be careful what you wish for...

manny didnt really make a BIG noise against broner. so i dont see floyd coming out to fight pac. now if manny would have stopped broner, then i can see the rematch happening with floyd.

Floyd would still need at least 2 tune-ups to get ready for Pacquiao, so until I see tune-up fights scheduled, I think he stays retired!

Spence vs Pacquiao in cowboys stadium makes financial sense period.

if manny would of had a dominant performance against broner, a tko or even a ko then i can see floyd coming out with no tune ups to fight manny. but pac didnt really do all that good. he won, but it wasnt in a way that will lure floyd out.

Call me crazy but I think a highly motivated Pac might just shock Spence!! If it went decision, most likely Spence as they want to pit him as new kingpin of ww. BTW I don't think Mikey has nowhere near the speed, power or aggressiveness of Manny. Actually think Mikey would have problems with Lomachenko now..something Spence's trainer said the other day - he doesn't think Mikey can beat loma.

I like Spence but he really hasn't beat anyone of stature his size apart from Kell Brook and Kell Brook took it straight to him! I rewatched that fight the other night and had it even entering the 9th. To his credit though Spence really came on the last 3 rounds and took the fight. Brook even had Spence a little dazed after Brook went down in the 10th.

Even though Keith Thurman had 2 debatable wins over Porter and Garcia, I still view him as the man to beat in the WW division. I like Crawford too and he did good against Horn and Benavidez. I think both Brook, Horn and Benavidez are about the same...maybe a slight edge to Brook but not so sure now given how Brook looked like in his last fight - but maybe that was an aberration.

Put a super tournament in the WW division to settle for the undisputed WW champion!

Pac at his age of 40 has only 2-3 fights left & no doubt he still has the speed, the power, the ring IQ & as the cash cow! He only needs to fight at least a very important, blockbuster & sensible fights. A super tournament in the welterweight division must happen to settle for the undisputed welterweight champion.

Put a prize fight purse of 50 million dollars:
Only fair for a 7 blockbuster fights
1.) Undisputed WW Champion = 30 million dollars
2.) 1st runner up = 10 million dollars
3.) 2 semi-final losers = 3 million dollar each(S6 million)
4.) 4 quarter-final losers = 1 million dollar each (S4 million)

Total S50 million total purse prize = 30+10+6+4

8 Fighters: Knock-out System
Pacquiao, Floyd, Spence, Crawford, Thurman, Porter, Amir Khan, Danny Garcia

Floyd would be an idiot to think he could come off the couch at his age, and beat an active Manny Pacquiao, but he might just be that arrogant to do it! I doubt it!

Retiring Pacquiao will make Errol Spence a worldwide superstar. Age and weight will not matter. Pacquiao is FOTD and the only 8 divisions champ. Pacquiao retired Oscar dela Hoya the Golden Boy of boxing in a battle of the130 lbs. Pacquiao & the 160 lbs. Oscar meeting right in the middle 145 lbs. Welterweight.

Garcia = $ (easy to make fight)
Pac = $, big name, legend.
Everybody better be trying to get a piece of pac before he retires. Crawford will always be there.

Spence is 30 next year and he is still not chasing the big fights.

And Crawford isn't the biggest fight out there for him. That fight is Canelo.

You think he gained any stock in beating Garcia?

His stock went down.
