    Why don't Wlad just fight the best 2 weight classes below him?

    Wladimir Klitschko v Chad Dawson July 18th?

      What do you mean GBP wont give him more, trust me Floyd would get more than 60% or the PPV percentage will be heavily swung in his favor.

            It looks as if Floyd Mayweather Jr could be fighting Juan Manuel Marquez on July 18. According to a report out by ESPN, parties representing Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez are negotiating a bout between the two fighters.

            Richard Schaefer, who is the CEO for Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, who represent Marquez, confirmed to ESPN that they are working on the bout. Schaefer provided no further details.

            Another source, not named, tells ESPN that Mayweather Jr's return would be on July 18, not July 11 as first reported. The reason for the change of date is due in part because of UFC 100 which will air on July 11. That is a Pay-Per-View event they do not want to compete against.

            Also reported, Mayweather Jr. could fight an easier foe before Marquez.

                  Wrong! Since P. Will started at middleweight his fifth class would actually be Heavyweight. You still there?

                    You're picking I see. Those are my predictions, what are yours? And which part of the 60%+ did you miss?

                      Doesnt make any sense what you just said. You mean without Floyd those fighters dont draw like they could otherwise. Dont let hate blind you.
