Will Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor 2 happen? Can Deontay Wilder fight for a title — again?


Five years have passed since Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor met in the ring, in what was one of the most lucrative boxing fights in history. And now, we are talking about a possible rematch. While it looks like a long shot at the moment, there was a time when we thought the same thing prior to their first meeting in the ring.

Another fight boxing fans thought was never going to happen was Canelo Alvarez-Gennadiy Golovkin 3. But both sides were able to come to an agreement to make it happen, and Alvarez kept his super middleweight belts with a decision victory. Can GGG still compete at a championship level?

Jake Paul returns to face another former MMA champion, Anderson Silva. Can he do to Silva what he did to Tyron Woodley — twice — in what could be his biggest test yet?

Mike Coppinger, Ben Baby, Nick Parkinson, Marc Raimondi and Jeff Wagenheim explore these topics and share their thoughts.


Will we ever see a Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor rematch? Do we want to?

I never thought the first one would happen, and it still feels ridiculous even in retrospect that Mayweather and McGregor faced off in boxing in 2017. So, I’ll never say never to a rematch happening one day down the line. As long as there are enough people who will buy it — and there are, courtesy of Mayweather and McGregor being giant stars — it could always be an option for them. Tens of millions would be made by both, surely. It could certainly happen again.

With that being said, I…
