    to be fair, mayweather zips around on a segway, he doesn't run around.

      i get the felling Anne Wolfe could beat down James Kirkland. She may have been also.

      When i saw how she was making James live in that tiny shed like a pitbull i cant help but felt disturbed. They really take their training to a whole different level. very very oldschool style.

      It reminded me of the scene in Rocky 2 i believe. When Apollo brought Rocky into one of the gyms, and it showed a bunch of young hungry fighters in terrible training conditions.

        I would be a decent fight.

        But, it simply won't appeal to a mass audience and won't really sell.

        So I can't see it happening.

        I think Golden Boy are aiming to get Canelo a belt and put him in there with Mayweather.

          Why wouldn't it be appealing? Explain why? Except for the De La Hoya fight, all of Mayweather's PPVs tend to sell around the same.

          I think all the same people who watch Mayweather fights would watch Mayweather-Kirkland. And the prefight would be more entertaining than most, which couldn't hurt.

            You really think so? I think Mayweather would completely destroy Kirkland and probably stop him within 8. Kirkland is just so astonishingly easy to hit, like laughably so, and with Mayweather's accuracy I just don't see this being much of a contest.

              Kirkland is more open than a ****star's legs.... kirklands going to get KO'd worse than when Ishida floored him.

                    ******, ****** fight. You guys rip on Pac for fighting guys like Cotto and Margarito but for a fight like this? Floyd would destroy this dude, offensively AND defensively. Kirkland would get KO'ed again, no matter how hard Ann Wolfe trains him.

                      There's nothing ****** about it.

                      Kirkland just demolished the top rated WBC junior middleweight contender. He's got a style that would mesh well with Mayweather's style and provide fans with an entertaining bout -- much moreso than Andre Berto or Devon Alexander, who are frontrunners for a Mayweather fight.

                      Nobody is going to outbox Mayweather. You're going to have to get him into a war of attrition. Kirkland can do that. Berto won't. Alexander won't. Spadafora won't. Morales won't. Ricky Hatton's brother won't.

                      And it can easily be made.
