    There is no incentive for Floyd to seek out challenges at this point. Showtime has guaranteed that he will get paid no matter who he fights. If he fights Khan and it does 600k PPV numbers he still has his guarantee.

Sergio at 160, Lara at 154, Bradley if he leaves Top Rank and Manny if he ever becomes an actual Champion again. Or he can take out Danny G (even though he doesn't want the fight). Unify with Porter (even though it'll sell 7 PPV's), Unify with Maidana, makes perfect sense and the 2nd easiest win outside of a Manny. Just please, no Khan lol.
      Can we please stop mentioning Floyd fighting at 160 when he can barely make 150. know you guys want him with every disadvantage so he can lose, but the man can barely make 150, let alone 160. So just stop

          lol at can barely make 150.. im sure floyd can come in heavier but chooses not too. whats the point? floyd doesnt use his power to wear his opponent down and floyd likes to move so thats why he chooses to come in lighter.

                I dont get whats funny about him barely making 150. It has been proven. Love how you are SO SURE what he could or could not do. Proof is he has barely made 150, those are facts, not what you think.

                  It's about working... smarter. AKA... picking opponents wisely. Disgraceful coward. Biggest fraud the sport has seen, hands down.

                    Corrales undefeated, Hatton undefeated, Canelo undefeated. Khan.....defuckingfeated.

                    The most interesting part of a Mayweather/Khan fight, is going to be seeing how they build Khan up as a credible opponent. I mean, the "I think he's actually undefeated" routine won't work, because he's been knocked out. I just....I don't know, lol.

                      He's undefeated with mastermind boxing genius Virgil Hunter, trainer of the #2 p4p fighter in the world and heir to Mayweathers throne.
