Mayweather was enjoying his retirement when some of his sidekicks gave him the idea of earning another $250 million. I guess it was Dana White, who first came up with the idea of a rematch between Floyd and Conor. But Floyd thought that rather than fighting Conor, it may be easier to fight against Manny in a shortened match (6-round?).
How come Manny becomes an easier fight than Conor, Manny is a boxing veteran and Conor just debuted against Mayweather and will never fight again as he does not have the stamina to be a boxer
.
But Manny was cunning and he told him that the fight would not go ahead as planned, unless he go for a full 12-match fight. So finally we have a rematch between Floyd and Manny and it is going to be a proper fight (not the 6-round rubbish that Floyd was pushing in the beginning).
Which fight are you talking about as i cannot see any news site reporting this rematch
. Mayweather is still retired and there is nothing official about the fight.
