Who the hell wants a Floyd Mayweather–Manny Pacquiao rematch? Sugar Ray Leonard does … and according to the boxing legend, so do fight fans.
TMZ Sports talked to Leonard — one of the greatest fighters of all-time — from the Cedric The Entertainer Celebrity Golf Classic in Camarillo, CA … and we asked him if MayPac 2 should really be a thing.
Leonard’s answer … most definitely, yes.
“It’d be a great fight. Put it this way, it should be done.”
“People will watch it.”
Remember, Floyd and Manny’s 2015 fight — billed as the “Fight of the Century” — was considered by most a major disappointment … but MP later revealed he was battling a serious shoulder injury that held him back during the fight.
Manny — who’s now 40 years old — beat previously undefeated fighter Keith Thurman last month … and looked great during the match.
Pacquiao and his trainer, Freddie Roach, haven’t been shy about wanting a rematch … and if Sugar Ray’s right, fans are willing to pay to watch it again.
BTW, Cedric’s golf tourney promotes a great cause … raising money for Kyles’ Family Foundation which benefits the Boys & Girls Club of Camarillo.
