How irrelevant is Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2?

[Illmatic94]

it'll still crack 2 million homes.

[!! Shawn]

Are people actually interested in this fight? Both are both pass their prime and just fighting for retirement checks. I still think it doesn't get made and if it does, both must be really desperate for money because the hardcore fan doesn't want to see this farce.

There are casual that will watch who still think Mike Tyson is the heavyweight champion.

So yes, people will watch.

I doubt it will do the numbers Mayweather thinks though, given the current irrelevance of Manny at this stage of his career.

It's only relevant if the winner faces a top ww after.

The only thing this is relevant to is them making big money, its just a cash out fight two huge names with a back story that beats Hollywood, its a smart business fight that will hype up well getting loads of media attention, cant blame them for taking it.

Only idiots will pay for it. If I'm not doing anything that night, I'll stream it illegally.

[HandsofIron]

They'll fight but once they see that the PPV buys are not selling, they'll probably cancel it.

The rematch is dumb, what Pacquiao should do is fight Mikey Garcia on EPSN or FS1 and Mayweather against one of the 147 young guns like Thurman, Spence or Crawford on PBC.

Pacquiao doesn't look shot by any means. When he looks shot, that's when we can say he looks shot.

When you put a shot ATG in with a shot B grader what do you think is going to happen.

Its easy to look good when matched right.

He just doesn't look shot to me. A shot fighter loses their snap and their reflexes first.

Pacquiao still has it.

When he looks shot, I'll admit he's shot.

Some guys are battleworn because they've been fighting for so long.

But some guys have been fighting so long it's the only thing they know how to do, and they don't know how to stop fighting.

Pacquiao is the latter. He's been fighting to survive since day one. He's made of steel. He's not just gonna get shot overnight.
