Comments Thread For: Schaefer on Mayweather's Options, PPV Records, More

I understand Khan brings the fan base but he has 3 losses on his record, how will they promote this fight? He barely beat his last opponent as well, thoughts?

I thought he beat Peterson. Even if you scored it for Pete, you had the hometown ref and Pete was roided up. If he got the W, he would have gotten the Floyd fight in May 2012.

He got knocked out by Garcia but as we saw, Garcia is a great fighter so that's nothing to be ashamed about. Prescott was so long ago I don't think its relevant in 2013-2014.

He's got the fanbase, he's got the tools, he's an Olympic medalist, his trainer has the hot hand and if he beats Devon he will be a newly crowned world champion. I think the fight can easily be sold.

Don't get me wrong, I HATE Khan and this is a **** fight that I won't be buying. But it can and will be sold.

Pacquiao would break the bank if he left Arum and made the Floyd fight with Golden Boy. Easily his highest payday.

The fight has lost its luster but at the end of the day its Manny vs Mayweather and that fight is going to stand on its own merit when the bell rings. None of the outside shyt will matter.

Ortiz is out...the last time he fought was 1+ year ago and he got his chin destroyed...he needs at least 2 great fights...at best Ortiz - Berto II & III

Garcia is not that out of sight...i mean Floyd Sr. tells us all the time that Floyd can make 140 easy...so why not fight for Garcia titles @ 140?

Khan is also (unfortunatley) very possible...we know he cant make the Septemer date cause of his religion...so it has to be a May date...but first he needs to go though Alexander...

I wouldnt be suprised if people would be calling for a Marquez rematch if he totally destroys Bradley (which will not be the case)

Pacquiao will go down in 2015 when he leaves Arums ass...

The fight i would like to see the most is May - Bradley...

Have you heard Khan talk about a Floyd fight in every interview? I think hell put religion 2nd for that fight.

If Pac wins, expect Floyd Pac to be made.

You really believe that?

How fair is it that Garcia KO'd Khan, cleared out 140, but it's Khan who may get the Mayweather fight first?

I say fight Pacquiao in May (if he beats rios)
Pacquiao better get a brain and walk away from Bob Arum.

Sad news......he won't do it though which is just out right ******.

If Danny beats Devon, then he'll be able to fight Mayweather any time he wants to.

haha.. but seriously

At this point he's probably the most competitive for Floyd between the two weight classes Floyd fights at that isn't on Top Rank as well as having the biggest fan base they will find a way to sell this fight I just dont see any other fight making as much money at this point for Floyd. Garcia needs to fight a fight or two at 147 first and build his name before a Mayweather - Garcia fight reaches its peak for selling it

[Fire4231]

Rather Khan at the Wembley stadium. Garcia needs to establish himself at 147...

Completely agree as long as Khan can handle business against Alexander, its really all that's needed to solidify this fight. The fight is super easy to promote if Khan looks like he is on top of his game.

[PeterNeversoft]

Not point in watching Floyd anymore...he will never go for the knock out so what's the point I watching...for the record you dont have to stand toe to toe to achieve a Knock out. No point in watching Floyd

It's a good thing Schaeffer is in the boxing business. That statement that Cristiano Ronaldo is "the number one soccer player in the world" proves he has no clue about soccer. LOL just joking...
