Floyd's PPV failing would be the best thing for boxing right now!

[Mister Wolf]

Peterson, Matthysee, or Bradley would be a good fight for Floyd. Going by the Judah fight i think Garcia is still to green to fight Floyd.

It's not a mismatch.Floyd is a huge favorite but The Ghost is the nr 1 contender at welteweight.

So who are the top notch quality opponents the Canelo has faced?

Let me rephrase.... which 1 top notch quality opponent has Canelo faced?

Trout - solid up and coming fighter but not world class and not pfp
Mosely - beyond his prime before he fought Money
Lopez - dude just came up from 140... wtf.
Cintron, Gomez, Hatton,.... give me a break...

What the F.... has Canelo done to deserve a fight with Floyd!

God all you so called boxing fans are exhausting...

Your so quick to move Mayweather up to fight Canelo... so why cant Canelo move up to fight Chavez Jr., Martinez, Quillin, Golovkin....?

Why wont Canelo call out these guys?

ironically canelos last 2 opponents beated floyds last 2 opponents , when you think of ortiz, cotto and guerrero as a better competition for mayweather than canelo then something must be wrong... anyways canelo sayd last year he wanted martinez, martinez team cameback with roadblocks...
canelo brings more money to the table than any opponent right now, so he deserves the fight, if not your idol needs another nickname...

Floyd will fight Canelo eventually regardless of what this PPV does.

Yes. Golden Boy was smart to have Canelo star in his own main event. Let him keep building up that fan base. Raise his stock a little more.

Canelo can get it next if his fans demand it. Without Bob Arum and other fight-stopping hangers on in the way, the fight can get done.

That was not Golden Boys decision. It was Canelo who made that call against GB's wishes. GB knows this weekends PPV needed Canelo to help with buys.

Just because a young Canelo ASKS for the fight doesn't mean he gets or deserves the fight...

Someday soon Canelo will take over as The Man.... calling the shots.

But that is for Floyd to decide..... just like it was De La Hoya's call when he fought Floyd.

Oscar called the time, the weight, the glove size, the ring size, the purse.... everything!

Floyd recognized the opportunity and conceded to Oscar's demands to secure the fight.

I don't want to hear any crying from Canelo fans when the opportunity presents itself and Canelo must give in to Floyds demands.

Unlike Canelo..... Floyd has earned that right.!

I agree with the TS and his opening post. Of course Floyd *** riders are going to say he is hating an Floyd haters will agree so *** it call me a hater but as a hater I say this PPV will do over a mili buys and if Floyd fights Canelo in Sept he murks the ginger.

[tacoboxer]

..........$30 mill guarantee for Floyd.... $3 mill for Ghost (3 times the amount he earned against Berto)....

I'm calling my shot......... this fight sells over 1 Mill ppv buys.... Mayweather clears over $50 Million in this fight alone....

Betting all my 67K points on it..... any takers?

Nailed it fellas.... Turns out floyd retains 90% of the profit!

I'm not a fan of Floyd's persona but I will definitely tune in and pay to watch him as long as its against a legit opponent. I will not pay for Guerrero nor will I pay to watch him fight someone like Alexander. I respect his skills but unlike his fanboys, I want to see him in the most challenging fights possible. I can care less about what's financially beneficial to him. I'm a fan of the sport. Not his accountant.

Excellent post! I never understood why people come on here and care and brag about how much money he's making per fight and how many buys as if its beneficial in some way to them , and get offended and defensive about it.

I love boxing and have been watching and paying for PPV's for over 20 yrs, but at this point in his career I'm not paying $60 to watch him fight the Guerreo's or Alexander's or the B rate fighters. Nothing against Guererro but this fight is not worth that kinda money.

I would gladly pay to watch him fight Pacquiao when we were all calling for it or Canelo now . He's been getting rich off protecting his 0 instead of defending it and its the fans that are not getting the fights they want to see.
