    Robert Brown: Who do you think the frontrunner for Floyd’s next fight is at this stage?

    Jeff Mayweather: To be honest, I can’t really say who it is because I’m not one hundred percent sure. If they do it by names — which Floyd normally does — it may actually help the pay–per-view revenue, it’s gonna possibly be Khan or maybe Pacquiao next for Floyd, because there’s no other options out there in the weight class that make any sense.


    Contradictory BS as usual though. He mentioned Khan who Floyd himself said he has "unfinshed business in the UK" or something to that effect, and the Pacquiao fight will not happen for obvious overstated reasons.

        I hope you realize Jeff Mayweather is speaking on his own behalf and no one else's. Or maybe you didn't realize that this is Jeff, not Floyd.

          The thing that Brook has going for him is that he's British but he's nowhere near popular enough to get Mayweather's attention which is why Khan will likely get the shot before him.
          Theres hardly ever any too black ww when Floyd is picking an opponent. And he's fought plenty of black guys lol he doesn't pick who to fight by race

            The article just rips what he said straight out of its context. To to fair to Jazzy Jeff, as the interview transcript shows, he wasn't commenting on who 'deserves' a shot in terms of what they've achieved in the ring. It was in terms of marketability. What he said about Brook wasn't out of hand.

            Chaykovsky's pulled Jeffrey's pants down. He must have refused to buy him a latte.

              I was talking about all the mayweathers obviously. They all just say who isn't worthy of a fight instead of who is worthy.

                You said contradictory BS so it sounds like your taking statements from two different people.

                  Must be a slow news cycle. Boxingscene is just printing every random passing thought that a Mayweather or Pacquiao has. When was Kell Brook's name even tossed into the Mayweather $1.5 million with no back end sweepstakes?

                    He has done since 2007. Fighting on Cinco de Mayo and Mexican Independence weekends, race is a big factor on PPV buys.
