Million dollar fight once again. Definitely, such money will be going to his bag of million once again. Anyway, I am not sure with this anticipated match either, as McGregor's attitude seems changed recently, so not yet sure if he will took crowd's desire. I want to reiterate "if this isn't enough for him". He got enough money though, totally enough to spend with his life time even though he doesn't have to work anymore. He's just fighting, to satisfy audience/boxing fans, which I do believe. And his recent fight, he won, which fuels him to step up in the ring though his body can't keep to what he was before.
Yes it could be a million dollar! Since many people are wanting it very bad , Mcgregor came up in the different path, but I rather bet that a rematch of Pac and Mayweather will be the fight of the decade and many people will bet kn each side and it could be a billion bet as well. I want that rematch so bad as well, I hope they could make it possible.

Manny always generate huge revenue with each of his match and if this isn't enough for him, he could fight again for the very "last" time with another known boxer or someone like Conor. When we say "last" time, he mentioned it before that he's about to retire.
But then, we keep on saying matches after matches and rumors after rumors of fight for him so I guess I will not believe anymore if he ever says that he's going to retire.
I am not sure with other fights but this fight is going to be a huge paycheck for Manny with surely give him at least $100 million.
The last big fight of Manny where he gets $100 million + was only against Mayweather.

Take a look.

A fight against Conor McGregor could generate $250 million and be Manny Pacquiao's retirement party, according to an expert

Why would Manny pass on this when he can retire getting at least $100 million.

Again, Manny isn't fighting for the money,  Manny Already has it.
Then why didn't he retired already in boxing?
Manny has a lot of money but he still has the opportunity to make money, and we know his opportunity now very short due to his age, if Mayweather who are already rich and probably richer than Manny take exhibition fights for money, I don't think Manny would easily resist any offer.

Exactly, if it wasn't for money, Manny had already retired at his age now, he is fighting because he know he can still make money and he is still capable, that two things should go together. The world of boxing is a a world of entertainment, we don't have to listen on what people are saying because everyone has a price.

Well, if you look at the way Manny lives his life, you can see why he still needs to keep earning.

He basically considers all of his trainers and team to be like part of his family, and wants to keep supporting them with a healthy wage. I'm not sure how long he could keep that up for if he retired.

I already read that he spends like $500 a week on car washes, so you can only imagine the other expenses he has in his life if he spends $25k a year washing his cars!

Win or lose there's still money that will flow. Manny is one of those well known from this industry so promotions will do their best to sell his name
including this potential fights, if money will talk this will materialized we all know that. This is not a game for pride but the profitable side of this
venue. Boxing world have a huge fans and gamblers who are willing to gamble and support this fight.

I'd like to see McGregor face someone in the top 50 first (a solid up and comer), if he managed to beat them, then he should progress to a top 10 and if he somehow wins, then fight those at the top like Pacquiao and Crawford.
^ As I can see, McGregor's invitation is formal and respectful. There is a least chance Pacquaio's side would grab the invitation for that match. However, I would be more than happy if McGregor and Manny Pacquaio would have a rematch against Floyd Mayweather. Both of them deserve to win against Floyd Mayweather. And if they will ever win, the crowd would be satisfied.
Manny Pac isn't for people's satisfaction, he does boxing for the country and his countrymen. He did fight Mayweather not because the people wanted it but floyd's record is saying it but unfortunately for Manny Pac he didn't able to win it.

I think Manny Pacquaio is better than that. He wouldn't accept the match just because McGregor lost against Floyd Mayweather. But probably if the prize is right, Pacquaio wouldn't hesitate to do grab the match and go back to the ring with McGregor. Nevertheless, McGregor and Pacquaio are deserving champions and really the sports guys. Not Floy Mayweather.
Again, Manny isn't fighting for the money,  Manny Already has it. Not what I see from McGregor whom I think is just running Pacquiao for the money but dealing with boxing game isn't just like the UFC. I'm not really into McGregor's style of fighting although I love UFC than boxing, coz McGregor was not trained to endure for 12 rounds on which you can clearly saw him back on his fight with Floyd. However, If this fight will be in real life, even if Pacquiao is at 42 I'd still be looking forward him on winning against his opp.

Well Conor already open the door when he fought Floyd and it seems with his recent win against Cerrone, more opportunities are coming. Names like Manny Pacquaio and then Terence Crawford. We might be surprised if either of the fights are going to be made this 2020, specially when there is tons of money in the table for both sides here.

I don't even think McGregor could beat a top 50 boxing opponent, let alone two individuals that can claim to potential be the current pound for pound kings.

I'd like to see McGregor face someone in the top 50 first (a solid up and comer), if he managed to beat them, then he should progress to a top 10 and if he somehow wins, then fight those at the top like Pacquiao and Crawford.

Right now, it's just an obvious stomp, but McGregor's big mouth and UFC fame will probably land him the fights.

Having a cross-over fight between two different forms of sport is a good thing to watch. But, honestly, I don't see any point on having an MMA fighter fight a boxer, this two-sport is of different form and discipline. Mcgregor has the edge on MMA fight and the same goes for Pacquiao when it comes to boxing. Each has their edge over the other if they are just doing this for the show and to entertain people it will be surely make a hit, but it will not do them any good aside from money and publicity.

Indeed it is two different parts.
The same happened when McGregor faced Mayweather and we pretty saw the difference between an MMA fighter and a Boxer.
But, it is entertaining because they are the best of the best so it is all about the show, not about the fighting part.

fighting in the same discipline is already proven fun by the people usually watching it even in Vegas or in their home, but excitement comes along when two different sport clash together to deliver a whole new set of fun that people could watch.

This is just my theory but if this happens, it could drive the market to go crazy over watching this fight to happen. Gamblers will really prepare to choose the best between Pacquiao and McGregor. Thus, will drive huge demand to gambling platforms that will facilitate the gambling with regard to this game.

Speaking of Bob Arum:

Conor McGregor's Manager: Bob Arum is a Believer Now as Well

Quote
“[McGregor is] serious about boxing,” Attar told MMA Fighting. “He said it. That’s something that I can tell you, if he says something he has interest in, it’s likely going to happen.”

“We definitely monitor everything. We monitor not only fan engagement and interest from the public, but then you look at who’s out there talking what. Because it could be where we have a few different options to weigh and decide on. At the end of the day, I saw Floyd, I saw Manny and now Bob Arum, who at one point said, ‘It’s not a smart idea to crossover.’ He’s a believer now as well.

“It’s going to be busy, but we welcome that. We’re super excited for it. I think we’re all on the same page when it comes to ambition and goals, and so that’s really fun to see when your entire team is in sync. I think we all welcome that type of work load. We don’t look at it as pressure. We look at it as opportunity.”

This fight isnt sure yet since there are already talks about arrangement on Khabib fight but it wont be bad if this one
will happen.
If Conor McGregor has a smart team management they will look for a Nate Diaz trilogy rather than looking for a rematch against the undefeated Khabib Nurmagomedov and if he really wants to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov then that should be his last fight in MMA and then retire and go to the boxing ring and then try to win another belt in boxing as he said about his plan when he returned against Donald Cerrone and since there are many divisions in boxing i think he can win a belt in boxing but fighting against veteran boxing legends is a hard task.

If he will fight Manny Pacquiao he will just end up losing, but still, I am expecting a great fight between them.
If we pay for the ticket or the PPV, then it's just right to expect a great fight.

Not being bias, but Mcgregor will only look like a kid facing a legend.
This is going to happen, it's not being bias, it's telling the truth, I hope that Manny would knock him out so he will stop challenging boxing superstars.
well yeah,thats a good point since mayweather did not Knocked him down so if Manny do the Honor then maybe Conor will leave the chance of beatign a professional boxers and will focus on his Mix martial arts sport.
i don't want to be rude but his fighting skills is not for the 4 sided ring of boxing instead he is for octagon when he can use both hands and feet to depeat opponents
