Honestly what is Floyd and Showtime going to do? Is Showtime and the Floyd camp just hoping and praying that Canelo wins? I don't see Floyd fighting Trout if Trout wins. And Golden Boy says they are doing a little 140 lb tourney with the winner fighting Khan. Doesn't that only leave Floyd with the winner of Alexander/Brook? Would anybody want to see that?
So realistically what is the plan here?
Anything other than the winner of Canelo vs Trout isn't doing much to push Showtime's PPV biz. Hell, I've seen more coverage on Guerrero's arrest than the actual fight.
Fall 2013: Alexander
Spring 2014: Canelo
Fall 2014: Winner of 140 LB tournament
After that its whoever gets on a hot streak. There will always be a good fight out there for him. The boxing landscape changes every week.
Guerrero, Alvarez.......then what?
Trout, I can't see him fighting if Austin beats Saul.
Martinez is never, ever ever happening, not sure why people continue to even talk about it.
Brook/Alexander, Garcia, Khan, Peterson....really?
Oh well. I guess that what happens when you decide to become active again when WW is in a terrible state as a division.
Hes a WW. What weight class should he be fighting at?

why don't you see him fighting trout if he wins? To scared? I know you don't believe Floyd will fight Canelo if he wins. That won't happen. Floyd only fights guys he knows he can beat bro. History proves that. If you're a threat he's on vacation or using 1 of the many reasons in his excuse book....
Floyd's plan:
1. Guerrero
2. Alexander
3. Khan
4. PEDerson
5. matthysse
6. Garcia
then Floyd retires
Showtime just got bamboozled for a sh-it laid of cash
Thats assuming that Devon gets past brook. He may face the winner out of pederson v matthysse doubt he fights the loser. Im guessing he would rather PED win cause of his back ground story in hyping the fight. If danny keeps winning I guess that could be an option.
How long is Bradleys contract with top rank? When thats up i guess he could be an option.
If Pac/Marquez is really going to happen in September, Floyd has to fight Canelo. No other fight can compete with that one.
If Canelo loses, I wouldn't be surprised if he fights Amir Khan.
Maybe if showtime approve of it. The only fight im interested in seeing is maywether v canelo. GGG and Martinez both said they can make 154 but there is no way mayweather fights either of them. Mayweather struggles to make 154 and both those guys would out weight him by alot.
I dont even know how them other names on the list would sell. Angulo? Devon? not really exctiting. Not too many interesting names out there for may to fight that will grab the publics attention.
Doesn't that only leave Floyd with the winner of Alexander/Brook? Would anybody want to see that?
If Brook wins the title, Hearn will put him in a couple of easy fights to hype him up and he could maybe get the Mayweather shot late this year.

None of those opponents really do anything for me. Floyd really doesn't have much out there that I think a lot of people are really interested in seeing. I'd like to see him fight Martinez @ 154lbs but that won't happen.
The showtime deal has an out after the ghost fight. If he exercises the out he can go back to hbo or figght again at ahowtime. Until he makes the decision its hard to determine what he will do.
I didnt know that. Thats pretty interesting. Does it also mean that Showtime have an out if mayweather were to lose or do bad numbers?
