    Jesus christ. Have you seen the video where he says this? He is clearly joking and everyone in the room laughs.

    It is bull, but it probably would. But look at the UK for an instance, that's even worse. Haye vs Audley and Belly vs Cleverly ring a Bell?

    Showtime would not allow anything over then a big fight for the last one in the contract - no way he gets 32m guaranteed for a nonsense fight likes that.

    I think Khan will get the fight, Cotto is fighting Alvarez, Thurman is fighting Collazo, D Garcia is fighting Malignaggi - who else is Floyd realistically going to face.

    Yeah I see what your saying but would a Porter fight sell more PPVs then Khan? Absolutely not and I think Showtime would want maximum return for the last contracted fight. And let's not forget they have muscled
    Floyd into taking fights such as Alvarez - no way IMO would Floyd have chosen him at that point especially as 154lb but Showtime put there foot down after poor PPV figures in previous fights

    Nobody in their right mind would buy Floyd vs Berto and certainly not Mayfield, but enough of the lightheaded ones will.
    And as it turned out those fights in the UK had more as enough buys, so I think my point is valid.

    Berto and Khan are buds. Is he trying to get under Khan's skin?
