Floyd's been inactive but he's claiming that he'll be coming back in December to face Pacquiao for a rematch. Manny still looked very good in his last performance against Matthysse. Floyd didn't appear as defensively tight against McGregor but that may have been out of choice or might be signs he's deteriorating? If that version of Floyd turns up against Manny it might change the course of the fight.
Maypac 2 - who wins?
I think Floyd won't care so much about his 0 now that he's old inactive this is a money fight if they can pull off a trilogy = more money in the bank. Pac and Floyd by way of bank robbery, people will pay to see a rematch.
If Pac wins it'll mean the world to the pac farts. Manny will be greeted like a god back home..
If Floyd wins... Pac was old doe
Fck this fight. it'll just be endless excuses and more "slow motion" breakdowns of another Pacquiao defeat.
Even playing field then, and I think it'll be interesting to see the degree of regression each fighter shows since their last fight. Why not document the regression of the greats in the place it's most visible - the ring? These glimpses into the decline of great boxers, fighting each other, don't really happen every day and I'm pretty sure it'll be a better fight than Hopkins vs Jones Jr 2.
which is the problem, since this will be a $90 fight.
both north of 40.

Pacquiao looked like a complete cuck in that video. Dude looked like he was gonna cry in the car. Floyd already has won the mental war and since USADA would be involved PEDquiao wouldn't show up.
52-0 easy work
They are both legendary boxers and arguably they're not absurdly past their prime either so it'll still be an interesting boxing match from a purists perspective, if it gets made.
both north of 40.
they both win. It's a meaningless cash grab by both parties, and quite disgusting. Fans lose bigtime.
Floyd coming out of retirement every few years for one meaningless fight is great for casuals, but ultimately bad for the sport. At least this will be better than the circus that was him fighting a bloody nobody.

I doubt the fight even happens. Floyd's just being Floyd - Trying to steal the headlines away from Canelo/GGG and make 'em about himself. It's normal.
However I DO think he'll return to fight GGG after he whoops Canelo again tonight. Been predicting that one for awhile.
Floyd vs Pacquiao 2 generates much more revenue and it'd likely be a fight that either guy has a legitimate chance of winning, based on the first fight. If Floyd comes back it'll be against Pacquiao not GGG imo. Risk-reward ratio just doesn't add up for GGG.

Mayweather wins. He’s better at adapting to his opponents. I think Manny did better than many give him credit for in the first. Unless Floyd has aged much more than Manny has, Floyd knows what to expect and should win comfotably in another snooze fest.
