          That would be the biggest joke and final straw to kill Floyd's career forever...terrible idea

            I agree, but his fans support anything he does... or doesn't do.

            But think about it, what 'name' opponents are left that have name value?

              I know...I dread the thought of this being his BIG name opponent. Ricky "the pubster" Fatton with over a year layoff, no motivation, and no tune up. Only his brother possibly could draw something close in England but that is a joke match too. I can hear the poster raving about this fight too....I'd Molotov Floyd's mansion if he fought Ricky again.

                If he does fight in Dubai, no other opponent could sell outside of Hatton (or Pac obv) for Floyd. I bet the fight will be in the UK though, which has been the plan (both Floyd and Schaefer are on record about this) for about 3 years now.

                And you might waste a trip throwing a molotov at the big boy mansion, he'd flee the country to fight Ricky for big $ in the UK

                  what does Roach have to do with promoting or managing either of these fighters?

                  Roach has 0 say in this matter. The money for a Floyd/Khan fight right now would be sick....better than floyd/jmm. Also, it would be a fight Khan is "supposed" to lose, so Roach loses nothing. Plus Floyd can win, and if Khan has a good performance...his stock SKYROCKETS to the very top.

                  it's a logical business move. Khan gets a fraction from BEATING Maidana compared to a close loss to Floyd Mayweather. Not only that, imagine Maidana beats Khan. That's promotional suicide.


                  In short....a Khan/Mayweather is absolutely perfect in terms of money.

                  - they sell 1m+ PPV's
                  - Mayweather gets 60% or more, and makes damn near $20m without having to fight Pac.
                  - GBP gets a nice cut.
                  - Khan's stock skyrockets for years to come.

                    One of the Peterson brothers. He'll claim its about giving unknown fighters a chance.
