    Richard said the fight would depend on the outcome of the Canelo vs Lopez fight. He says they have had the date reserved for awhile and that they will go forward with their fight no matter what Top Rank does

    Could we see Canelo vs Mayweather against Manny vs Bradley or Marquez both on PPV?

    This war is about to get real real ugly

    This will determine who the bigger draw is.

    If you mean Floyd, it's not quite so simple. Floyd utilizes social media (Pacquiao does not), hangs out with celebrities (50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Bieber, Triple H, etc.), and threatens to never fight again after every fight. If Pac was a once a year fighter, the Bradley fight would have broken 1 million PPV buys for sure.

    hmm... Would they really be willing to put a true head to head up against Manny's new date? I doubt they'll feed Canelo to Mayweather, it doesn't help them at all if Canelo loses, better off feeding him the Cintron's of the world. But Canelo will almost certainly be on the card. that leaves a small group of guys left to feed Mayweather. Khan would be the cash out choice, the man has no chin and is just going to keep getting his ass knocked out if they let him fight anyone with a tight fist and boxing skills. Devon Alexander would walk through him like Tissue paper, so what better way to maximize his value than to have Mayweather execute him on a PPV card which should still get 500K+ in the UK, and probably over a million stateside. Especially if Mayweather wants to punish Vegas for having him in solitary for 2 months, they could have the fight over at O2 or something.

    Oscar said this week that he thinks Canelo is ready for anybody now and that he would put him in the ring with Mayweather Lara whoever

    Oscar also said that he had his best training camp ever prior to the Pacquiao fight if memory serves me correctly. He talks out of both sides of his mouth.
