    Floyd was supposed to do an exhibition in China, but the people he was working with said that he suddenly changed gears and decided to focus on the Pacquiao rematch.

    Pacquiao himself confirmed talks.

    I think this is why neither Mikey nor Danny have announced a fight. Both are/were frontrunners for Pacquiao.

    Floyd swore up and down that he was never going to give Pacquiao a rematch, so I guess he's having money problems. That or he keeps using Pacquiao's name to stay relevant.

    Danny didn't announce the fight, because he's already scheduled to fight Spence in January.

    I think Manny is greater, but Floyd wins this one with his style most times. But right now he has not been active. That could be a tough fight for him.

    I can see it money wise but how many times have we heard this?maybe Floyd and Haymon have run out of potential stumbling blocks.

    Oh yes though I would have thought that, that's almost certain to be off now in light of Spence's accident.

    Let's see how Floyd does without illegal IV fluids.

    Does it make mega money these days? A lot of people got their fingers burned last time. Is there enough interest to provide the minimum guarantees each fighter would want?

    Don't really fancy watching Mayweather do the 100 metre sprint backwards again thanks.

    Uh, I would venture to guess AT LEAST 2 million PPVs.

    The IV fluids were to mask his ped usage, not improve his performance.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Void said he is retired for good. Then makes a comeback. Stay retired no one wants to see your boring fight anymore.

    The rip off of the century x 2?

    Them being older and more desperate might make it a better fight but it’s still a hard pass for me.
