The rematch between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao is scheduled to take place over ten years after the first time they faced one other in 2015. Unfortunately, the potentially enormous announcement has not garnered much interest, despite the fact that it was revealed by ‘Pac Man’ during Rinzin’s New Year’s Eve celebration.
However, the announcement of the rematch was met with a deafening silence from those who were present, despite the fact that the initial meeting between the two fighters continues to hold the record for the highest-selling pay-per-view in the history of the sport.
One may argue that the absence of cheers and whistles during the Rinzin event could be due to the Japanese custom of being respectful and silent during sporting events and announcements. However, the same cannot be stated about the multitude of reactions that were posted on the internet.

When Floyd Mayweather credited Manny Pacquiao
In the annals of boxing, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao are two of the most accomplished competitors in the sport’s history. During the fight between the two legends that took place in 2015, “Money” emerged victorious with a comfortable victory by unanimous decision.
The 46-year-old, on the other hand, is of the opinion that “Pac Man” was the most formidable opponent he has ever faced. The former world champion made the following statement with regard to an episode of the MILLION DOLLAZ WORTH OF GAME:
The movement that Manny Pacquiao possesses makes him the most likely candidate for the title of best fighter that I have ever fought. The fact that he is going to be inducted into the Hall of Fame is not surprising to me since he is a heck of a fighter. I can understand why he won so many fights. It’s merely a matter of particular actions that he took.”
