If there's no mayweather pacquiao fight, this is the best option for mayweather and Canelo.
154lb HBO PPV Tournament.
May 4, Mayweather vs K9, Canelo vs Zaurbek Baysangurov
September Winner vs Winner, Loser vs Loser.
If September is Mayweather Canelo, it breaks all time PPV and revenue record if set up like this. Ensures most money for both fights for all parties.
You're welcome Richard Schaefer.
Pretty good tourney if you're a 5 year old attempting to promote fights.
How about Broner vs Beltran.
Burns vs Murray.
Winners meet.
Forget about just making Broner vs Burns straight away, that is uncalled for. Let's do it Bob Arum style and involve the bottom, lesser known part of the Lightweight division. Let it "marinate".
all belts do is collect dust and make money in this format.
nobody needs to care about zaurbek or k9. they all the titles to make it a unification and give the illusion that these are tough competitive fights, when really, mayweather and canelo should tear them apart easily.
floyd vs k9 in a unification tournament sells more than floyd vs guerrero.
floyd vs canelo in a unification tournament in september for 4 junior middleweight belts, first fighter since Jermain Taylor to have all 4 belts, makes more than Mayweather vs Canelo now. Wayyyyyy more
only 154 lber floyd will fight is alvarez because it makes tons of $$$. the rest just don't bring in that much money. like floyd said, "all belts do is collect dust".
mayweather/guerrero happens first and then mayweather/alvarez in september.
bump - not deluded at all. him and zaurbek come cheap - little to no risk for floyd and canelo - floyd will make 40 million at least and take 0 risk, all off of the words "Unification tournament" and if something goes wrong and mayweather or canelo loses, just go ahead and say whoops tricked you, it wasnt really a tournament or delay the fight, theres numerous things to come up with. bottom line is that what makes dollars makes sense, and this more dollars for less risk than anything else mayweather and canelo can do.
One problem.
No one cares about Baysangurov or K-9. Especially for a PPV I mean cmon.

What's funny is that K9 is deluded enough to think it could happen.

Floyd doesn’t have a Tommy Hearns around to prove he’s the best but if he beats K9 that would be the biggest win of his career unless he fights Pacquiao and beats Pacquiao.”
the beauty of it is all 4 titles. "unification of all the belts" and "Tournament" will lead to my first fights selling close to 2 million in PPV. This would get boxing allover the mainstream news channels if Floyd took part in a "Tournament"
