Their rivalry and eventual fight in 2015 were one of the most anticipated and lucrative bouts in boxing history. Furthermore, Mayweather, often referred to as “Money,” is an American professional boxer, and Pacquiao is a Filipino professional boxer.

Furthermore, the bout is known as the “Fight of the Century” because of its popularity, and no one can dispute its authenticity.

Both fighters had very unique skill sets and abilities, which the latter did not have before their retirement from boxing. Pacquiao is known for his incredible speed, power, and versatility.

Fans react to Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao’s training
The resurfaced video shows Mayweather instructing his son, Koraun Mayweather, in the fundamentals of boxing. Simultaneously, Pacquiao holds the pads for his son, Jimeul Pacquiao, who attempts various combinations. Koraun Mayweather is more interested in music than boxing and has a YouTube channel dedicated to his music.
Subsequently, Pacquiao’s son Jimeul has not begun his professional boxing career but is currently an amateur boxer. Hence, there is a clear distinction between the two in terms of their boxing skills because of their passions.
Fans have reacted to the clip by pointing out how Pacquaio’s son is far better than Mayweather’s son. Furthermore, people anticipated how the match between the legend’s sons would be interesting.
