        Damn - that'll be a solid war

        They really put on a terrible card on May 3rd - looks like they're making up for that showcase card.

        If no rematch - who the hell is he [Money] going to fight?

        Cotto/Martinez
        - Nope; to quick of a turnaround + plus weight
        Lara/Canelo - See above + even if Canelo wins - it's too quick of a turnaround from that public undressing Mayweather layed on him
        Pac and TR stable - Nope
        Kahn - I hope not - but c'mon ol' boy's religion can wait and he can make an exception. I doubt he'll be publicly executed for it. I say it's 50/50 that the fight happens
        Matthyse - Sure he lost to Swift - but seeing Maidana have his success, and the fact that I think Matthyse is a better puncher and some more skills. He won his last fight and I think they can sell this whole Argentinian wave of bad-asses. I think this is 20-30% chance of it happening
        Swift - This seems like the most likely option of available contenders. He didn't look great against Herrera and received a debatable decision - I think fighting Floyd will have him perform better. I think this is the likely option - 70% chance of happening
        Marquez - this is my darkhorse longshot - Sure, it'll be another 12-0 shutout, but hey, Marquez has made dubious financial decisions in the past - I doubt he'll turn down a significant payraise at this age to make up for weird choices, and he'll receive much less punishment than he would against Pac. They can sell this new and improved Hulkquez with Tyson-esque punching power who's now a full figured WW unlike his debut. 10% chance

          Porter is already scheduled to fight Brook, it's a mandatory title defense so that leaves him out of the equation. Danny boy is most likely going to get the shot, I read somewhere on here that Bradley visited Floyd after his loss to Pacquiao, maybe he wanted to discuss a future fight?

            ESPN did a poll and Garcia was #1 even over Khan and the Maidana rematch. That kind of gives you an idea of what the general public wants to see.

              If it's not Maidana i guess he will fight Garcia if Khan dosen't sell out his religion.

              I would love to see Matthysse fight Floyd but i doubt it happens. Matthysse need a better win then Molina to be accepted.

                    Is the Porter/Brook fight a done deal cause I dont see it anywhere. Regardless of Danny's last performance, I dont mind the fight. There is honestly no one I can think of thats more deserving than him. Arum might as well go ahead and make Bradley/Alvarado.

                      Cant believe people actually spend time on ESPN since they got rid of their message boards.
