Floyd Mayweather‘s father tells TMZ Sports he’s “pretty sure” his son is down for the rematch with Manny Pacquiao … and he’s warning PacMan that TBE will “kick his ass” again!!!
“I’m pretty sure that they gonna fight,” Floyd Sr. told us on the way into the Beverly Wilshire hotel … “If Pacquiao says he wants to fight, I’m pretty sure they’re gonna fight again.”
Floyd Sr. would know … he’s pretty tight with his son. In fact, Floyd Jr. gave a heartfelt speech at his father’s Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame induction earlier this month.
And, Fun Fact — Floyd Sr. was his son’s trainer for the first Pacquiao fight back in 2015, a fight Floyd easily won.
Speaking of Manny, he called out Floyd on social media after he beat up Keith Thurman back in July … telling Floyd, “If you want to be relevant again #MayPac2.”
Manny looked VERY impressive in his victory over Thurman — but Floyd Sr. says he ain’t worried about the 40-year-old Filipino superstar.
“Man, my son will kick his ass the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th [time]!!!”
Only one way to find out …
By the way, Floyd Sr. is also helping to promote other fights … he was at the Beverly Wilshire to spread the word about the October 12th GBO World Heavyweight title fight between Ronald Johnson and Sergio Ramirez.
