    GBP and Showtime saying that Cherrypicker did over 1 million buys against Guerrero... so I don't think Cherrypicker feels like he needs the ginger... if the buys were less than 900k.... but Showtime needed 1.2 mil buys to break even so...

    That's cause he'll be forced to fight him, by SHO/GBP/Haymon, if there's any way, contractually.
    I hope there is but there probably isn't.

    Else this deal is a distaster for all, the money's gonna dry up for everyone else.
    bet GBP and Showtime are losing money already

    And the longer Floyd keeps putting it off, the scarier it's gonna get, unless Canelo is exposed along the way
    that's what Cherrypicker does... wait for his opponents to lose a step then fight them

IMO Mayweather is a great fighter but the only reason he's undefeated is because he doesn't take any risks. If you fight the best on even terms you will eventually loose.
      Worst kept secret that Floyd is adverse to taking risks. His risks are what we in the business call calculated risks and a lot of thought is gone into it, when in the mind of the fighter ie Floyd its not too much of a risk.

        Alvarez should do whatever it takes to get this fight. Take less money, fight at Mayweather's preferred weight, whatever it takes.

        Just get Mayweather in the ring.

            Back in 2009, Mayweather said Pacquiao will be easy work (first time using that phrase) and looking at him now, you just have to agree with that statement. He did this interview with the British press two months after his neutralizing performance against Marquez. This also before Pacquiao and Mayweather even started any negotiations to fight.. This is back in 2009. Everything Floyd says is the truth..

                i think its a joke if that fight gets made any time soon.

                if khan can get some decent wins under his belt first then fair play, but the thing is, khan is an accident waiting to happen every time he gets in the ring!

                but then again, it goes to show that the options mayweather has to choose from are running thin. he has to move up a weight if he wants better names on his resume other than fighting pacman.

                    you can make floyd look like a Monster in this fight. I'd take the fight and end that **** in 2 minutes if I were him.

                    Imagine Khan caught mayweather and dropped him, or even beat him lol

                      While his options are running thin, there are at least 10 other fighters currently that deserve a fight with Floyd over Amir, if this fight gets made its pushing Baldomir territory of cherry picking
