Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Fredomago]

Bad timing for Floyd, as it's monsoon season here so probably Naruto is hiding somewhere. Probably it's better for Floyd to hunt Godzilla if he wants challenge. 

Hahaha, it will be harder to find Naruto with the current weather condition, though maybe he's trying to cook something after meeting Pacman in japan and made that press con maybe they are doing something behind, or maybe just an ordinary trip to relax and enjoy his winning money. It will be nice to hear if rumors will be hyped with a possibility of him and Pacquiao in an exhibition fight.

If that will happen it will gain more attentions and more ticket sales, just saying!

We never know until something come up and announces the potential possibilities of this, just going to wait for any update.

[Jating]

Floyd won another exhibition match in Japan,

I have forgotten about that fight, thanks for reminding. Another easy money for Floyd. Google says that Floyd would get 20 millions if he competes and 30 if he wins that fight, and most funny, 1.5 million if he appears on a press conference. Surprisingly, this exhibition fight last more than 1 round.

Damn, 20 - 30 million is a dream money fight for some of the elite boxers that we have right now, Canelo is still the cash cow, but GGG get around that money fighting him. So just imagine those lower weight class champion, I doubt that they can get around how much Floyd is making in exhibition fight in like 6 minutes.

I'm also curious though if the organizers can really get more than what they gave? $30 Million is already a huge money, a money that a lower weight class champion cannot even earn in a year.

They'll get more if they sold more tickets.
Regardless though, these organizers will not pursue exhibition matches if they don't get a handsome profit from it. May it be they get more than what the boxer gets or the other way around, they are still earning millions.
Put Mayweather or Pacquiao or anyone who's retired and formerly dominates in any combat sports in the ring for an exhibition match, and we can easily tell it's a guaranteed money.

Logically right! Promoters will not spend time and effort just to pay the fighter's check but for making decent money,
they continue to bring exhibition fights to earn as simple as that.

Look how Mayweather collecting easy money from those fights that he made, and now,
we will see also Pacquiao doing his own versions of exhibition.

Maybe the difference is Pacquiao announces that the profits will go to the chosen charity while for Mayweather every
sweat means a huge amount of dollars.

I think we will see Pacquaio doing the same exhibition match with small twist like the profits for charity and other thing to help his people. But I guess he will have to make some money as well. So just imagine fighting in less than the usual 12 rounds and brutal fighting in professional fight, you can earn the same or even higher in an exhibition match. So it's logical and make sense for Mannny and obviously, he will do that because he has a schedule with some Youtuber from South Korea and his former sparring partner in the Middle East also slated. And maybe go to Japan and fight too for bigger purse and money.

After a long wait, finally, we could now our beloved "Angas ng Pinas" fighting back as he said he will be fighting Ryo Akaho on December 3,2022 in Japan but no confirmation yet from the promoter but I think he can be trusted on this one. So, it's official that he will be moving up in weight as they will be fighting at the super bantamweight division and I think Inoue will be watching this one as it will happen in his country.

It looks like Casimero's opponent isn't a pushover.  Having 43 professional fights with only 2 defeats and 2 draws with 26 KOs.  It is an interesting match for Casimero for his 1st fight (if I am not mistaken) on the Super Bantamweight Division.  

I think we will see Pacquaio doing the same exhibition match with small twist like the profits for charity and other thing to help his people. But I guess he will have to make some money as well. So just imagine fighting in less than the usual 12 rounds and brutal fighting in professional fight, you can earn the same or even higher in an exhibition match. So it's logical and make sense for Mannny and obviously, he will do that because he has a schedule with some Youtuber from South Korea and his former sparring partner in the Middle East also slated. And maybe go to Japan and fight too for bigger purse and money.

Isn't Manny have a scheduled exhibition fight against Korean Youtuber DK Yoo?  It was written in this article[1] that Manny's Pacquiao next fight is confirmed on Dec. 11.  Here is an invitation statement of Manny Pacquiao for their fight on Dec. 11.

Pacquiao’s statement in full is,

“Hello everyone I would like to invite you to watch the upcoming fight on December 11th, the exhibition match with DK Yoo in Korea. I hope you are all going to watch this fight, it’s going to be fun and I will make sure everybody will be happy and will enjoy this bout.”

It's make sense if Mayweather want to fight against Silva, but for Francis Ngannou, Kamaru Usman and Israel Adesanya? that's really a big joke for me. They're a champion in their own weight except Usman that has beaten by Edwards few weeks ago, of course they wouldn't want to ruin their reputation and name because of money. Only a weak or unknown fighter will agree to take exhibition fight against an old popular person, this because they're willing to lose only to get huge pay check.

I think the feeling is mutual for Anderson to look and fight Mayweather in the future. But again, it will go down as how financially this fight is going to be. Both are legends in their own right, but Floyd is really making easy money fighting Japanese fighters that are not even in his level. So if ever Floyd will fight another ex-MMA, I think he will still look for Conor as this is the best lucrative fight for him and Conor himself. Anderson might have to fall in line to fight Floyd in exhibitions match.

It would be a one-sided fight and will surely bring lots of money to Mayweather especially if Anderson Silva will win his coming match against Jake Paul.

Yeah, he's got already two matches line up and those are the very reasons why he has accepted those fights. Main reason for him is about the charity purposes and there's already a beneficiary for that.

But it's not already a secret that him and the others who are doing such fights have their share too. Take it the example of Floyd Mayweather, he's already retired in the pro boxing but not in the entire boxing as he's open into exhibition matches.

I guess these two living legends are going to live their lives fighting for the proposed exhibition matches on them.

Since bantamweight are dominated by Inoue, this is why Casimero move to the next weight in order to avoid him. But I think sooner or later Casimero will face Inoue since Inoue will move to super bantamweight after he's become undisputed champion on bantamweight. I don't know it's a good choice by Casimero to increase his weight, if he's decrease his weight and just stay on super flyweight, he will be safer.

I don't know it's a good choice by Casimero to increase his weight, if he's decrease his weight and just stay on super flyweight, he will be safer.

I watched the Casemero-Rigondeaux on Showtime. Casemero after his victory challenged Inoue to a fight and it became a trend after he called the Japanese a turtle. I discovered that Casemero was frustrated on Inoue since they were supposed to face each other but it was cancelled because of the covid period. What is the point that Casemero avoids Inoue? Wasn't Casemro hunting Inoue? Casemero twice was unable to make the bantamweight limit in a healthy way reason why he was removed as a champion. This is the reason he is back at super bantamweight. How can Casemero make super flyweight?

[LUCKMCFLY]

He tried to do what he had to do at the same time and he won at some point in time but later on Pacman realized that he is not getting any younger and should only pick one fight at a time that's why he retired after he lost to Ugas and focused on politics as he is also busy at that time for the presidential election.

Now, that he almost got all the time in the world, and just like what we've speculated, Pacman is not coming back but on an exhibition fight.

With the losses that he's made, that also made him realize that he's aged although he can still really box well. But age does really play a factor for athletes like in boxing.

That's right! But if only Manny Pacquiao wasn't that busy enough in his last fight then I seriously bet that the outcome of the fight would be much different and Yordenis Ugas would be the one who got defeated. Pacquiao was too busy that time he is also a senator while he is also preparing to run for presidency and then he got a fight.

I'll take your word for it too, at that time Pacquiao didn't have much time to prepare to fight him, UGAS is a boxer who takes advantage of opportunities, I'm sure that if PACQUIAO had had the opportunity to do a very intense training without thinking about political or something like that, the result would have been different, maybe some people who don't like Paquiao's style don't see that, but Pacquiao is a man who has a lot of technique, despite the defeat with Ugas I don't see it as relevant, yes It affects, because in part it tarnishes his reputation a little, but seeing it from the point of view that he is very legendary, that victory of eUGAS does not mean anything.

I think we will see Pacquaio doing the same exhibition match with small twist like the profits for charity and other thing to help his people. But I guess he will have to make some money as well.

In particular, I would not like to see Pacquiao out of the fights, Floyd Mayweather for me is not as great as he is for many, and I think I have already made it clear, you can say that Mayweather is very intelligent and he dated everyone the champion belts, but for me he is not a complete fighter, he has a long way to go, and I think there could be better things with Pacquiao despite his age, I know that the exhibition fights are for benefits, but it is also an incentive seeing Pacquiao with those gloves and in a ring, for me it is very good that he can do a great job if he maintains the same rhythm, we will only have to wait for what they can offer him so that he can return to his usual fights and fill us with emotions.

How can Casemero make super flyweight?

It is as you say, Casimero is a boxer who is sometimes given impulses, and it was very wrong to call the Japanese turtle, but I think that at the heart of all this is that Casimero did it to get the attention of the Japanese, because Inoue is currently highly sought after, most boxers want to compete with him, because the Japanese is very good, however I don't think this goes unnoticed by Inoue, if something in boxing is very important it is when challenges arise, and this can become viral if Inoue ignores, because people, the gangs are very decisive when it comes to these challenges, I think this fight should be made, with that if Inoue is the best, many will want not to challenge him for his supremacy.


Pacquiao in Talks For Potential Exhibition Fight in January 2023

Pacquiao is already scheduled to take part in a charity fight on December 10 in Seoul, against South Korean YouTuber DK Yoo. The bulk of the money will be sent to the country of Ukraine, which is currently under attack by Russia.

“I will prepare in the same way I train for a real fight,” Pacquiao said.

Source: https://www.boxingscene.com/pacquiao-talks-potential-exhibition-fight-january-2023--168968

And although he has made it very clear that he will not return to the fights, I may say this as if to create more controversy, but I am sure that if they cheer him back, he will.

That's good to hear that Casimero is finally back in the right, but let's see, we have to wait for the final announcement of this fight. And moving up is the only thing to do for him so that he can move forward, obviously his body can't make the bantamweight as he had health issues and the losing his belt to Butler. Definitely, Inoue will be watching this one as they are supposed to fight in the bantamweight for the unification. Hopefully Casimero will win and be back being the brandish that he is.

Something that worth to wait, Casimero is one of those prime fighter and the way he deals with his opponent really gives him the credential being a belt holder, sadly he just lose it with Butler due to maintaining his weight but since he's moving up, it will be a good challenge for him if he can still dominate from this new division. But for now, it will be good to hear or read any confirmation about this rumor fight. We are reading lots of schedule fights but till now there's no contract signing to confirm the schedule dates.

That was a match that was perfect timing for Ugas.

Pacquiao was doing a lot of things on that time and can't focus a lot to the sudden change that the match that he has went for.

I also think that the ending will be different if Pacquiao wasn't doing other things related to politics.

It was expected to him that no changes will happen but it had been different after all.

[livingfree]

Yeah, he's got already two matches line up and those are the very reasons why he has accepted those fights. Main reason for him is about the charity purposes and there's already a beneficiary for that.

No doubt Floyd is intelligent and that's why he's making bank right now.

And the stats that he's made for himself, he worked hard for him. Sure, it has been a long way to go but he still has reached it.

While for these exhibition fights, I guess it's another career path for the returned boxers like them to still go.

Like having not that much preparation but the pay check that will be given to them is a lot.

I believe Casimero moved up in division because he has a problem meeting the weight limit and it is not because he is avoiding Inoue.  I believe they already had a scheduled fight but was postponed due to the pandemic.

There are videos circulating on the internet where Casimero is calling out Inoue for a match so and I think that proves that Casimero is itching for a match against Inoue but then the controversial event happens and Casimer were stripped of the title and eventually decided to move up.

In Casimero's recent division, I believe Tete is aiming for a rematch, and if ever Inoue moves up, there is a possibility for Inoue - Casimero fight.

[freedomgo]

Floyd won another exhibition match in Japan,

The 45-year-old Mayweather dropped Asakura just before the bell sounded to end the second round. He tried to get up, but the southpaw couldn’t quite beat referee Kenny Bayless’ count before it reached 10.

Mayweather won in the main event of a Rizin pay-per-view show at Saitama Super Arena.

https://www.boxingscene.com/floyd-mayweather-drops-stops-mikuru-asakura-end-2nd-round-exhibition--169302

So another mismatch fight for Floyd and another easy money for him as he knock out Asakura in the second round.

Take note that Manny is amongst the crowd though, so maybe after his match against a South korean and then against his former sparring partner, he might go to Japan as well like Floyd and fight.

Of course it's a mismatch I mean, I seriously don't think that Floyd Mayweather would fight someone who have a fair chance in beating the undefeated Floyd. He may say that he's willing to put his record on the line but we already know the truth behind that.

Hopefully we can see another Pacquiao-Mayweather fight even if it's just an exhibition fight, people would surely love that if that's going to happen soon. Even if it's just an exhibition fight these two cannot hide their competitiveness, so we might see classic fight. I'm rooting for it!

Even it is only an exhibition fight, fans will surely love to see both legends about the ring. The chance, though, is slim knowing how
Mayweather will give his excuses.

If ever, just in case that the wind will move in the right direction, maybe a billion of dollars may change his mind. I don't know but
Mayweather can easily bank money from many exhibitions that he might take.

He won't be bothering risking his clean record just to make some amount facing Pacquiao in an exhibition fight.

People won't bother paying expensive tickets and PPV because seeing Mayweather and Pacquiao sharing a ring for the second time is not a sight that we always see, surely a fight like that will generate and amass millions of dollars, and might be on top of the list again when it comes to most generated revenue.

Although, I believe that Mayweather will still take that 60% cut and won't settle lower than that. I don't even recall that there's a fight where he settled less whether if it's an exhibition or professional fight.

[Kasabus]

I think we will see Pacquaio doing the same exhibition match with small twist like the profits for charity and other thing to help his people. But I guess he will have to make some money as well. So just imagine fighting in less than the usual 12 rounds and brutal fighting in professional fight, you can earn the same or even higher in an exhibition match. So it's logical and make sense for Mannny and obviously, he will do that because he has a schedule with some Youtuber from South Korea and his former sparring partner in the Middle East also slated. And maybe go to Japan and fight too for bigger purse and money.

But it's not already a secret that him and the others who are doing such fights have their share too. Take it the example of Floyd Mayweather, he's already retired in the pro boxing but not in the entire boxing as he's open into exhibition matches.

I guess these two living legends are going to live their lives fighting for the proposed exhibition matches on them.

Of course, both Mayweather and Pacquiao can pledge to donate all they want but they cannot deny that they are also taking a small fraction of what they earned for their personal use. Other than that, these two legends can still do and enjoy their passion safely nowadays without getting too much bruises while still garnering huge revenues from the fight they organized. A boxer will always be a boxer as they said, that is why even if they already retired professionally they are still fighting in a form of exhibition and can enjoy the leverage of being a legend.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. already buried the chances that he might face Manny Pacquiao again even if it will be in massive demand by the community.

He mentioned that he already had a hard fight in his life and all he will do now is purely for entertainment and fun.

It does mean that even in the exhibition matches, we will no longer see "The Money" fighting a real boxer within his league which does make sense after all. Those who will be annoyed at his exhibition match should just accept that Floyd is just making big money even in retirement.

For real? That is really unfortunate because I was surely hoping that we could see them sharing a ring once more and this the first time I've heard that Floyd Mayweather is turning down a fight that will give him good amount of money worth millions. Now, I'm starting to wonder if that includes McGregor because there's a rumor that there might be a Mayweather-McGregor 2.

It looks like Mayweather Jr. acknowledge that he will have a hell of a fight if he gave an opportunity to a rematch against Manny Pacquiao.  Honestly I have seen Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao's fight in slow motion version(can't find the link of that yt video now), and it was clearly shown that almost all the punches that the judges thinks that clearly hit Manny are blocked by Manny's gloves instead.  The reflex reaction of Manny in blocking and evading Mayweather's punches are superb during their match but I think it was too fast for the aging judges to see them clearly  .

It does mean that even in the exhibition matches, we will no longer see "The Money" fighting a real boxer within his league which does make sense after all. Those who will be annoyed at his exhibition match should just accept that Floyd is just making big money even in retirement.

Who knows, since Mayweather Jr. is a businessman, he might change his mind and think of fighting Manny in an exhibition match.  Money can change any decision when an opportunity opens up.  Besides they can do whatever they agreed upon even having an agreed script on how they will play the match.

We will see, I never thought that Floyd will fight Conor but it happen, so anything is open up to this fight. They have been seen both in Japan and Floyd even travel to Pacquiao's Philippines. So something might be brewing between the two. But in any case, the ball is always on the court of Floyd. But sure Manny is more willing to face him in exhibition fight. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango, so if Floyd is not willing, then we can't do anythin about it. The only thing that we can hold is that if there is demand and the money in the table is huge, maybe this could be Floyd's last fight.

Floyd Mayweather is now just doing exhibitions to earn money to sustain his lifestyle as in exhibition fights he will not be training so hard in the gym to get fit unlike if he will be fighting Manny where he needs to be in great shape because that would be a competitive fight and he will lost his zero if will not train hard  .

Bottomline, i think Floyd is already done/retired in boxing and will not risk his life fighting Manny so i think the latter should also do the same, fight in an exhibition fight if he misses the lime light because i don't think that he will do exhibitions for money as he has tons of it right now.
