    I would like to see Garcia fight Mayweather instead of Khan but Khan has a three fight deal with Showtime. The other two fights were against Diaz and Molina Showtime and GBP are trying to cash out on Khan now.

    Garcia dad already said that he wants to bring Swift to the 147 division slowly. I would like to see Garcia fight the winner of Alexander vs Porter winner next year.

      But I don't think Mayweather is quite as good as he was against Marquez and Mosley either.

      I think Manny looked more or less how he did in 2011-2012, same with Floyd. That's still THE FIGHT. It just has no chance of happening with Arum in the picture.

      I would love to see Mayweather fight Bradley coming off beating Marquez, but again.....TR/Arum, no way that happens.
      Manny has slipped. And he's slipped big. I would be all for a Floyd fight honestly but I don't think ppl will at all be blessed with the results. I also don't think it will ever happen. Simply put, there is zero indication that arum/top rank/hbo would be willing to work with Schafer/Gbp/Showtime. Fans can scream all they want, but that just not how the world works. Rite now, there a hphuge Cold War going on in the boxing world, and that not gonna change over one fight. Not rite now.

        I think it's because I said Mayweather wouldn't get credit for beating Martinez in the other thread.

        That somehow translates into comparing Amir Khan to Sergio Martinez

        I genuinely have no idea how that conclusion has been formed.

          I think it's hard to gauge considering the opponent.

          Pacquaio still looks fast and strong, and still has his legs but it's hard to see where he's at against the top level opposition.

            I think the hand speed and foot speed, and the angles are still there. He's slipped but not as big as some are making it out to be. I think Floyd has slipped a little too. Both guys IMO are past prime-still good. I wouldn't pick many to beat Pacquiao around his weight. And I think as long as he avoids 1 big punch from Marquez, he beats him easily in a rematch, and does the same thing he did to Bradley in 2012 again next year. Pacquiao got put to sleep by JMM but he was winning handily and looking good aside from 2 punches.

              Rios was like a walking Margarito 2.0 to me in that fight. It had the same outcome, fairly boring one sided UD written all over it, a fight to showcase Pacquiao's speed. It's a shame Pacquiao doesn't get the chance to fight other fighters at 147 like an Alexander or a Guerrero.

              I think Pacquiao looked pretty good against Bradley. Sure, he fought in spurts here and there, but he defeated a very good Bradley handily.

                Definitely but it's hard to say if he's the same as when he fought Bradley a year ago because he was fighting a guy much worse than Bradley for starters and someone with a completey different skill set.

                A rematch with Bradley would be a great fight to see where he's at IMO.

                    I don't get why people want danny to hoot and holler for a mayweather fight. Hea never done that. Just because you don't say a bunch of ****** crap like Guerrero before a big fight doesn't mean you'll fight scared in a big fight. Danny is a quiet dude, if mayweather decides he wants to fight danny next then I'm sure danny will give it his all in the ring.
