Yeah, Barrios isn't the GOAT but he's still a modern day champ. If Floyd actually fought Manny today, it's a dangerous fight for money and Manny would have the advantage.

    And if Floyd fought Barrios today he will lose because he hasn't fought in almost a decade? Is that what you are saying?

      You said Manny would give Floyd brain damage. I gave a list of guys that beat your idol senseless and asked you how come your idol wasn't able to beat them. And your response is the typical side stepping goal shifting. Just a simple question - Manny got beat by a bunch of guys "in his prime, no less" so now at 45 years old is when he can somehow pull a miracle and beat Floyd.
      Manny couldn't even KO a Korean YouTuber with ZERO boxing experience and you think he beats Floyd? We get you love your idol but damn! It's been over 10 years since these two relics fought and Manny couldn't beat Barrios but but but somehow he beats Floyd?

      Lastly, did Manny make $100 million fighting Barrios or Ugas? Did he?

        No thanks. Fight was a dude. Fmj repeatedly stated he'd fight toe to toe, put on a show and knock Pac out.by the end of the fight,Pac looked like he ran marathon and May had a fat lip.

          Is boxing trying to find new ways to look bizarre? I remember years and years ago going to a nightshift and dreading the thought of the taxi driver talking about football nonstop. He started talking about boxing and I was so happy. Even back then he said "I would have been interested in Manny v Floyd, but that time is long past". Nothing has changed. But if Jake Paul fighting a disabled person sells big figures, what do I know?

            1 fight is never enough. Whilst the first fight in 2015 was 118-110 Mayweather by traditional scoring methods, on the Nash scoring system, every round without a knockdown is 10-10, so it was a 120-120 draw. And just like with Fury vs Uysk, these guys need to fight at least 4 times to show who is the best, if not 5 or 6. Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2 and 3 can take place in 2026, and 4 and maybe 5 in 2027, then we'll know who is the better man. Nash out - His Majesty

              Don't ever let them forget it lol I remember after the 1000 punches Clottey fight the pacstans were saying he would smash the shoulder roll and all kinds of smack talk. In the end Floyd turned Pac into nothing but a glorified sparring partner and made it look like one of his easiest wins

                Floyd still gambles a ton, plus spending money taking care of his grandkids, big meech and his son, he invested a ton in real estate ifhe lost any money from such hell need that's 250m for security purposes he's smart enough now to probably invest it live off the 15m a year in dividends. My guess he's coming back for whomever gives him the most guaranteed money meaning this will be on Netflix in South Arabia 350m purse 105m pac 245m Mayweather. If Mayweather wins this and tank loses to Jake Paul expect a money vs Jake for another guaranteed 200m. It's getting closer to the 2030 trillion dollar neon project expect Saudi to start making more moves hint paying Tom Brady 75m for 1 flag football game

                  i doubt floyd fights pac to be honest, he would be underdog in the rematch

                  i can see him fighting mike tyson or mcgregor though

                    All Floyd has to do is sign the contract and fight Pacquiao again. What's so hard about that? Nobody wants to waste time watching his phony fake fights vs the mafia don's grandson or a 60 yr old. These are circus sideshows. Tell me why can't the lil coward just STFU and fight Pacquiao again?

                      It was a boring fight and then Pac with some excuse about his shoulder. Doubt if this happens it would be any better, it would be a nostalgia fight like the last Tyson fight. People bought in to it because of what they remember what Tyson was
