    If Floyd wins this fight he would have won 2 ring titles in 2 divisions and defeated an undefeated 22 year old unified champion.this fight will also do 2 million ppv

    I think he has a legit chance to win it. All the other elite fighters who usually wins that award haven't looked all that great this year nor have they fights enough. Martinez looked sloppy in his last fight, a lot fans thought that he should have lost. Bradley went to war with a C-level fighter. Marquez won't look good against Bradley, whether he'll win or not. Manny will only fight once this year and it won't be enough to give him that award even if he knocks Rios out in the first round.

    Yeah it's very likely. Matthysse would be in contention as well if he beats Garcia.

    Unfortunately, that award usually goes to a more popular fighter. Rigo has to beat Mares later this year to win it, but this fight won't happen.

    Absolutely, no doubt. Two different Ring titles in two different weight classes is historical, and, it would be against #3(147) and the Champion(154). You just can't beat that. When people go to The Ring's website, they will see Mayweather as Champion at 147 and Champion at 154. That's insane. Even if he gets tripped of one Ring title, he'd still have done the feat.

    The fight won't do no 2 million PPV buys, 1.5 is the more reasonable number here.

    Remember how you predicted Floyd/Guerrero to do 1.5 mill and the PPV didn't even crack 1 mill in sales.

    If Rigo fights Mikey next or Matthysse KOs Garcia, I would give the nod to one of them.

    Floyd beating the new boogieman?

    Unless Froch went on to beat Ward later this year (very unlikely),I think Floyd has great chance.

    Rigo already has a strong contention for it if he can just close out the year with a bang.

    If Floyd wins solidly/spectacularly I think he might be in the running depends. I don't care too much for Guerrero tbf
