    Matthysse or Thurman is what id like to see. Those wont happen tho.

    Not sure where they can turn at this point without major risk. If im team khan i might say **** it and go for broner. And I actually think alvarado would be a good choice for him but obviously that fight isn't possible.

    I agree that that fight would make sense money-wise and would excite the UK fan base. However, I doubt that fight would create much buzz here in the US. Brook is a quality fighter but hasn't beaten anybody that the American audience would be impressed by. Of the golden boy stable opponents, I think Broner is made for Khan. He's not a big guy at 147 and he's not a busy fighter. I think Khan could win that fight on points. I would actually be surprised if Broner would be willing to take that type of fight.

    Not sure myself. It just seems like a meeting to establish what is actually going on as no one knows who Floyd is fighting next. The original source is ring tv.

    Marcos Maidana and Floyd Mayweather Jr. advisors in talks

    February 17, 2014

    Marcos Maidana's manager told RingTV.com on Monday that he expects to talk today with Al Haymon, the advisor of both Maidana and Floyd Mayweather Jr., regarding a potential fight against Mayweather.

    Amir Khan also is in the running for the May 3 bout. Khan said in December that he already has signed his contract to face Mayweather at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

    "We are scheduled to talk to Al Haymon this afternoon, in a few hours, and then, we'll see how things are going. We'll have to talk," said Maidana's manager, Sebastian Contursi.

    "I think that they have to make a decision either today or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. They have to make the decision. It's up to them. It's always going to be complicated when it involves Floyd Mayweather."

    Maidana cited the expected birth of his daughter in mid-March as a reason he would not be ready for an April rematch with Adrien Broner, but Contursi said that a mega bout with Mayweather "would be a different story."

    Maidana upset Broner by a unanimous decision to win the WBA's 147-pound title in December.

    Mayweather stated on his Twitter account on Feb. 3 that he would allow his fans to decide whether his next opponent will be Khan or Maidana. Khan won the voting 20,105-to-15,474, according to the Mayweather Promotions website.

    Maidana will have less than 6 weeks to train

    Enters fight out of shape

    Floyd claims he is the greatest thing since sliced bread and calls out Pacquiao "yes Pacquiao you're next"

    September "I didn't say that stop putting words into my mouth"

    Fights Amir Khan in December who was knocked out in his previous fight

    Wins by knockout in the 12th round

    Claims he is the best thing since sliced bread

    Ortiz also beats Berto in december on the undercard

    Ortiz Mayweather II in May 2015

    Mayweather wins after Ortiz quits

    Rinse and repeat.

    Bradley Pacquiao IIII announced
