    By the end of 2015 Floyd will probably call it a wrap. If he was to fight Thurman now, he would be mocked saying Thurman was "green", Martinez and GGG was weight drained, Pac is shot and as for Bradley and Porter....gimme a ****ing break-lmao
    No he wouldnt.

    He would be respected for daring to be great, I would be his number one fan and cheerleader as I believe he has the skills and talent to be the best.

    In terms of specific points, when a figher GGG/Martinez both say they can make 154 (which is only 6lbs) then they are not drained give them plenty of notice so they make the weight comfortably as they have claimed.

    A Thurman fight is perhaps early but he is a hungry young lion and a killer (the complete opposite of khan, although floyd likes to promote tomato khan as such).

    The others TR/GB is an issue but we all know Floyd can make any fight he wants, he has all the power and none of the balls.

    I still cant believe Floyd will drop a belt rather than face his biggest threat in the biggest fight in boxing history. Floyd hates southpaws and evevn with mannys recent decline it is still not enough. Sigh.

    And yes you can laugh at porter and bradley all you want both 100x more deserving than Khan who has zero wins at 147.

      Thurman
      GGG/Martinez at 154
      Lara
      Bradley
      Pac
      Porter


      BUt you can bet your ass he will fight khan, maidana (who is barely top 10 broner just has no footwork) malinaggi and another 140lbr Garcia if we are lucky


      And if Pac fought these guys then they would be building them up as animals.... especially Maidana.

          Pac fights everyone, he was coming off a knockout loss, you dont think he needed a tuneup fight vs. rios to see where he was at?

          Floyd is self proclaimed the best ever, so even if I agree with your assumptions which I dont, Floyd must be held to a higher standard. He wants to be Ali, SRR, then step up and prove it, no more bull**** fights.

            Dude-ANYONE deserves a fight more than Khan. I'm with you on that.

            As for people thinking Floyd is going to lose to a southpaw, look at the history...Mitchell got KO'd by a body shot, Corley was put down multiple times, Ortiz got ko'd (ala sucker punched), Judah got beat after a few tough warming up rounds for Floyd, and Guerrero got schooled...against southpaws, Floyd tends to be more accurate.

            Bradley has the best chance against Floyd, but even then I doubt he is successful. If Tim left Arum I doubt it's a fight Floyd would be weary of. It would probably look like the Floyd/Hatton fight minus the ko...lots of inside work.

            I would like to see a Thurman fight in the future. He is viscious and can box a bit...still needs polishing a bit, but he is the sorta guy boxing needs.

              Do I think Pac needed a tune up fight against a guy who had every odd against him in Rios and never fought at WW???? I'm not going to answer that-lol

              Do I want Floyd to fight Pac, Bradley, etc...yes. Unfortunately Bob the builder doesn't do business when it comes to his stars unless they sign with him. Hopefully exceptions can be made...

                That's bull....Pac has always waited until he has seen weakness, then he takes the fights. They calculate risks as much as Floyd. To pretend otherwise is a load of crap.

                  Exactly, right on point.

                    1-Floyd wouldn't trust TR involved in promoting this event.
                    2-Manny is getting ****d from Arum. He will make the money he wants if he is able to leave TR.

                    As for beating JMM and Bradley-well, Pac still has scores to settle with them. It doesn't mean that I wouldn't prefer a Pac/May fight over Khan because Pac deserves it more.

                    As for Pac being more relevant...let's be honest,Pac has lost a good degree of relevance the last few years...on the other hand-Khan is absolutely not relevant!

                    Now I can list the times Manny has turned down fights with Floyd and they look a lot worst.

                    Both guys appear to not be interested in one another.To ignore this you would have to be biased. Manny isn't exactly begging Arum for the fight and Floyd is content making record purses against other guys not associated with TR.
                    gbp wont allow tr the sole promotion either. arum stated after the rios fight that he is open to co-promotion. they had done this before.

                    it is manny that are being scam not mayweather. this is not a valid alibi.

                    if he would not fight pac. at least he pick someone who are presently better than pacs p4p standing. (i'll not mention about resume, because none could be better in pacs resume that are active)

                    manny turned down a floyd fight? are you talking about the random blood test. is it fair to say that the one who erected the first block is the most responsible of the wall being build?
                    floyd never had a olympic style blood testing prior to pacquiao negotiation.

                    manny at least appear to want it more.

                    • You guys can go back and forth all you want but if FMJ picks Khan as his next oppenant then nothing can justify that one. No argument there what so ever!

                      If it is indeed Khan then that should tell you what his mind set is and has been regarding oppenant selection. It will explain alot things for those of you that are smart enough read it.
