    I want NSB to simply acknowledge that Floyd Mayweather was just better than him from the jump.
    I can honestly see Manny having big problems with McGregor. Styles make fights and Manny isn't the defensive boxer Mayweather is. It could end bad for him IMO

        Dude. So you saw Pacquiao just beat a 29-0 Keith Thurman, the WBA welterweight champion of the world, but you think an 0-1 novice is going to possibly end Manny Pacquiao "badly"?

            You need 4 billion philippine pesos to win a presidential election in the Philippines.

            4 billion pesos = $80 million

            McGregor will basically pay for Pacquiao to become President.

              I mean it takes more than just the funds but yeah. It's not like Manny would have trouble raising that kinda money anyways he lives like a king in the Philippines. This certainly wouldn't hurt to further pad his retirement though.

              After all the wars and entertainment he's given us, he deserves it. I know it's not a real fight and I don't care. I rather Manny knock McGregors block off and make $100 million rather than one of these young guns beating him down and springboarding off his name. Earn it the way Manny did

                This is Manny's way of saying, I don't want a real fight, just pay me to dance with a clown! Total garbage!!

                  Honestly, as a Pac fan, I'll have zero excitement for this fight than if he fought a real boxer. Especially knowing that even Floyd beat him. I'd take Pac fighting Jessie Vargas again over McGregor. Sucks but you know, ultimately, boxing can be put into the same perspective as if you made a big career move at your own job that will get you a big raise or paycheck. Once these guys have proved their worth and done it all, why risk it? If they're in the position to make big bucks making easy fights, I guess that is the route they'd rather take. I'm not all for it, but I'm not the guy putting my health on the line each time.

                  I gave Fraud Jr. shieeet for doing this fight, and as Pac fan, I'd do the same. It doesn't stop me appreciating all Pac has done for the sport and his career as a whole, but it is a weak option overall. I'm just not sure I should be expecting a 41-42 yr old Pac facing the likes of Spence or Crawford either. Is that a fan who cares about his favorite fighter's well being?

                    I know, but the MMA fans seem to be too clueless to appreciate the size advantage Connor has

                      While I would agree that it is a farce -- Floyd did it, so why can't Manny?
