Team Matthysse "Matthysse vs Garcia on sept 14"

[DoktorSleepless]

I would have preferred it was on his own date so I didn't have to buy the the PPV.

If Tim Bradley beats JMM then he is also an attractive opponent for Floyd.

Bradley??? The guy that is with Bob Arum? Good luck with that.

[4Corners]

He may not be by May. His contract is almost up. He could be free in time. Not likely, but possible.

Maybe it was just a 2 year contract, if so he'd be up in November. It could happen. I wouldn't mind Bradley on bit if he beat Marquez. But I'm guessing he'll stick with Top Rank for the Manny rematch if he beats Marquez.

guerrero is mexican american though seeing as most mexicans love boxing, that match up was going to get them exicited. I'm not sure that alexander would have the same effect.

while khan's advantages and weakness makes it interesting, he's damaged goods i just don't think it's that appealing a fight to the masses. in america atleast.

Mayweather has a short list of opponents he could put on a PPV though.
Shoot, Khan is a stronger option than Devon. Devon isn't an appealing fighter to watch unless he fights like he did against Purdy.
If he fights like he does in Maidana and Bailey... people will never watch him.

Khan, it's just a matter of his name.
And the kid has speed still and a lot of heart. That always makes for a good fight.
He'll most likely lose, but I'd tune in for the harlem shake.

Umm huh? I knew this fight would get done. Doesn't change the fact that ****** boy is scared ****less tho.

Its because you removed that damn fight poster in your sig it was jinxing the fight from happening

The only other thing that's possible is Floyd fights the Khan/Alexander winner, which would be a legit fight at that point but not better than the winner of this fight. The only reason I would think they'd wait after having this co-headline the PPV is because they want the eventual winner of Lucas-Danny to get a fight at 147 first against Guerrero, Ortiz, Maidana, etc.

But I mean Floyd's been on a solid run now with Mosley, Ortiz, Cotto, Guerrero, and Canelo. Those are all good or solid wins at the times he fought them.

Agreed! 100%!

well, that's something to consider. if he's smart he bails.

[joesaiditstrue]

****ing can't believe it

i do get the khan thing though, I'm just not sure floyd would care about a fight with him though.

[4Corners]

Top Rank will try to sell him by saying he can have a Pacquiao rematch, Cotto is now back working with them too.

But there's so many more options from 140-147 with Golden Boy. He probably should have went with Golden Boy to begin with. I just hope he beats Marquez. Can't wait for that fight either.
