In order to cement his legacy, and hold his head up high in retirement, Michael Koncz says Floyd Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26KOs) will have to face Manny Pacquiao. Koncz, the longtime adviser of Pacquiao, says the undefeated pound-for-pound king needs to fight Pacquiao once and for all to settle argument as to which of them was the better fighter of this era.
The negotiations between both sides are ongoing. There have been discussions in the past and they always fell apart. The date and location being discussed is unknown, but Mayweather says he is planning to fight on May 2nd.
“Manny said the fans deserve the Mayweather fight and we’re doing everything that we can possibly do other than say that we can fight for free to make it happen,” said Koncz to the Philippine Star. “It’s really up to Floyd. If he wants to cement his legacy and pull his head up when he retires he’s got to give the fans what they want."
