        Yep nobody beats father time

          But number 50 should be it for him he already got hundreds of millions of dollars. Father Time has already caught up to him and after breaking marciono record there should be absolutely nothing left for to do in the sport.
          He should have hundreds of millions or at least a hundred million. He spends as quickly as he makes it and was supposedly cash broke and owed money to the IRS a fight or 2 before the 200 million dollar windfall.

          People have remember after the government, managers, trainers, cutmen and training expenses fighters net about 20 to 25 cents on the dollar. This is why many fighters that made a few million have financial problems as they only netted in the hundreds of thousands.

            It'll be between Garcia, Broner or Porter-Thurman winner.
            If the stars align for Khan this weekend, he will be the first choice. Mark my words, as Mayweather will go after that Middleweight strap.

                yep, Khan will agree to the weight. Mayweather will just come in at his regular 151, but the fight will be at 155, just to make it a valid middleweight fight.

                  This brings up an interesting point. I just finished watching Canelo vs Khan 24/7 Episode 2 and Khan insisted that he wanted the fight at 153 and that Canelo declined. What I don't get is how it would have even been considered a MW fight if Khan wanted it at 153 in the first place?

                    Khan used to believe himself as the next cash cow after Floyd and Manny. He sees himself at that level, but after a few duds, his star dimmed a bit. He went after Floyd, then Manny and failed to secure those fights, so he saw Canelo as the next best thing. Canelo, to continue holding on to the belt, would have to fight above 154.

                    In a nutshell, Khan is after a high profile fight and cares little for the strap, while Canelo is interested in keeping the strap, and using a big name like Khan to keep GGG at bay and wbc in his pockets.

                      It would be Garcia.

                      Floyd indirectly says so in that recent interview.

                      When asked about winner of Porter-Thurman Floyd changed the topic, so he has no immediate interest there.

                      Garcia is a wise choice. He's Latino and the easiest stylistic match up for Floyd. Good way for 39 y/o who would be coming off a break to test the waters and guarantee a path to 50-0
