Floyd Mayweather wasn't an undisputed champion in the welterweight division, he had all the belts except the IBF belt at that time because Kell Brook was the one holding it until he was defeated against Spence Jr. in 2016. But yes, Mayweather has many reasons at that time to make sure Manny Pacquiao won't have his chance for a rematch because Floyd knows that he won't be lucky anymore.

That's why having a rematch clause is really important especially for a big fight just like this one, an undisputed title is on the line together with the 4 belts. It will just end up like Mayweather-Pacquiao back in 2015.

Well, I don't know how many Mayweather fans are, but we all know what he did with Pacquiao, in boxing there should always be rematches, no matter how strong they are, they should exist, and I didn't like that time there was that fight where Mayweather seemed to be in A speed race in the ring, where you could only see a boxer and a rabbit running, where everything focused on the technical, where many were not left with a taste of the sport and above all very badly the judges, this is something that I did not like and I hope to never see a fight like this again, or by Pacquiao but by a boxer like Mayweather, and Mayweather fans excuse me, but it had to be said.

They already know about that fact and they cannot deny that their idol was once a marathon runner inside the boxing ring against a much older Manny Pacquiao and their fight was already called years earlier when Pacquiao was a bit younger but Mayweather didn't go along that discussion as he knew that a prime Pacquiao will definitely stain his record.

Yes, and that's what I don't like, because Mayweather clearly came across as a scaredy for me, and a scaredy isn't worthy of being a boxing champion, these things are what shouldn't be allowed, because if Mayweather wants to believe he's the best of all boxers should leave those fears and defend their titles every time a boxer challenges him, there is nothing better than a boxer being the challenger and whoever defends the title wins, because history can be written as that boxer who was never afraid nothing or no one, at least I have a very bad taste that Pacquiao has not had his well-deserved revenge for an initial fight that left me with many doubts.

They have the date of Nov 19 if I'm not mistaken, but it can be taken by anyone if they don't reach an agreement as early as November as there will be no time left to prepare.

I think that was only a tentative date, it's not official yet that's why we are still discussing on when they will make the official announcement. Some are saying this fight will push through this year, but until now there's still no announcement so I think we are losing patience here.

Well, I had also heard that tentatively that date is very likely to happen, and that's not bad, it's long before the start of the World Cup and it may be that this fight is an appetizer to what will be endless emotions at the end of the year, So that date is not so bad, if I would like it to be before the World Cup, because when the World Cup in Qatar starts it will be something from another world, and most people will have their attention monopolized only there, that does not mean that they will leave boxing to one side, but it will be more difficult to attract bettors, since the majority will be watching the football matches and that is if there will be bets.
