...the people involved are talking about possibly fighting Mayweather. GGG IS THE MANDATORY FOR THE WINNER OF THIS FIGHT. But the people involved are talking about fighting Mayweather! For those of you about to say they're only talking Mayweather because they're being asked about Mayweather, that's a weak excuse. Kovalev was asked about fighting GGG and he said that's a ****** question. Ward was just asked about fighting GGG and he refused to answer the question. He said he rather talk about his fight with Kovalev. You don't have to answer those questions.

Sadly i used to be excited about this week but not anymore. Such a crap fight this weekend. At this rate UFC will take over Cinco de Drinko weekend. Hell if Nate Diaz sported a Mexican/American Flag & rematched McWacker, itd probably do better than Canelo vs Khan this weekend. Idk if i will even stream it and risk the chance of getting a virus although Herrera is fighting so i just might. I feel bad for ODLH, all he has is Canelo & hes riding on this.

He has Luis Ortiz. The best fighter in a division that's heating up. Heavyweights will always be worth more than the lower weights. Mayweather is an outlier, that'll never happen again in boxing. Heavyweights is still where the big money is.

Ortiz is good but hes no Ace in the pocket, besides the Euros hold belts hostage. Wilder is the only western boxer worth $ I hope dlh the best but his future looks dim unless Canelo beats ggg.

But Ortiz is set up to fight the winner of Klitschko-Fury if Ortiz wins his fight against Usitnov. He's in he perfect position to capture half the HW belts and the lineal title.

UFC will always fall 2nd fiddle to a Boxing prize fight. Not sure when people will start understanding this. Boxing has been said to be dead for about 10 years yet Pac vs May did 4 million last year. I think it took like 8 UFC events to make that.

01/03/2015 UFC 182 Jones vs Cormier 800,000
01/31/2015 UFC 183 Silva vs Diaz 650,000
02/28/2015 UFC 184 Rousey vs Zingano 600,000
03/14/2015 UFC 185 Pettis vs Dos Anjos 310,000
04/25/2015 UFC 186 Johnson vs Horiguchi 125,000
05/23/2015 UFC 187 Johnson vs Cormier 375,000
06/13/2015 UFC 188 Velasquez vs Werdum 300,000
07/11/2015 UFC 189 McGregor vs Mendes 825,000

I don't think these sanctioning bodies are to happy with Fury as their champ. They'd rather have Wlad again or Ortiz, and really Wilder or Joshua

You know it's fight week when....
