If Mayweather & Pacquiao do rematch, here is a way FOR the fans, and good of boxing

While I'm not particularly interested in seeing Mayweather v Pacquiao II, here is a way I would like to see it as I believe it would leave boxing in a much better place as a whole, and the two superstars can claim they actually helped the sport rather than they have hinder it over the years:

- Pacquiao spends the rest of the year on the shelf recovering and rehabbing. If he's fit enough to fight before the end of the year then take a gimme fight for a tune-up if he feels he needs one.

- Mayweather sees out the final fight of his contract with Showtime against a not particularly challenging opponent like a Danny Garcia or a Shawn Porter to go 49-0

- Early next year, Mayweather makes his intentions known he wants to go 50-0 and will grant Pacquiao a rematch.

- Mayweather & Al Haymon team up to but the fight on PBC on free-to-air TV. The money they receive from advertising and sponsorships when a gazillion people will be watching makes up for the loss of PPV revenue.

Thus even more eyes are on boxing than last weekend, more people become boxing fans and the PPV market for boxing is blown out of the water.

What? :huh

 

What about if they do it on free-to-air TV. Would you watch then? :think

 

You might get banned for this comment for promoting illegal signal theft. :hey

 

What if the cost of what the PPV revenue was is covered by advertsing/ sponsors like the Super Bowl.

Let's be frank, a rematch on PPV won't do as well as the 1st.

 

I got banned for promoting illegal signal theft when praising the quality of a live stream provided by Top Rank for their undercards.

Stranger things have happened
