        This is gonna be for various reasons a one fight only just Foreman - Ali IMO.

          i dont think so,

          lets say manny wins, then he will go home and run for election

          lets say floyd wins, manny might want a rematch, but floyd would ask for too much $$$, so manny would say fucck it.

            You can't force a trilogy, they just happen. Ali v. Frazier = Trilogy, Foreman v Ali = Trilogy, Frazier v. Foreman =/= Trilogy.

            Gotta wait to see how the fight goes. I doubt anyone expected Ward Gatti to become a trilogy, let alone one of the greatest of all time, yet there it was.

                no and it wouldnt happen anyways. If May wins he's gone. If manny wins hes gone and Arum won't give May a second fight.

                  i doubt it, manny is ready to retire, especially if he beats floyd convincingly.
                  that would be awesome though. lets hope for a war and a draw so theyd have to fight at least one more.

                    I don't think so. Rematches among these type P4P fighters have not been the norm of late.

                    It's the B level guys who seem to be making rematches more often nowadays.

                      Maybe..Lets look at the scenarios:

                      If Pacquaio wins, no way does he rematch Floyd. He would more than likely face a beatable champ in Shane and then try to win a belt at 147. I really believe Pac and his team dislike the Mayweather and I doubt they would do them the favor of giving them a chance to redeem themselves.

                      If Floyd wins, I can see a rematch because that would still be a big money fight as compared to a Shane Mosley. Other than Mosley, there aren't any more big money fights for Floyd outside of a rematch with Pacquiao.

                      So depending on who wins, will dictate a rematch. Doing it a second or third time would only be for monetary reason, and unless it is close does nothing for their legacies (as compared to beating Shane and other fighters in the division)
