    For casuals: Floyd vs. Canelo, obviously. Floyd vs. Pac won't be as big as it was 3 or 4 yrs ago but will still sell quite well.

    Here are what I consider superfights:

    Mares-Donaire
    Donaire-Santa Cruz
    Rigo-M. Garcia
    Garcia-Russell Jr
    Haye-Fury (ok, not really but will be fun to see one of them get KOed)
    Rios-Provodnikov
    GGG-Quillin or Canelo

    List getting too long so I'll just say this: basically any top 3 or 4 fighters in each weight class going at it.

    I'm also interested in circus fights. For example, Ward has insinuated that he would fight at HW. IF he's going there, I'd like to see him try Haye.

    The biggest fight out there money wise is still Pac vs Mayweather. Vitali vs Wlad is even less likely but would be absolutely massive. The most likely fight which is big would be Mayweather vs Canelo.

    Good list, I'd add on:

    Broner-Matthyse
    Broner-Peterson
    Broner-Garcia
    Maidana-Ortiz II
    Guerrero-Broner
    Rigondeaux-Mares
    Rigondeaux-Mikey Garcia


    There are many good fights out there to be made

    Floyd v Alvarez is probably the biggest. The Floyd v Manny fight would still be massive but not what it was. Haye v Vitalli would be a big fight in Europe but Im not sure how interested the American fans would be in that fight,Im guessing not very so even though it is for the heavyweight title it falls some way behind Floyd v Canelo.

    if Pac wins impressivley at the end of the year then Pac v Floyd would be the biggest fight in 2014! FACT.

    Mayweather vs Pac #1
    Mayweather vs Canelo #2
     
  11. GGG vs Mayweather, or Andre ward
    Mayweather vs Broner would be fun to watch as well
     
  12. When I was thinking of match ups , I didnt think of that one, but that would be interesting fight, I think it would elevate which ever won in a big way
     
  13. I would think Tyson fury vs. Vitalli would be a bigger fight

    Floyd-Canelo in September...probably 2 million buys. If Canelo could bother to learn English and appeal to Chicanos, 2.4-2.8 would be a pessimistic number for spring/fall 2014.

    Vitali vs Wlad.

    It continually amazes me that those guys simply got a pass on this. What profession did they go into, again? It's as offensive as Pac & Floyd not fighting.



    I'd also love to see Huey Fury vs Tyson Fury, but hey that's just me. :cool:
