    and I really hope 3 of those 5 fights are:

    Mayweather
    Bradley
    Martinez

      3 years? great news.

      He needs to slow down though if he wants that longetivity and remain in his prime. A tune up or two is needed, he can't keep fighting at the pace he does and wars he has without it effecting him. Mayweather I can see lasting 3 years easily, Pac not so much.

        This will make the Mosley fight an easier pill to swallow. Let's say he takes Mosley as a tune-up (this just sounds crazy as I never thought I'd ever label him that)......if he fight Mayweather then gives us two more years....then I can accept that.

              yes I think this might happen ....

              I was okey with 3 more fights but I think he will milk everything that he can get from boxing while waiting for mayweather, then retire ...

                  He already cleaned out the welterweight division so 3 more years at 2 fights a year sounds about right. I wanna see the winner of

                  Bradley/ Alexander
                  Mayweather
                  Khan
                  Mosley
                  Berto
                  Maybe Saul Alverez if he can weight 147

                    lol yeah by not fighting or going on extended vacation. Mayweather already looked like he lost his legs v Mosley.

                    Anyways, this is great news for the sport. Love watching Pac fight, the goat.

                      Does congress allow four month vacations each year? I bet he'll be texting his staff while working on footwork.
