Comments Thread For: Mayweather CEO Embraces Conor McGregor's Talk of Rematch

[CaptainWalrus]

The fight would sell right now. I guess it depends on how Mcgregor's MMA run goes this year????

[fistic flow]

Everything that's wrong with boxing encapsulated in that headline.

Who can understand the mind of a boxer? To still be thinking of a comeback when you made more over the decade than any other athlete, retired undefeated, and have a successful promotional company that seems to be doing all the work of PBC fighters. It's ridiculous. I'm a Floyd fan but I'm done paying for any more of his PPVs. As far as I'm concerned, his time is over.

[MEXICAN STYLE]

I'm saying he would be able to land on Pac where as Floyd will use the turtle shell again something he isn't a good enough boxer to deal with. Mcgregor has fought at 170 with guys rehydrating even more after the weigh in. Do you really think he would be scared of Pac. You probably think Pac hits harder than a middleweight or light heavy in UFC.

Floyd is pillow-fisted once his hands were damaged so Pacquiao would destroy Conor before the 10th just to stunt on Mayweather / throw bait for a rematch

Mayweather should tell him, you had your chance, if I come back it will be for Terence Crawford ONLY.

It can happen maybe at 160 pounds in 2020?!

Conor McGregor says negotiations with Manny Pacquiao are ‘close,’ vows to get boxing title

January 14, 2019:

“I would be open to other boxing bouts. You know, Manny (Pacquiao). We’re actually close to signing Manny,” McGregor told Ariel Helwani. “There’s been talks about the Manny fight as well. There’s been an offer made on (a bout against Pacquiao).

“There’s just negotiations going on,” he explained.

McGregor then reiterated that he wants other bouts and claims he will one day hold boxing gold.

“Just not yet,” McGregor said on why the Pacquiao fight hasn’t pushed through. “Very much so (it’s a possibility). And then the Paulie (Malignaggi) fight. I’d like to box Paulie. Why not? That’s a bit of buzz as well.

“I want to box again. I will box again. I will get a boxing world title.”

Are trying to say that at 154 Mcgregor would have a chance ??? That’s the biggest “LOL” !! Don’t compare Thurman or Margarito to that novice. Mcgregor could request this fight at 175 and he would still catch a beating. He looked like a kid on his 3rd day at the boxing gym when he fought Mayweather, not to mention his pillow hands.

I will pay to see Connor vs Pacman at 160 pounds and Connor vs Floyd at 175 pounds.

Yes fight Paulie at 160 pounds and if you win Pacman is next at 160 pounds also and just wonder if Floyd would fight you at 160 pounds!

[Patsfan bri]

God please, no rematch between these two. If McGregor does box again let’s put him in against Canelo, , charlo, someone of that nature so they can knock him the fook out and he never steps into a boxing ring again.

[UNBANNED]

Mayweather should tell him, you had your chance, if I come back it will be for Terence Crawford ONLY.

Floyd wont risk losing though

And the Conor fight will make a quarter what it did. Conor is no longer "the guy" in UFC and Floyd's fame has even waned.


Yes there is still a void in boxing, but fans are acclimating to the new changes. ESPN+ and DAZN are the future and they should be WELCOME...saves us money! Plus we can rewatch fights in HD as opposed to watching once for $80 and then never have access again...pass
