BOXING CLEVER COLUMN Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao first fought in 2015 but, ten years later, rumours of a rematch remain on the cards

In the period between Mayweather's wins over Berto and McGregor, Pacquiao returned from injury, beat Bradley in a 2016 rubber match, retired and came back before the end of the year to beat Jessie Vargas and win the WBO welterweight title for a third time.

This is proven by Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr., who has competed in a total of eight exhibition bouts since his last professional fight, which came against Conor McGregor when Mayweather was 40 years old in 2017. While no winners were declared in these exhibition bouts, Mayweather certainly didn't make a fool of himself or look too far gone.
