    A fight I hoped wouldn't be announced, a rematch between two ATG taking place 11 years after their first meeting, with the two fighters now 48 and 49. In any case I think Mayweather will win on points this time too.

    Unless this is a stacked undercard, which means less money for the two headliner, this crap will not sell. There is just nothing compelling about it. Win or lose does nothing to either guy. Just a cash grab.

    Mayweather must be really broke this time…gets an exhibition fight with Tyson lined up, announces he’s coming out of retirement to fight professionally again, and then announces a rematch against Pacquiao just about a week later.

    It will sell out. Trust me. And people will pay a fortune for tickets too.

    Manny should be favored this time around no? He’s stayed busy against legit opposition in recent years, unlike Floyd.

    It's on Netflix too. This will be bigger than Paul vs Tyson.

    Let's be honest if we could get paid tens of millions of dollars for it we'd fight too. Who knows how much Maywather will get for this.

    I wonder how much they are getting in the rematch.

    Heaps of celebrities will be there. Heaps of Mayweather and Pacquaio fans will still want to see them fight. If tickets are affordable people will fly in from the Phillipines. Guarantee it sells out fast. RJJ vs Tyson in 2020 was one of the highest ever PPV I think at least for 2020. This will be no different.

    You have to hand it to Floyd. There is a reason he is called Money Mayweather. Whether the rumors are correct that he Is broke or he is just bored he’s going to make a lot of money. He saw Pacquiao come out of retirement and do fairly well against Barrios and he figured, what the heck I can do the same thing. Why go after some title when I can just go out for big money against Manny? I hope Manny knocks him out, but give credit to Floyd. He is a very smart guy.

    What are the Floyd fan girls going to say if Floyd walks out of there with a record of 50-1? Will they blame his age or will it be #NoExcuses ?:lol:
