That is actually my first reaction when I heard on the news that Manny Pacquiao is in negotiation for an exhibition match. I thought if he lost a lot of money in the election campaign he needs to fight again. I hope it is not because he is already a millionaire, and he does not need to fight just for money. If it is for charity like everyone is saying above, then I guess it is for a good cause. I think there are still a lot of fans who want to watch Manny fight even just to see a glimpse of his previous glory.

Well, he doesn't really need the money from those Exhibition matches but if it goes to charity then I will be truly delighted Manny Pacquiao really doesn't need to fight anymore he can give to charity because right now he got a lot of business, a gym, tv commercials, Guesting, even an internet sensation, he can do anything because of his fame, but surely I think he missed the way he goes on the ring so much that is why he allowed this exhibition matches,

I agree, Manny always gives funds to charity via his own pocket. Often times he offers help and does not need to ask someone for funding, unlike those media company who always ask for a donation and claim the charity donations as theirs.

But of course, it is always better to have funding outside the riches we have and I think Manny also thinks the same. The exhibition match doesn't only give him the opportunity to showcase his skills, entertain his fans, and play the sports he is always fond of, but he can also gather extra funding for his charity projects. It is like hitting multiple birds in one stone.

Oh well, it just shows Mayweather is not after the legacy or what not. He is definitely after the money, and he can't blame him, up to this day he can still better performance because throughout his career, he wasn't hit like other boxers and that's why you will hear him saying, health comes first.

So he can have as many exhibitions fight as he wanted, make millions out of it in matter of minutes and then go to the bank laughing when cashing it out. But I guess he will not get the respect of some old and former boxers.

I don't think he needs those respect and approval from old and former boxers. He is already a legend and One of the best boxers in his era or possibly in the entire boxing history. Those who frowned his exhibition match doesn't have the say on the event because they can just skip and not watch it if they are not interested.
