    It most likely goes way longer and is more competitive than people expect again. Then we will get the "Pac carried him" excuses.

      Yes, deal has already been sent off to both parties. Just need both signatures. I think Conor has already signed on his behalf.

        I've see n many fighters perform at a high level after age 40 but the list isn't that big. I've never seen any after age 40 with the speed and legs of manny. He's still jumping in and out with a lot of spring in his step. He hasn't had to make major changes to his style, except now, and his experience and ring IQ really shows. He's still a lot quicker than most fighters with both hands and feet, and packs a hell of a punch.

          Dear boxing.... please do not allow this clown show to happen. You already make a mockery of this beautiful sport by bad judges, referees, matchups, and sometimes the promoters. Boxing is a beautiful game. One that fighters pour their blood sweat and tears into. There's fighters out there that have worked hard to get a shot at Pacquiao. Floyd was once a beast, one that fought the right fights to build his legacy. Then towards the end, he turned into a circus and started to lose a little bit of my respect. Berto, McGregor, it all came crashing down. Pacquiao.... you're a living legend. One who took on all challenges and became a global icon for doing so. Do not go down this same path. You're respected now, just old for the sport. Don't give in to the media demands and the side show. DO NOT FIGHT McGregor. Signed, boxing purist.

            Hoping all these ufc supporter's make the odds kinda a juicy to lay something on Manny knockout.

                McGregor will be durable while he's fresh and he's the much larger man. Pacquiao has also only won by KO once in over 10 years (16 fights)

                So I think it's unlikely to finish early. Manny will probably overwhelm Connor with volume in the second half of the fight to finish things. I'll be very surprised if things end like they did for Hatton

                  Connor was bigger than Floyd and much bigger than.pac. So might surprise you. Pac s a lot older than Floyd was also. And this is Connors 2nd fight in sure he learnt

                    If 170lb McGregor really wants to box why fight a 145lb guy? Don’t get me wrong will pac will win by mid RD tko but I would love to see McGregor fight a Charlo, Canelo so he would get his ass handed to him in one rd and never box again. I just wish he would stick to MMA as there are a lot of good fight there for him.

                      Manny Pacquiao against Connor McGregor, that's a bad joke. I hope that Manny picks the best boxers in order to close out his career with pride. Fighting Connor who is a ****y criminal, and emotional fool, is the wrong way to go with the final bouts of Manny's career. Don't follow in Floyd Mayweather Jr's footsteps, he's made money, but he's turning into a circus.
