fight between Manny and McGregor. McGregor is recently comeback in the octagon and he is more suitable to it.

Anything is possible for Conor after that last win in UFC, and I must admit that I did not expect him to win in that express way.
I think that if he stay focused he can win against Pacquio but this is totally different game now.

pacquiao is still hot in the boxing arena as younger fighters are clamouring for a match. is it for the take home pay or they want to beat the legend or both? Pac can still draw a crowd but i guess it is high time to hang his gloves before it is too late. he is not getting any younger and he has nothing to prove anymore. he got his money and status, what's in it for him to fight these younger generation?

It will surely bring a lot of money but I would not suggest that this fight is good for Manny, he is still active in boxing, I think this kind of fight is only good when he already retired in boxing like Mayweather.. people love entertainment but hopefully will choose those who are real boxers and has the title so his journey will continue as one of the oldest boxer in the world that are still active and winning.

Time and time again, Manny Pacquiao has proven and answered all the doubts that he can still fight despite his growing age. Even if Connor McGregor may be the younger player, the experience that Pacquiao has on the ring is unparalleled. Not to mention, his lightning fast speed and deadly technique/combinations can put McGregor to a really tight spot!

I have to say if the fight supposedly happens, McGregor is the one with the HEAVY disadvantage since he is fighting one of boxing's legend on the ring. But with these kinds of fights nowadays, everything revolves around money!
Majority knows about the gap between the two and also you should mention about the stamina between the two and with that alone you can already saw the difference.
If this fight would push through then theres no other thing or reason which is to make money purely, talking about pure essence of sport? No it not.

Recently Khabib do refuse to fight or have rematch with Conor, so probably this fight would possibly happen

If the fight between McGregor and Manny Pacquiao will eventually happens then probably I will bet on Manny Pacquiao in any terms especially when the fight is through boxing because we all know that the punch of Manny Pacquiao was solid as rock and many boxers are already know it, but when it comes to octagon I will still go to Manny Pacquiao because there are some news that they say he also know some martial arts so probably I will go to bet on Manny Pacquiao, but they are both strong McGregor and Pacquiao.

McGregor has no chance to win against Mayweather but Manny Pacquiao does, so if we are talking of a rematch, let's give it to the Pacquaio vs Mayweather 2. We know that when McGregor fight a popular boxer, he is only for the money and good thing he didn't suffer much during this fight with Mayweather but with Manny I am not sure he'll get the same treatment like Mayweather did. 
I would love to watch Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather fighting for the second time rather than any other exhibition fights, there is nothing wrong in competing against boxing veterans but we all know that they really know how to school someone who is stepping into the art of boxing for the first time in a professional bout. Conor McGregor has the accuracy and punching power and could knock any fighter out but these legendary boxers are masters at evading the punches and hence if Conor McGregor wants to fight another boxer he better look for someone else rather than going against veterans who mastered the art.

Both of them deserve to win against Floyd Mayweather. And if they will ever win, the crowd would be satisfied.

Yeah, that's what I think also. It's impossible for Manny Pacman Pacquiao to fight McGregor in the hexagon since Pacman will surely lose. So definitely it will be a boxing match and we all know that Pacman has a lot of experiences on punches unlike in MMA where you throw punches with just force. Boxing is very unique and it requires a lot of strength physically and mentally so good luck to McGregor if he'll try to challenge PacMan.
But who knows right? Maybe it could be possible, I think people would love to watch that since McGregor is a MMA fighter, we all know how MMA fighter recklessly punching and kicking their opponent, where in boxing most of the time they are using their shoulder and hand strength together with their feet but without kicking and it is needed to have a good timing and strategy where Pacman is more good at that. But again who knows ? It will be a good fight after all.

I don't think this even will happen...I mean McGregor is a great boxer yes , but Manny is a beast in box so I doubt it can fight more than 6 rounds with him. Let's not forget that Floyd played with McGregor in the ring and he just wanted to give a good show to the people instead of K.O. him in first rounds... .

If somehow this even comes alive , it will be a huge milestone for McGregor as he boxed 2 of the greatest boxers of all time.

Please please PLEASE KO him within the first 30 seconds, everybody wants to see McGregor get humbled once and for all.

Please no, 30 seconds is too short for the expensive ticket or the PPV.


But the whole event wont last 30 seconds Smiley You sure will have an opportunity to watch other boxing matches in the card.
Hahaha.. 30 seconds for an expensive ticket. That's really annoying but possible if a clear punch coming from Pacquiao hits McGregor as even tough boxing stars can witnessed how hard Manny's clear punch. It can finished the fight in a just under a minute so of you're going to watch it out hope that McGregor able to keep away from Pacquiao's deadly  punch.
People used to buy tickets to be entertained on a MMA or boxing fight. No one will like this kind of event if they finish it really fast. Sometimes, big events are scripted and the match has already results even it's not finished yet. So, they can make the fight longer since even they lose the fight, they'll still earn huge money. That's how mafia works...  Cheesy

I don't i will least 30 seconds, i mean, Conor isn't ready for a full 12 rounds fight, as we see in the past box fight, but maybe he can hold for at least 5 rounds.

I will go with Pacquiao on that one. Boxing isn't for Conor, he just doesn't know what to do when the opponent gives his back.

The question is, will the undercard are fights between UFC fighters and the boxers too?
This isn't a boxing title event although Conor McGregor want one, so if there's an undercard, I don't think it would be also exciting like the main match.

Recently I read an article in IB Times, which claimed that a potential fight between Conor McGregor and Manny Pacquiao may generate revenues in excess of $250 million. This is going to be a windfall for Manny, but I am not sure whether Conor will be interested. Because he is having plenty of options right now. I heard that a number of big names are interested in fighting against him (one name that comes to my mind right now is that of Terence Crawford).
It was posted earlier and I can't find the article on the ibtimes. Conor is a known name and Pacquiao of course as well. $250,000,000 is very likely to make from this fight that they'll do.

Here's the article:

These article writers are really pushing this fight to happen. Yes, it will generate a lot of revenue because Pacquiao and McGregor is a big names in boxing and mma.
Here's another article from IBtimes showing a desperate interest for the fight to happen.
  https://www.ibtimes.com/floyd-mayweather-fights-show-conor-mcgregor-can-beat-manny-pacquiao-2914464?amp=1

The article said McGregor stands a chance against Pacquiao base on the number of landed punch during their match against Floyd.

This is just simply a sign of hate for Mayweather to tell about that defeating possibility of Conor to Pacquiao? I dont see a chance.

As said above, im not saying that i underestimate but its clear on who do have the advantage on here.When it comes to the contest on
landing punches? Does Pacquiaos speed is a joke?

Maybe Conor should start seeing Manny's fight highlights so he will haven an idea what he would get comes the fight night.
here's one of the many I found in youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXGmYySBcVE

Anybody paying for the PPV will quickly realize that these events are just fiascos, they shouldn't be promoted and people shouldn't waste their money on them.

There is no competition here. If it goes longer than 2 rounds, that's because Pacman simply let him survive for slightly longer to give the fans more action...

I don't know about you, but I dont watch boxing to see one guy let the other one survive for as long as possible.

People have different opinion on this fight, some people would say it's a waste of time but the fact that these fight could give them 100 million dollars, that says a lot that a lot of fans want to make it happen, although in the end they might just regret their actions.

for me, since this is Manny, I would be willing to pa for the PPV

I don't buy that one, that article was only made for fans who does not follow Pacman really well.
Well, we cannot just say Conor does not have a chance, of course he has but a very slim chance, unless he use his kick boxing ability in the ring which would only happen if he is stupid enough that want to get disqualified.

maybe his chance is only 5%?
