[Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs. Conor McGregor

[hulla]

But why are you mixing popularity and athletic performance? I respect both of them in Conor, but he is not great either there or there. Time will pass and another show-man will repeat the same tricks. There is demand and there will be supply, people are willing to pay for the show.

As long as people are willing to pay to watch the right, we will certainly see the same kind of rare fight, but it will not be rare in the future as it will be repeated. Boxing has not been as it was before, it's now all about the money now and they would be willing to break that principle for the money.

True, Conor is a boxer, he got some license, but to get big fight with some legendary fighter, I think fans would think that there's someone out there that is deserving to fight Manny, not an amateur boxer in reality.

It would be much more interesting for me if Connor had fought not with a top boxer ending his career, but with one of those who are just starting their way up and have good statistics like 10-0 or 15-0. I think Connor would have been beaten very easily and his fans would have been disappointed as a regular boxer would have done it, not a legendary one.

If Connor is to fight a young and unknown boxer, there would be no money on it and fans will not but it. For me, the reason why Connor floated the idea of this fight is because of the money involve. This exhibition fight if push through is just for money and beneficial for both health-wise as the chance of one fighter hurting the other is slim.

Wait guys, i dont understand why you called Conor an amateur fighter when he was former two-weight UFC champion and he was able to fought Mayweather till the 10th round. Do you know how many professional boxers that can stay in the ring with Mayweather for 5rounds? How many UFC fighter can do what Conor did?
Yes, he may want to fight Manny because of the money involve but people dont care and what they want is to see him in the ring with Manny.

People are willing to pay to get this two in the ring, otherwise this fight won't happen.
What people would really want is to see how Manny beat Conor badly, he is not the king in boxing, it's not MMA, so there's no chance he will win.

If he stand with Mayweather until 10 rounds, i think he would not last 3 rounds with Manny if Manny will not think of the "EXHIBITION FIGHT".

Manny would not just play Conor McGregor here, it's not in his principle to manipulate a fight, Conor McGregor challenge Manny for a boxing match, Manny accepted the challenge so he will try to win impressively again. His career is not over yet, in fact he is still a champion at his division, and could possibly fight Spence or Crawford soon, but of course, if Manny is looking for big money and easy fight, he knows the answer.

I'm not sure how this could be possible, they should agree to another new set of rules which will make them comfortable in the fighting. As we all know, boxing and UFC is completely different, there's not much to worry about Manny Pacquiao as boxing doesn't have that much freedom to hit, and boxers are already trained for that. But for the side of Conor, I don't want to happen what his fight with Mayweather, he is literally applying UFC rules.

Perhaps, rules should be clear to have an exciting fight. I'm sure Manny Pacquiao is not making this with money as his top priority, as I have heard before, he's gonna do it for a cause and that is to help the people.

Wait. If its up to Manny fans they wont have want the fight to happen but this is between the UFC, Mayweather and Manny fans doing. They wanted to see if Conor have a chance to beat Manny.

If he stand with Mayweather until 10 rounds, i think he would not last 3 rounds with Manny if Manny will not think of the "EXHIBITION FIGHT".

You have to be kidding. Is Manny some kind of Superman? Let last time i check, Mayweather Jr punches is stronger than his which i believe you agreed with me if you have watch wrestle mania xxiv when Mayweather take on Big show and if Conor was able to endure his punches  till the 10th round there chance for him to beat Manny. Try and watch Conor boxing training so you won't base all your presumption about the fight on what's understand about Manny alone.

Conor knows the rule of the boxing, he would not get a license if he does not, and this is not his first fight, we saw him fought Mayweather so I'm sure Conor would know how fight, it's just that his skills is at a lower level compared to Manny Pacquiao, and with that said, he would not win against Manny Pacquiao.
