    maidana is out, pac :D

    also, it is clear now, no canelo and broner on the undercard.

    who else is gonna be there?

    danny garcia? what happens if danny does a canelo with "i aint fighting in floyd's undercard no more"? or demands a share of the split.

    with angel in a tight rein of his son's career, anything goes.

    edit; someone knows angel garcia twitter account? gonna twit him he should demand 30pct of ppv share if danny is forced to fight under floyd undercard :D

    in a fair world it would be Mayweather Bradley

    It's going to be Mayweather-Khan. Bradley is with Top Rank so that fight won't happen and GGG at 154 isn't as relevant as it would be at 160. Mayweather is most likely going back to 147 and staying there for good.

    Didn't Diaz prove to be a serious challenge?

    i meant to say, without a strong card, floyd-khan is shaping fast to be another floyd-guereerro and geurrero is mexican fighting on cinco de mayo.

    so they need another mexican (danny garcia) badly to carry the fight on mexican holidays and at least bring the mexicans to las vegas.

    is danny enough to avert another floyd-guerrero?

    there could a pac-mayweather chance here.

    Danny Garcia is Puerto Rican.

    I honestly believe, sadly, that Khan-Mayweather will sell big regardless of undercard. The majority look at the main event when purchasing PPVs because the main event is the fight literally on the poster and hyped all over. Khan is famous enough to attract many viewers for Mayweather, not to forget that the "All Access" episodes will be rather entertaining and will easily attract casuals.

    lmao at pr.

    yeah. i guess we are doomed.

    EDIT: or it could backfire. khan is famous enough among the casuals to be known as not having a chance against flolyd. there is no mystery here. and he has no big win prior to the mayweather fight.

    I still think Khan is a decoy, and the probable opponent is Garcia. If Broner wins a rematch with Maidana he might be Floyd's opponent after that.

    Garcia would be excellent, I really can't see the khan fight happening. Nobody wants it, I would love it if Floyd was to announce An opponent at 160. Geale,GGG,Macklin any of them would be great. If he was to fight as a underdog against a much bigger man and win, all this talk of cowardice and ducking would go away.

    Khan just simply isn't good enough, it's just a waste of 6months of his career. Garcia would be ok for me as he is pretty solid and undefeated, 24/7 would be great!!! But a middleweight is what I would love most, maybe a catch weight of 157 with a max rehydration of say 165?

    That's enough to keep the haters at bay, and genuinely give someone a chance of beating Floyd.

    Plus he doesn't really have a lot of options. If he fights at 160 and loses then he can say it was the weight difference etc.

    If he wins on the other hand then his legacy looks in tact.

    I'd like to see

    Garcia - Matthysse 2
    Frampton - Leo Santa Cruz

    But potentially good undercard bouts are falling by the wayside a little with fighters engaged elsewhere.

    we're talking about may 3.


    edit: sorry got the maidana wrong.

    garcia;s camp said they are not ready.

    expinochaza said only 3 names figured to be in the running, one of which is out and garcia's name isnt on it.

    if it happens to be garcia, then that means the head of showtime lied, has prolly lied in the past as well but was not caught and most importantly, he cant be trusted.
