Khan & Floyd & Alexander [PIC]

[FrankieBruno]

I think both, especially Garcia, should be fighting at 147 anyways. I'm dreading the thought of Floyd fighting Khan/Alexander, hope they match that winner up with Broner/Maidana instead.

Floyd is trying to make the most money possible

There aren't many boxers who offer him that,

Canelo rematch - (if Floyd loses)

Khan in the England (if he beats Devon)

Lucus/Garcia winner

Sergio end of 2014

Broner if he can put 2 decent wins together

there are a lot of if's involved, but I don't see how else Floyd cud earn large %

There is Pacman and Bradley (if he beats JMM) but Arum and Floyd will never agree to anything

Ward looking like "I wish I can make monies like these guys "

[boxer2k5]

He better not fight the Khan-Alexander winner next instead of Matthysse/Garcia.

lucas and Garcia would have to settle into welter first. plus Floyd has more fights. if he fights winner of khan vs devon in may then fights the winner of Garcia vs lucas in sept(after one wins their welter fight) that would be perfect.

[boxer2k5]

khan/alexander winner has no 'pull'.... alexander has 0 appeal, no notable fanbase out of st louis..... at least khan has the british angle.... but floyd has more british fans than khan....

putting matty and danny on the undercard, giving them that exposure.... makes them the obvious next choice.... cos the 2.2 mill who watch, will see that fight.... and become instant fans, so they're twice more likely to purchase a ppv featuring that fighter and floyd....

a casual fan, will think of it like.... "that guy who had that awesome ko is fighting floyd next, he might ko floyd"

they don't know the science, but they'll equate one to the other.

That sounds about right. especially if lucas comes out looking like a monster. People already saying Floyd would never fight him and he can beat Floyd lol. but I can see that happening.

I can see Bradley if he beats marquez. Bradley deserves the shot more than anyone else. And he doesn't demand as much money. He will take a alverez type deal probably much less. I think he would fight Floyd for 5 million. If Bradley beats marquez his resume would be above everyone elses. Manny at the time was demanding as much as Floyd. on top of the issues with Floyd and arum. If arum takes a step back then we can possibly have a fight. but manny has to string up some wins get his name back out there. Give manny to broner. If manny beats broner that set up Floyd and manny again but manny has to take whatever deal Floyd gives him. he can say I know how to beat your style and all this and that. If broner beats manny that would set up broner vs Floyd big time. id say Floyd retire off that or fight Martinez if he is still middleweight champion and go for his 6th title.

what difference would it even make....

marquez made a far bigger jump for the opportunity.

Yeah and looked pudgy and fought like crap.

Yeah and looked pudgy and fought like crap.

PUDGY??
I agree he looked like crap fighting Floyd but most do. Not to mention Floyd has him outclassed in every skill in boxing. not taking anything away from marquez who is amazing. but styles make mights. But he was far from pudgy

ward shouldn't have talked all that s h i t

now he's outside the inner circle

^^^^^^^^^^

It was the worst I have ever seen him look. He did not look good at all at that weight, but it was a hell of a jump to make without having a few fights to get used to the weigh, so what do you expect? He looks a damn sight better phyically now than he did back then, thats for sure.

[bojangles1987]

The winner of Garcia vs Lucas wud have to have at least one fight at 147 before getting in the ring with Floyd, you'd want them to have somewhat of a chance at the weight

Khan vs Devon winner then followed by a fight out of whoever won Lucas vs Garcia

I fully disagree about that. We're not talking moving up to fight normal sized welterweights who end up near 160 or over on fight night. Just like Pac, Mayweather barely weighs above the limit on fight night. Normally when a guy moves up to get used to weight, it's because they'll be fighting bigger guys, but Matthysse and Garcia are the same size as Mayweather, Garcia may even be bigger. They can weigh in at whatever the hell they want in between 141 and 147 and it won't be a disadvantage.
