    to think, if Kell Brook actually fought known fighters, maybe ones in the top ten (ok, Carson..but i mean established names). He might of been in with a shout.

      you nor I know any details about the April fight. It may be set in stone just not announced. Or it may be just a smoke screen. SO obviously we need more info. I tend to think its set in stone like the Marg fight was, but I'm a floyd fan and a Bob hater.

      No, I dont think manny will just opt out of the APril fight because its not HIS fight, its TR's.

I want him to fight way more challenges, that's why i love Ali so much, prime and non-prime Ali fought everybody...
          Can we at least acknowledge its a completely different world right now. Ali fought during the golden age of HWT's at a time when boxing was maybe the 2nd biggest sport in the US behind baseball.

            I couldn't care less if he fights the Ghost. I won't spend a dime
            for it anyway.

            I agree 100%. If Floyd fights for money like he says he does, then the fight to make outside of Pacquiao is Canelo.

                Pac said "no" to a 50-50 fight and has refused every other offer Floyd has given since saying "no" to a FAIR 50-50 fight. Not to mention Bob won't cash out until it is Pac's VERY last fight anyway.

                Martinez is recovering from surgery. You know the excuse will be that Floyd fought an injured Martinez who's 187 years old. I see Martinez vs Chavez Jr II happening first.

                Everyone wants Alvarez vs Cotto (assuming Cotto beats Trout) with the winner getting Mayweather

                Meanwhile as much as I don't care for the fight, Guerrero is the best option IF and I say IF people want Cotto Alvarez first.

                We know Mayweather Bradley won't happen because of Bob.

                At WW/JMW NOBODY is great enough to beat Floyd so no matter who it is, people are going to b*tch about it. We have to talk about MW guys when talking about someone beating Mayweather or at least being the favorite.

                  But the elite boxers now are getting paid 100xmore than what the likes of Ali was getting during their time, with or without inflation Floyd still earns way too much bigger than Ali did... So don't you think these elite boxers owes us big boxing fans the fights that we want... Boxing maybe is not as big now as before during the time of the golden age, but on certain fights that involves the elite fighters, boxing still commands very high viewership..
