    They'll try to play the "Manny's shoulder affected the outcome" card in order to sell it. Definitely won't be$ 100. Likely 75 Fazools.

    Reading fanfare about how much money these fighters will milk us for.. as a reason to want it to happen again


    ...


    Is like hearing two johns hoping there will be another hookers convention because of all the money the hoes will make.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    I didnt think Pac looked great against Bradley but he won easy so hes clearly still a top guy in the division. I dont think he should retire. Id love to see him fight Khan or Crawford (the same people Id love to see Floyd fight) but dont see either going for those fights. Roach was talking about Pac fighting Canelo. I know its massive money but Im not really keen on that for some reason.

    I wouldnt be against a Pac Floyd rematch but wouldnt be paying PPV for it

    Money talks. Between these two divas it yells through a bullhorn then beats us over the head with it. It won't be the 'fans' in the know they again market it to it will be the casual fans who actually thought that fight happened when it needed to. But the division doesn't need it and I hope they both stay 'retired'.

    The different shoulders, different percentages, same Nevada rules, same styles, same entertainment value is the same same... As long as only one guy wants to fight and the other "entertain/be chased/ pot shot and hold", nothings changed. Mind as well put abraham vs. Dirrell 2 and broner vs porter 2 on the under card.

    For the sake of argument, lets say that manny's shoulder is 200% what it was in the first fight, the only thing it means is floyd would clinch him up twice as much.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Its on. Jersey City sources claim an Atlantic City bout is secretly being negotiated for October.

    This fight will not happen. Think about it, how many people do you know or that write on here actually want to see a rematch?
    Put that against how many DON'T want to see it?
    The TV people aren't stupid, and Floyd and Manny won't take too much of a pay cut, in fact I don't think Floyd would take any less.

    The prospect of a rematch between those two does not enamour me one iota.

    For starters, the first fight took over 6 years to come to fruition, so how long would we have to wait for a rematch?

    The two of them would be featuring in Stannah Stairlift adverts by the time a rematch is organised.
