    I actually forgot about that.

    That didn't come out of the fight earnings for Top Rank, though...

      I can see it now. Khan will fight and beat Marquez. Ricky Hatton returns, Khan fights Hatton in UK mega fight. Khan beats faded Hatton. Meanwhile the rest of the 140 pounders are fighting eachother. Khan fights Floyd in the UK!

        cornelius bundrage, mathew hatton, alfonso gomez, and a fight with the undefeated lucas martin matthysee are on the schedule and if erik morales plays his cards right and calls out mayweather we could get another superfight to cap off an unforgettable career.

            Haymon would be in the way of that...

              The Illuminati has set things in motion for Kahn and Floyd in 2012.

                  I'm not even sure the Mayweather's could refurbish Ghana.

So that sure as hell means that Sergio Martinez, Paul Williams, Andre Berto, Timothy Bradley are definitely out of the picture. They do not generate enough interests and money to create a massive return.

                    So who will be Floyd's opponents? Pacquiao is a given. But who else?
                    Probably 2 fights against Pacquiao(if the first one is close enough which I doubt). And then...Probably Khan in the UK. Canelo in 2012. Cotto is a possibility in 2011.
