I was looking for future possible fights in boxing where I can bet and stumble upon this news. apparently, both side has been in talks of possible fights between Pacquiao and McGreggor.
I am a huge fan of boxing and seeing great boxing fighters with decades of experience fighting amateurs(yes, consider McGregor an amateur at least in the boxing world) is really disappointing and is derogatory to the sport. but I'd still watch the fight though. can't pass a Pacquiao fight especially when he can retire at any moment now due to his age.

“So I am excited for a Manny Pacquiao bout, and it’s looking like it will take place this year. What time this year, I’m not sure. We’re going to have to have some good discussions with Dana after (UFC 257) and see where it goes,” Conor added."

I also have heard about news that they were Pacquiao was expecting to fight McGregor EVEN before fighting Mayweather. This much is gonna be better than his fight with Mayweather. Both are exceptionally talented and they have proper respect against each other. They should also talk about the type of match that they will be having so that it could cater a lot of sponsors because some of the previous charity matches are really just matches that just occurred for the fun of it but having to watch Pacquiao and McGregor fight with high stakes, then we should really see some pretty good match.
