Longtime boxing sensation, Manny Pacquiao, has jumped into the McGregor-Mayweather conversation, as he admitted to the media that he would open to fighting UFC’s golden boy if his bout with longtime rival, Floyd Mayweather Jr., doesn’t come to fruition. Just like Mayweather, Pac-Man is only interested in a boxing match, rather than MMA. “In boxing? In boxing [I would fight McGregor] but not in [UFC], just boxing,” Pacquiao said to FOX Sports. Manny continued to state that McGregor wouldn’t have a chance against Floyd if they decided to fight with boxing gloves. “I didn’t see [footage of Conor sparring]. But if we are talking about Conor McGregor and boxing, it’s different. Boxing is different than MMA.”
