have lost momentum, both are old and have no title belts.
The first match of the fight was actually a bit too late because they were no longer young and were not at the peak of their performance.
especially now that they are both old and don't have championship belts.
just entertainment and interesting spectacle

I'm not sure where have you been in the last years or so, but you know that both of them have retired right? So obviously there will be no belts for them and for this fight as this is a exhibition fights.

Quote
An exhibition fight is a sports match which is not part of a competition but instead serves the function of demonstrating the skills of the participants.[1] In boxing, an exhibition fight normally consists of three to eight rounds. The participants generally wear larger gloves to minimize punch harm or impact on the combatants, headgear, and non-boxing related clothing. Exhibition fights involve opponents exhibiting their skills while usually being friendly and respectful.[2]

So yes, this is just for entertainment purposes, but still they have a huge fan based so for sure this is going to be a hit and might even compete for those boxing PPV fights for next year.

But this still create a hype somehow.

By the names of these two legends,it's almost instant that people will watch their fight. The exhibition era has already born, popular celebrities in sports have an opportunity after their pro to still make money, and this is it for Pacman and Mayweather.

As to the cut, I think this deserves a 50/50, however if Mayweather would insist that he'll get the bigger share, it's still fine with 60/40 as long as Manny is not greedy. Besides, it's a sure thing that they'll make a lot of money on this "exhibition fight".

And Floyd is relling  for a John Gotti Jr rematch, the fight ended in controversy and so it created a hype so this fight is scheduled February if I'm not mistaken.
Just like Pacquiao, he also had an scheduled fight with Buakaw, so both of them needs to finish their fight with a win, who knows we will see this fight by the 2nd half of this year, or could be earlier. Pacman would not release a statement if he wasn't sure with it, it's not good for his reputation though, so let's believe that what he said had some truth and we will witness this anticipated fight.

i believe he has the go signal to give such announcement. i don't think he will just prank his boxing fans for something that has no chance of happening in the near future. if this exhibition fight is marketed right, they can get a huge amount of money from this. maybe cashing out from most recent professional boxing bouts. they have their own loyal followers up until now, so there are a lot of them still waiting to see both inside the ring one more time. even if there's no belt on the line.

don't underestimate their influence among boxing fans. even if there's no belt and just an exhibition fight, am sure a lot will pay for the tickets just to see them both inside the ring. but we don't know their internal arrangements here. i hope both will fight toe-to-toe and not running inside round after round. but knowing mayweather, he will not ruin his record and be technical again. and hopefully, the proceeds will be given to something important and not just pocketing all the money here.

I created a thread similar to this discussion before https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62932569

But all of it still became a rumor. But since Pacquiao release a statement regarding on their possible match up which can be found on this article https://www.rappler.com/sports/boxing/pacquiao-announces-exhibition-boxing-match-floyd-mayweather-2024/

We can say that this rumored fight have a chance to happen.

But there's no confirmation on the side of Mayweather yet since maybe they are negotiating the price. But since tis rumored now came from Pacquiao I guess by this year we can see the fight between Pacquiao vs Mayweather will happen this year.

The last thing I knew regarding Pacman, he seemed to want to retire after running for office as a political figure, but I didn't really follow him until now. It turns out he returned to the ring and made a debut that hasn't entertained us for a long time. Yes, as many people have said, this fight is for no other reason than to raise more money because it is clear that all the spectators will be very interested, even though behind the scenes there may be an agreement. Pacman on the field makes me nostalgic so if a fight happens I will happily watch it.

He did one exhibition fight against a South Korean Youtube influencer, so he didn't retire for good, he still loves boxing and he has involved himself with his MP company that promotes mostly Filipino boxers and give them the chance to win belts.

I think this is possible, they could have been talking about this fight for a long time now, But first Manny will have to win against Buakaw, I open a thread about it.

There's no assurance that it could become the biggest entertainment fight of the year but I bet many will watch this. Manny Pacquiao has so many fans, especially in his own country, the Philippines. I will definitely support Manny here and I want to see if he still have those big punches that could shake Mayweather.
The upset here is if Mayweather plays the same way as he did against him. I know it's just for an exhibition match but it's not fun to see a boxer who just keeps on dodging and not even trying to box. I mean, we have seen Mike Tyson so upset with how Mayweather performs and many Filipinos also don't like what happened back then. There's not much action because of the clinch and dodge strategy. I love it more when Manny is up against front fighters who will test whose chin is stronger.
Anyway, I hope this will be a successful one. Both are big names in the industry but I am still hoping for some good action.

I knew that they were cooking something. Just recently I read some articles regarding this fight (Pacman vs Mayweather II), so I was optimistic that it could happen anytime soon, and since we just entered 2024, this could be possible this year.

Maybe some would think that they need more time to prepare. That's not the case actually since this is just an exhibition fight, there's no bearing on their professional record, and even if Mayweather were to loss this fight, he would remain undefeated per his prof record.

This fight is already due, but sadly both retired before this fight will happen. Anyway, it's still good though, at least we will see some serious exhibition fight between two legends, and it's sure worth to pay for, as long as Mayweather would not just run in the entire fight.

Just recently reported that Pacman announce his fight with Mayweather this year.

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.
Professional sports are increasingly turning into a soap opera: former champions either leave the big sport, then return again for a portion of money exhibition fights similar to show business. The best years of these guys are already behind them and they have to make money as best they can, because the hype around them thanks to their past achievements still persists.

There was a lot of hype around their last fight, but that fight was very far from the best that happened on the world boxing stage. This fight will probably be the same - a lot of noise, but a boring and uninteresting fight. At a time when Pacquiao could demonstrate the highest level of boxing, Mayweather avoided it in every possible way. Mayweather will win again, you'll see.

I saw it in social media but I haven't look at it, and the subject says that Manny is teasing Floyd for a exhibition matches.

But we have Manny fighting Buakaw first this year and I'm not familiar if Floyd will have another exhibitions match, although it could be a rematch with Gotti this February? So let's see, maybe at the end of the 2024, this two is going to face each other in Japan for the biggest exhibition fights ever.

And obviously, it's a money fight for this two, they can still milk it out even if both of them have retired.

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

Or this can be one of the biggest upsets for the year of 2024. Here is why I think that - these two are already old. Of course they are still better than majority of boxers of their weight class, but if they come to ring today, they wont be the same boxers they used to be. They wont be able to show 100% of what they are capable of. They are no longer in peak form. People will watch their fight only to watch their favorite boxer fight again, but not to find out who is better.

2024 you say.?  Smiley

I was supposed to say about having fight with Buakaw but its been clarified that this fight would happen first before Mayweather 2. I dont know about this possibility of
Mayweather on fighting against Pacquiao on second time around on which we've seen that Mayweather doesnt have that interested on having a round 2 but it
seems that there's a huge money sharing on this one to make this happen again.

Exhibition fights are really that indeed now their way of making money since they have retired. So i dont really expect that much when it comes to fight performances
but still an interesting fight for us to look upon though.
