    Fight no.1 will bring the highest PPVs in 2015. Gennady has much shorter arms than Floyd, and their size difference will be rather modest at 154lbs, which Gennady is willing to go down to. The size difference between Floyd and Juan Manuel Marques was much bigger with almost 20lbs difference in the ring, plus the enormous reach advantage for Floyd.

    The weight difference in the ring between Floyd and Gennady, will probably be less than it was between Floyd and Canelo, and Floyd will have the reach advantage. If Floyd thinks he is an ATG he should definitely fight Gennady Golovkin, who is skilled but maybe not as skilled as Floyd.

    Any fan of Floyd who thinks he has a better skill-set than Gennady should demand this fight immediately, so the world can admire Floyd's skills. However, when it comes to real fights many realize that Floyd's resume is rather thin and that maybe he isn't as skilled as they initially thought, therefore arguing for Floyd to avoid fights with boxers who has great skill-set.


    Fight no.2 will still bring high PPVs because these two fighters have been media's main focus point during the last 7 years. One of them claiming he has unique skills, but rather fights less dangerous opponents. The other being a knockout artist without knockouts in the last few years. However, Floyd seems more willing now than ever to take risks if he can make a lot of money, and the reason Manny has no knockouts in the last few years is that he eases up on his opponents nowadays when he knows he's won the fights.


    Fight no.3 is very attractive because Canelo is a young strong fighter with good chin who has great power in both hands. Gennady has much better footwork, but will probably be forced to be more careful not exchanging shots too wildly with Canelo. However, a multifold of very hard punches will fly in this fight and the fans will definitely be willing to pay their PPV to watch it.


    Fight no.4 has good potential to be made in the end of 2015 because accountant Juan Manuel's favorite hobby is to count his doughs, so he will soon be salivating a fifth encounter.


    Fight no.5 initially looks like a terrible mismatch, but Floyd's legs are not as fast as Algieri's so Ruslan might be able to cut off the ring as he occasionally did against Timothy. Ruslan is always dangerous when he is able to get close to his opponents. Since Ruslan has the capacity to knockout his opponents with one punch, the audience will be on the edge of their seat. Few boxing fans can resist watching this PPV.



    *This fight has very evenly matched boxers where Erislandy, having the hardest punch, should be the favorite. Hence the fight having the potential to attract many more casual boxing fans and more PPVs.







    P.S. This thread asks Khan's fans to focus on Khan in other threads, because this thread is not discussing British boxing but American PPVs.

                  [B]Fight no.
                  It would be nice if some of these PPV's occurred, but the numbers you predicted would only occur in your dreams. A Floyd/Golovkin PPV would not draw more than 800,000 PPVs, or about the number that Robert Guerrrero drew, because GGG is only a PPV star on this message board with its 300 or so posters. No one outside of this message board cares about GGG. Also, some of the other numbers are pure fantasy also.

                  A more realistic list would look like this:

                  . Floyd - Gennady...................800,000 PPVs
                  2. Manny - Floyd.......................2.5-3 million PPVs
                  3. Saul - Gennady.....................300,000 million PPVs
                  4. Manny - Juan Manuel.........1.1 million (at most) PPVs
                  5. Ruslan - Floyd.......................800k PPVs
                  6. Saul - Miguel.......................~600,000 PPVs
                  7. Saul - David Lemieux..........30,000 PPVs (including Canadian buys)

                    Hey guys, I thought I would add a few more to the list. I personally think that these next few are far better than what is being talked about currently and would really revitalize the boxing landscape for 2015 and beyond.




                    No. 6: Roach - Floyd Sr.....................................10 Million Buys
                    No. 7: Floyd Sr. - Rueben Guerrero...................7-8 Million Buys
                    No. 8: Roach - Ariza.........................................7-7.5 Million Buys
                    No. 9: Floyd Sr. - Angel Garcia..........................6-7 Million Buys
                    No. 10: Rueben Guerrero - Angel Garcia..............6-7 Million Buys
                    No. 11: Arum - Schaefer......................................5-6 Million Buys
                    No. 12: Arum-Hymen..........................................5-6 Million Buys
