Floyd Mayweather Jr. already buried the chances that he might face Manny Pacquiao again even if it will be in massive demand by the community.

He mentioned that he already had a hard fight in his life and all he will do now is purely for entertainment and fun.

It looks like Mayweather Jr. acknowledge that he will have a hell of a fight if he gave an opportunity to a rematch against Manny Pacquiao.  Honestly I have seen Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao's fight in slow motion version(can't find the link of that yt video now), and it was clearly shown that almost all the punches that the judges thinks that clearly hit Manny are blocked by Manny's gloves instead.  The reflex reaction of Manny in blocking and evading Mayweather's punches are superb during their match but I think it was too fast for the old judges to see them clearly  Grin.

It does mean that even in the exhibition matches, we will no longer see "The Money" fighting a real boxer within his league which does make sense after all. Those who will be annoyed at his exhibition match should just accept that Floyd is just making big money even in retirement.

Who knows, since Mayweather Jr. is a businessman, he might change his mind and think of fighting Manny in an exhibition match.  Money can change any decision when an opportunity opens up.  Besides they can do whatever they agreed upon even having an agreed script on how they will play the match.
