Let us take a closer look at the rivalry and see if there’s still scope for Pacquiao to face off for one last time against Floyd “The Money” Mayweather.

Mayweather vs Pacquiao Rematch Still Possible?

Pacquiao and Keith Thurman were expected to face off against each other in July. However, there’s a good chance that this match might be called off because Pacquiao, who is a politician in The Philippines as well as a national icon, will be busy with political campaigns around that time. Given that he would be on a limited schedule, it is unlikely that he will face Thurman.
