    I think thats the reason why khan wont fight thurman. Once he loses, its thurman up next for floydie. Khans just trying to get paid. His chin is as bad as ortiz's chin.

      Since when is being undefeated automatically make you the A side??.. For starters, When Oscar De La Hoya fought Chavez. Chavez had 1 loss. Did that automatically make Chavez the B side????? Ya I don't think so.

      Next, If Mayweather was 63-0 then the 'undefeated' title can be put into place as "this why I should be the A side". Pacquiao has 63 fights in total. Mayweather has 47 in total. So when Mayweather goes 63-0 then his so called '0' can be relevant. Yes he has an '0' on his side. But Pacquiao is the ONLY fighter ever to have 8 championship belts in 8 different weight divisions. AND WILL NEVER BE DUPLICATED IN THIS GENERATION OR THE NEXT.

      Now let's go the $$ numbers. So far to date in PPV PURSE FIGHTS (not including ppv, ticket sales, etc.) Mayweather has made $12,834,000.00

      While Pacquiao has made $13,260,000. (with one fight not accounted for because it was out of the U.S.)

      Pacquiao has made more money in PPV fights. And yes he has also fought 7 more times on PPV than Mayweather. Because let us not forget Mayweather was retiring or taking 12 to 18 to 24 months off at a time when he was fighting. But when people want to copy Mayweather and say "numbers don't lie"... then Pacquiao has made more money in PPV fights than Mayweather. Now don't come out saying "well pacquiao has fought more". Because we're talking with mayweather's logic of "numbers don't lie"...

      Now the reason why Mayweather is the highest paid athlete as oppose to Pacquiao. Is because he has the better deal when fighting his opponents. He gets the majority of the ticket sales, ppv sales, the all accesss/24/7 shows. etc. etc. ( He's executive producer of All Access) So you know he has to be getting paid double for being on the show and for being a producer.

      He also fights on the most important dates in boxing (Mexican holidays). But the biggest reason he is a higher paid athlete than Pacquiao is simply because he is an American fighter. Pacquiao is from a foreign country.

      And if you don't think that makes a difference ask yourself this. If Mayweather was a fighter in the Phillipines. And Pacquiao strictly fought in the Phillipines. Who would be the biggest and most paid athlete there out of them both? It would be Pacquiao.

      And even though Pacquiao is the foreigner here. He has just as much of a fan base, if not more, than Mayweather. AND HE'S THE FOREIGNER.

      So if you want to talk A side or B side. Ya that "0" that Mayweather loves to cling on and brain wash people with. Doesn't really cut it. When you put all these facts together.

          Woooow, imagine that?????? I'd pay $100 for that too...floyd/khan as the co-feature though? Idk but thats a hell of an idea though fetta!

              it is. Some one else mentioned something similar to this. Except have top rank fighters fight GBP fighters, cotto/canelo AND pac/mayweather.... Ill easily pay $500 for a card like that (8 fights total tho, not just 3)
