Mayweather May Possibily Give Pacman A Rematch
Despite Pacquiao being expected to miss anywhere between four and 12 months due to shoulder surgery, per Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times and Dan Rafael of ESPN.com, Mayweather reportedly texted ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith on Tuesday stating he would be willing to fight Pac-Man again when he’s healthy, perSportsCenter on Twitter.
Given the definitive nature of Mayweather’s win in the first fight, some fans might be asking why a rematch is necessary at all. Mayweather landed more punches and had Pacquiao chasing shadows as he danced around the ring.
However, Pacquiao planted the tiniest seed of doubt regarding his performance after revealing that the shoulder injury limited him in the ring.
Mayweather Plans To Vacate All Of His Titles
After defeating Manny Pacquiao via unanimous decision in a welterweight title unification bout Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Mayweather (48-0, 26 KOs) casually mentioned he would vacate the world titles he currently holds on Monday. Mayweather, 38, entered Saturday with two titles already at 147 pounds and two more at 154 pounds.
Pressed on why he would willingly forfeit the titles, Mayweather said he wanted to give other athletes a chance to hold one.
“I don’t know if it will be Monday or maybe a couple weeks,” Mayweather said. “I’ll talk to my team and see what we need to do. Other fighters need a chance. Give other fighters a chance. I’m not greedy.
“I’m a world champion in two different weight classes. It’s time to let other fighters fight for the belt.”
