Unless Mayweather announces this to the public and will start building hype, I will remove the possibility that this might not be pushed.

It's unusual for me to see Mayweather just participate in an exhibition match without any thoughts. Reading also the article, it's clear that Pacquiao's side seems the only one aggressive in the exhibition match. No statements were brought up on the Mayweather side.

But like anyone else, I hope this will happen for real, and not when Pacman and Mayweather are now in their 50s lol.

The two of them just held a press conference in Japan

*BREAKING* PACQUIAO vs MAYWEATHER 2 IS ON! OFFICIAL PRESS CONFERENCE and TRASH TALK ~ANNOUNCEMENT!~
They are both promoting the fight and agreed to do it not only is Pacquiao doing it, but this press conference shows the character of both fighters, Floyd keeps insisting that he is the best while Pacquiao is all thankful for the opportunity, I hope Manny shut down Floyd so he can stop bragging how great he is.

This is a great opportunity for both fighters to make money in their retirement, people are still interested to see both fighters although they aged they still have the same form as when they are still active.

Where we see Floyd Mayweather, there is always big money. Google say that for their first fight, Floyd has earned around $300 millions. Since then his appetites only grew. Pacquiao will also wants to get a large paycheck. How much Floyd going to ask now? Half a billion? From business concern, to be able to pay fighters their hundreds of millions, plus spend on promotion, those who are going to organize this even would have to set high ticket and PPV prices if they dont want to go bankrupt after this event. Will people be ready to pay, for example $100, for an exhibition fight of two retired boxers?

Floyd the pretty boy Mayweather is very popular in many countries around the world and also Manny Pacman Pacquiao the only 8 division champ. So if this gonna happen then we see a good fight as this is an rematch and we all know what happens last time they fight   and that is a good fight even though Manny Pacquiao loss that fight but at least he gave his very best to that fight and maybe. This upcoming rematch will  hattle If who is  the best.

This could be one of the biggest match for this year and that's a big announcement already.
Though there's a lot of speculation already so better not to expect that much especially with Mayweather as he wants to protect his record even if its an exhibition match. Another big money machine for both boxer, and let's just see if they will both agree for the terms and i'd hope that Manny will won this time so they can have the final rematch in 2025. Cheesy
Every match that Pacquiao is in is going to be considered as massive fight (well except his most recent one lol) which goes to show just how big his impact and influence is in the boxing industry. The same could be said for Mayweather since they are formidable fighters with a lot of belts under their waists at this point.

Honestly I don't care much for how "genuine" this fight will be cause there had been speculations in the past about Mayweather fixing his fights to keep his clean record through and through. I really just wanna see these two people duke it out once again in the ring for old time's sake. Plus I know for sure Pacquiao's got a bone to pick with Mayweather now that he know he's not gonna win for shit if he couldn't knock him out (Mayweather has never been knocked down and according to Marquez, a previous opponent and a close friend of Pacquiao's, he wouldn't win against his fight with Mayweather if he couldn't knock him out, which then proves to be true). So yeah, Mayweather can play along the book as he likes, but Pacquiao's definitely gonna make the Pretty Boy bleed.

Does Floyd really get that much money or does he lie? I mean, $300 million is a huge amount per fight, it's a one fight after all that finishes in minutes and I don't really understand what kind of income he should generate to receive $300 million per fight? Movies don't generate that much amount of money and as far as I know and can tell, Football is the most popular sport by views.

Yes, he really got those $300 millions or even more. Payment for performance, plus sponsors, plus I think he got some % of PPV sales. While football players earn millions for one season and they are paid in hundred thousands per week, Mayweather managed to earn $9 millions for 2:20min fight against Tenshin Nasukawa. That is about $65k per second. Boxing is always about big payments. That was an exhibition fight against Japanese kickboxer. Now he is about to face one of the best boxers, and for that fight he is going to ask for as much as possible. That is why I am worried about how much tickets or translation going to cost. If they pay him or both of them so much, how much they gonna charge viewers to end with a profit in the end.

Not sure about that $300 million per fight, but that could be a series of fights. If I'm not mistaken, Canelo signs a $300 million deal before, 11 fights and that is the biggest contract that we have seen so far, surpassing Floyd.

But I think Floyd says that he is still the riches boxer ever, so maybe per exhibition fight a cool $10 million dollar each plus maybe PPV and live gate sales and the him getting the lion share of that money in his every fight.
Doesnt matter on what would be the actual numbers but as long they do earn millions out of these fights then this is something that they cant really be able to resist to arrange up some fights.
Results of this exhibition fights arent official then for sure Floyd wont really be mattering much or be bothered if ever Pacquiao would whopped his ass on this upcoming exhibition.  Cheesy
We are now seeing that they are arranging already the possible fights that are in line for this year on which it is really that something interesting for this year 2024.
Not to mention about those fights of Inoue too + this exhibition fights with MP vs Mayweather and Buakaw then this is really that an interesting year
exempt also into those known big fights too.

So when this fight was announced I really became confused but then, I've come to understand that this could be the last fight of this year. With all of the possible match up that Floyd and Pacquiao will have for this year, they are saving the best for last and that's how it is going to be.

But I think Floyd says that he is still the riches boxer ever, so maybe per exhibition fight a cool $10 million dollar each plus maybe PPV and live gate sales and the him getting the lion share of that money in his every fight.
That is for sure, he can boast with that because he literally has the money and each exhibition fight that he'll have will cost the organizers a lot of money and it's also going to depend on him whether he's going to agree accepting that talent fee that he's having. As long as there will be organizers that are interested to take him for an exhibition match, it will also make them a lot of money because he's still a marketable and undefeated champion and many fans would like to see him box again.

Whilst for Pacquiao, it's the same. He's the people's champ and I think that there are more fans than Floyd's but it doesn't matter. Both are in demand and great fighters and we all want to see them beat each other asses and there will be one winner again. So, they do this for so many times and I don't think people will get tired watching them.

He didn't lie, in his fight with Pacman, he really get a huge amount of money, it's $240 million according to record, but there might be some income that wasn't tallied or reported yet so he is expected to get $300 million.

Quote
The boxers have to be pleased as well, with Pacquiao clearing $125 million for the fight and Mayweather raking in a whopping $240 million. It's the primary reason why it's hard to believe the two won't face off in a rematch, especially since they can market the second fight as the true measuring stick between the two fighters, assuming Pacquiao is back to full strength.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2492016-mayweather-vs-pacquiao-reportedly-generated-600-million-in-revenue

That's why this rematch is likely to happen as for sure they'll make at least $100 million individually or combined.

I have a bad feeling about this and I think that Floyd is about to make a huge mistake by Floyd. He might get his first loss of his career. Considering his age, his reflexes are not as they used to be when he was younger. During his time, what separated him from the rest was his defensive, reflexes, boxing IQ, and power. On the other hand, I didn't like that Manny announced the fight by himself. I am waiting for Floyd own announcement on this.
Floyd Mayweather is currently retired as a professional boxer with the record of 50 win 0 lose. It's just an exhibition match and it won't affect his 50:0 record. He can win and lose as much as he wants, it doesn't count, it won't affect his numbers anymore.

It seems that Pacquiao is loaded with matches this 2024. Looking at his perspective, this is literally a prosperous new year for him. Whilst for both of them, there is nothing to prove anymore on their ends. This is an exhibition and if Pacquiao wins on this match, Floyd will just say it is fine and it is an exhibition but will he allow that to happen since he is undefeated and I think that even with this type of match, he is serious about it. IMHO, both are winners when these matches comes because they will baghold sums of money in here as they are still in demand and they have global fans that are willing to watch and wait for this match. I want to see Pacquiao win even for this exhibition because for sure that he is too eager to beat Floyd even with just honor that is on stake and about the share, I guess it is still Floyd that has a larger cut for the sales.

The Buakaw fight is just coming soon and here Pacquiao is talking about the Mayweather fight, and so is Mayweather the Gotti fight is not yet happening and now he is booked to fight Pacquiao, people will be more interested in this fight than any exhibition fight that happens in the past, and that includes all the Paul brother fights.
In the past when a boxer retires he will just manage boxers or set up a gym so he can continue to practice his boxing skills, but not anymore now, if you're a popular champion who just retired you can still make money from doing exhibition matches.

Maybe at early this year they already have negotiation about this match up and they have good insights that Mayweather would agree since Pacquiao already said that match will going to happen. For sure he will not release that statement if there's no discussion happened for both camp so this is really more exciting since many people want this match up to happen since they have unfinished business that need to settle since their fans keep debating on who is more stronger than them. Pacquiao fans is not done yet with certain discussion even if Pacquiao lose on their first meet up since they are not been impressed for the result shown. But know maybe it can seal the long time discussion and both of them can prove that they are more better compare to what other fans say on both of them. For sure this will be one of the dream fight which every boxer fans to watch.

I think it will happen, there's too much money in the table that this two can't refused. Just a matter of timing and the availability of Manny and Floyd. Yes, even if this is just an exhibition match and not the rematch that we wanted, still many fans around the world is going to watch it.

Their communications could be open for all we know and they could have been talking already. I think the Buakaw could be a tune up fight for Manny, and with a good money and the offer and terms is so attractive that he accepted it easily. And then after this fight and if he wins, then we can say that it could be a guarantee that Floyd will be next for him maybe in the middle of the year.

As long as the money is good I think Floyd will go for it. It must be reasonable though, and half a billion seems preposterous, it should be logical that him and Pacquaio can still earn a lot of money and then they preserved their health as this is a Floyd mantra, "health comes first".

I also doubt that it will $100 will be the PPV price, again, it should be reasonable, we have seen fights this year around $70++ and I think they will stick to this kind of numbers. But let's see, both have separate fight first to do this year.

Somehow I think their exhibition fight will end with a draw. Like it has happened with Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr. exhibition fight.

I doubt it would as we know Mayweather likes to keep his records clean because that is his legacy. I'm not a fan of Mayweather fight as you will see a lot of hugging and running, nothing that explosive. I'm sure they'll earn a lot from this fight again as many people would like to see a rematch. Both of the are already retired and not in their peak, but it would be great if even if it's an exhibit match to see Pacquiao getting his revenge on Mayweather. I knew their rematch would come soon and many people would like to see these two legends clash.

They made up making the same sales as they did when they first met, these two are still active in doing exhibitions, and people will watch it out of curiosity out of those boxers who retired these two fighters proved that they are not yet done with boxing.

I'm sure people will watch this because these two boxers are still as popular as they are still relevant in fact if they want they can make a comeback I'm rooting for Pacquiao to beat Mayweather if not for those broken arms he could have beaten Mayweather, anyway this is an exhibition fight and no title is at stake, so they are here just to enjoy and at the same time make money not every fighter can do this, make money while retire.

Somehow I think their exhibition fight will end with a draw. Like it has happened with Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr. exhibition fight. Even though that fight has good PPV sales, boxers did not show what everyone was expecting from them. We expected KO from Tyson, speed from Jones, but we got clinch from Jones and lots of slow overhands from Tyson. The whole fight did not have that spirit of a competition. Just two former great boxers in the ring. They wanted to win, but were too much cautious not to get hurt.

I believe, this is the biggest exhibition match and could potentially break another PPV record.

I don't think that this exhibition fight if ever pushed through will break PPV record. This fight will not be competitive as this will be an exhibition match and the rounds will be limited so how can boxing fans enjoy this show?

Also, I doubt if Mayweather will take the bait as he always protects that zero in his record even though if he just plays in exhibition fights.

I'm not a fan of exhibition fights in boxing and to be honest, I didn't watch Pacquaio fight that Korean martial arts fighter.

This is bound to happen because both fighters show no sign of slowing down, Mayweather has been busy doing a lot of exhibitions and Manny Pacquiao follows, and why not It is easy money for both legendary fighters, they are making money without too much pressure because there's no title at stake and it will not reflect on their respective records.


They really should do this and since exhibition matches are popular nowadays, they will be given huge payment here and they can make a huge amount of money because they were the most favorite rivals in their era and their fight was close but didn't go well for Pacquiao as he had suffered injuries in his shoulder that time. Now is the right time to prove it but since this is just an exhibition fight, they only use it and take advantage of current situations where they can really promote themselves and make huge profit out of it.

For the information of everyone, this is just an exhibition fight, and I think it will be after his fight with Buakaw which will happen in April 2020.

I believe, this is the biggest exhibition match and could potentially break another PPV record.


It's going to break a record that's for sure, these two legendaries have solid followers, and even if there are no titles at stake and it's an exhibition match they have unfinished business, on their first fight although Pacquiao did not make an excuse, his right hand was broken that limited his movement against Mayweather now Manny has a chance to get it even.
Both fighters are still in top shape I hope both legends will get past their respective opponents before their coming fight and nothing will stop that exhibition fight from happening.
