Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao Part II

[cryptoaddictchie]

Honestly I didnt know that a second match up is possible as MayWeather will definitely negotiate a higher pay rate for this. But Pacman probably agreed on the terms.

Im sure many locals from the Philippines are excited with this match and likely give time for this. Who wouldnt not right? But some critics says this match is all about money and we might see another act of boxing. You think that they will fight like the first one? Or we could see a better rumble this time?

[Oasisman]

Now this is what I'm talking about!
Does this mean, Pacquiao will have 2 fights both happening this year? If I'm not mistaken, his fight against Provodnikov for an exhibition match is set for April, right? I'm afraid they're gonna move his Mayweather fight early next year, or are thet already set for that date as well? This isn't good for a 47 year old fighter, considering who's he fighting with, and I heard the Mayweather match isn't just an exhibition match. Even if it is, these 2 will treat like it's not, because a win in this match will surely an addition to their legacy.

Can't wait for this match.

Finally, something that isn't about YouTuber advertising, which focuses more on the spectacle than the sport itself. I'll definitely watch this one, although I suppose the result will be similar to last time. Their fighting styles are different, and I expect things will be interesting. Netflix hit the nail on the head with this; it will undoubtedly generate a lot of revenue and a large audience if they maintain this approach in the future.

While I do agree that both are somehow way past their prime, as long as it is an official match and NOT an exhibition match, then count me in!

For as long as we will get to witness these two (2) legends fight once again on the ring, I will always be rooting for Pacquiao to win. Given that they have their respective playstyle, where Manny prefers to be on the offensive; while Mayweather is tactical, I hope they really play for the crowd and give an explosive fight within the first few rounds of the match.

As long as it is not an exhibition match and it is an official match, then I still think that they will fight fire with fire. For sure that Mayweather had already negotiated having the higher pay here and I just can't wait to watch them fight once again.

[m2017]

This is another great match on boxing scene this year and feel excited to watch their upcoming fight.

A great match? Really?

This will be a show between two pensioners (despite their legendary past), not a boxing match. But let's not judge them for that, because they need money to live, too. A rematch after 11 years - it sounds funny.

I don't expect Pacquiao to be able to put up any fight against Mayweather. The days when that could happen are long gone. Mayweather is a cunning fighter, and that's his advantage. He'll be the winner again.

Finally after so many years of waiting, this rematch will finally happen. Though i have hesitations on who i will be backing on this fight but with Manny Pacquiao's recent activity, i have him as the would-be winner and finally erase the zero on Floyd Mayweather's record. Both have a tune-up fight because they meet so i think they will be both in shape come fight night and no more alibis on why one losses this one.

Can I bet on the 2 boxers heheheheh. In any case, yes similar to their right before, they have waited another long time before they have agreed to fight hehe. This fight will not anymore be on who is the better boxer. This fight is for the fans. I only very much want to witness these 2 boxers fight, I do not care anymore who will be the winner. However, if I will be forced to choose a bet, my money is on Money Mayweather. I wish the odds will not be very low hehehehe.

Also, I was very much mistaken that it will be King Ry vs. Pacman this year. It appears they have given us a much better fight and this is on Netflix!

[FinneysTrueVision]

Mayweather is having some serious financial problems and has recently filed a lawsuit against his former broadcast partner Showtime for $340 million. This is why he has decided to come out of retirement. He is choosing a safe opponent to protect his undefeated record. Still, I expect this to be a tough fight. I don’t expect Mayweather to have the stamina and speed from before, now that he is almost 50. Pacquiao might be able to edge out a decision by outworking him.

[Jostern]

I find this match up very hilarious, especially when this rematch would’ve been done a long time ago, this are legends in the World of Boxing, This are two old men so I don’t really understand why they have to make this fight now, and so many fans have forgotten them, Floyd Mayweather is 49 years old now, Manny Pacquiao is 47 years old now and that means this players are currently in their late 40s, I’m just wondering how many rounds they can be able to go, or someone might just knockout someone, I don’t really find this matchup very interesting and I’m not excited about the matchup, I would believe they want to fight again to make some money, it seems like they money they have available is exhausted, well the both legends should just go to the match and have fun and just be jumping around the ring, well anyways they still have alot of time to prepare for this matchup.

I believe this matchup was fixed because someone among the both legend are having some financial difficulties which is why we are seeing this matchup all of sudden from nowhere.

Saturday September 19 on Netflix

This fight is happening at the Sphere in Las Vegas! Both fighters are well beyond their prime, but this will surely be an event to attend. Free to watch on Netflix might make it a popular betting event as well.

Manny Pacquiao is 47 and Floyd Mayweather is 48. Both are legends and have nothing left to prove, but they are doing this for the fans. I just hope the outcome will be exciting, maybe even with a knockout. I’m a Manny fan, which is very common since I’m from the Philippines, but as a boxing fan, I would rather see a knockout than another fight like their last one where there was too much clinching and running.
Also, as a boxing fan, I have one more wish: I hope this doesn’t get postponed again. It would be funny if they end up fighting for the second time when they’re already 50 years old.

I can agree that both fighters are beyond their prime at this point and they have nothing to prove anymore because they're legends that have given their best in their prime. Their rematch has been expected for many years and it didn't happen, I think the excitement to see both of them in a fight had died down but still it will be good to watch them once again in the ring. This time a date has been fixed so it's happening for real and I look forward to their fight, although it'll be hard to figure who to put my money on but might go for Floyd Mayweather, just for fun.

There’s really no pressure on Floyd since this is just an exhibition fight. For Manny, this feels like the rematch he’s been wanting for a long time.

I don't think it's an exhibition match, I think it will be count as a professional match. I think it's to settle the previous match since many fans were asking for it and this time, they might be able to prove who's really the best. This is really are very exciting match to see, not only we will see two great boxers in the same ring again however, time have passed and many people think that they are not on their primes anymore but at least we would see them in the professional match, personally they're not that old and I think we can still see some good match this upcoming September. I'm just curious, were there already odds for the match?

I check and this is what I found:

Floyd Mayweather Jr.    -225
Manny Pacquiao   +171

https://www.covers.com/boxing/mayweather-vs-pacquiao-odds-sphere-las-vegas

So it means that Floyd is still the favorite going into this rematch. or if we point it in decimal value of others that are familiar with this listing

Floyd Mayweather Jr.    1.44
Manny Pacquiao   2.71

Only thing is that we all agree that they are no longer in their prime. Yes, it's not a exhibition fight as multiple sources reported it to be a professional match.

More on the money side for Floyd but for Pacman it's a opportunity to prove himself though just like what you said they are no longer on their primes and we don't know what they can bring but for sure many fans wants to witness they fight as they are longing to see both great fighters fighting together inside the ring, and for sure the winner will be the people behind the schedule fight..

[Taskford]

As what the majority says here, it's all about money for both of this fighter.

But as a fan of Manny Pacquaio, as obviously as Filipino we love Manny, so we are going to support him in this fight or at least bet on him to win. The first fight was controversial in the sense that Floyd didn't want to stay and fight toe to toe and then Manny has this shoulder injury.

So we still have another chance to see this fight, although it's exhibition and they are no longer in their prime.

Boxing is business and who doesn't care about money? For sure both of them want to earn such huge and if there's no money involve in this discussion for sure this rematch will not gonna happen.

Its good to see that Netflix made this fight to happen and offer such nice entertainment to their platform users. What hope to see is we don't see a shit show here from Mayweather since he have this reputation that always running from his opponent especially on Pacquaio. I thought that this fight is impossible to happen now that both of them is retired on the scene, but it seems that Netflix offer irresistible figures that's why both of them agree in this fight.

[nimogsm]

Two experienced boxers will fight for old fans and to make good money once again. If Netflix is ​​the main partner, the money is clearly good. Whether it will be interesting is another question; if they go out and just throw punches in the air for a few rounds, it will be sad, but don't expect a serious fight, as this is an exhibition bout and nothing more.I think we'll soon see another series of fights between old stars, mediated by Netflix.

Honestly it doesn’t even matter if they’re taking it super serious or not. At the end of the day, fans just want to see a good and entertaining fight.

For me, I can finally watch this without any hassle since I’ve been subscribed to Netflix for years already. Way different from their first fight where I had to go to some shop and pay just to watch it, and the reception was so bad it almost ruined the whole experience.

At least now it’s streaming in full HD on Netflix, so quality won’t be the problem anymore. I’m just keeping my expectations in check because sometimes the hype is louder than the actual fight itself.

I think this fight being free for Netflix subscribers is the only way they could get anyone to watch this. I’ll admit I wasn’t interested when they fought closer to their prime. I have zero interest in watching this one. I probably won’t even check it out. Glad Netflix is getting into live sports. I just wish they had better live sports instead of wasting millions like this.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Damn! Another battle of uncs. I guess it's for the money making only. Honestly, i'm not really impressed with this match. It only tells us how Netflix is still being trapped with 2015 memories. I'm wondering why don't they bring us an acqual boxing fight.
Well i can only guess that netflix think this goofy fight seems more appeal to the their users and public instead of held a competitive fight that will give us entertain.

Both Floyd and Pacquiao are broke and washed. I think this game is not worthy to bet consider it's a meme fight.  

[batang_bitcoin]

I haven't seen the news before this post Netflix has done. They really are good at this surprise good matches to be watched by their users. It's also going to attract new 1-month subscriptions for those who only want to watch them fight again.

Just an exhibition match but fans like to watch these retirees and legends fight again. No comment against their financial status now but I think Pacquiao despite that he's still got a lot of money left, he's just trying to do all of these fights while he can to make the most out of it.

[tygeade]

This could be one of those fights where it is not about boxing but more about money that can be generated. We all know that it's a boring match between two retired old dudes at this point. What is next, Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield rematch? That would actually be quite funny to watch I am not going to lie I would watch that.

But Mayweather and Pacman do not fight like that, they are just "numbers" fighters, as in they do not even try to beat each other up, they just want the numbers on their side to win the round and that's it, and that is boring and Mayweather has been boring all his life because he figured out he doesn't need to fight, he just needs to win rounds.

[Mindyspace]

The Sphere in Las Vegas looks incredible, and the fact that it's streamed for free on Netflix should attract a lot of people. I'm really curious… is it really that exciting, or is it more about watching casually and seeing who wins? Because to be honest, I'm interested and would like to know more about it; it must be quite a fight.

[Moreno233]

For me this is just purely for entertainment and nothing competitive about it. I know it will be worth the watch as well as the media publicity around it. Money will be made for sure but the good thing is that it can be streamed for free. Even if the match is to be played ten times Floyd Mayweather will always beat Manny Pacquiao.
