Manny Pacquiao will fight for his country if they ask him to at Rio Olympic Games

Will Floyd fight for USA?
Maybe all his Olympic fights could be at MGM with Kenny Bayless at the helm :think

 

Will Floyd undergo actual Olympic style drug testing at the Olympics?

 

Hell no, he'll claim there isn't enough water in the Amazon river to keep him hydrated and will bring his NSAC approved TMT IV bags to Brazil.

 

Good PR, he needs those votes when it's election time.

 

he probably say he cant do it because it dehydrates him

 

Get, Pac, Mayweather, Fury and MF Bruno all there!
I'd definitely watch!

 

I can imagine Fury going...

Everyone else will duck it as they may have to face someone who they would avoid or get payed big money to fight in the pro game instead.

leave it to the amateurs.

 

"Qualification for the boxing events at the 2016 Summer Olympics is based on the APB and WSB World Rankings, APB and WSB World and Olympic Qualifier, the 2015 World Championships, and the 2016 World Olympic Qualifying Tournament. For the women's events, qualification is based only on the 2016 Women's World Championships. For both men and women, each boxer is selected to compete for the Games through the four Continental Olympic Qualifying Tournaments to be held in 2016"

None of those professional boxers you listed here can just go on Olympics like that. You need to qualify first and win some amateur matches. I can't imagine someone like Fury going through that while he has a rematch with Wlad coming up.

 

The association said Manny would be able to skip the qualifications and just go straight to the main draw in Rio.

 

They have to go thru the qualifier for the Olympics. Though I could see some specials getting an invite.

My limited understanding of this is that pros would skip the preliminary qualifiers and go straight into the final qualies in a few months.

I can definitely see Manny in the olympics, think it'd be great.

 

Ahem

Almost everything.
