    Mayweather vs.Pacquiao.....theres a huge possibility dat fight is not going 2 happen,the money is the biggest issue!! Arum says 60-40 has to be in Mannys favor,and Floyd stated that there is no way in hell Manny would even get 50-50!!! and from what i heard Pacquiao vs.Cotto is already being discussed as we speaking,Arum knows Cotto would except the smaller share!!! and arum says Floyd keeps up his absurd request of the share,the fight will never happen, seems like Cotto vs.Pacquiao is def going to happen...therefore Manny being out of the picture,who do u think Floyd will try to get a fight with after beating Marquez?{which he will do}

    I hope mosley since pac-cotto might happen next. Mosley will be the only one available that would make it a big event.

    Your wrong, $$$ is the biggest issue why the fight WILL get made.

    A 40% purse for either fighter in this will be bigger than getting 70% from any other fight.

    Well we all know forsure it won't be any welters. They have to be either a featherweight or lightweight and be willing to move up to a catch weight of 144 or above. My best bet would be calderon.

    Mosley. It's the biggest money fight out there provided Pacquiao is unavailable, and if Pacquiao is unavailable, I think it means he's fighting Cotto.

    Pac and Cotto busy, who's left? Plus, Mosley is with GBP, whom Mayweather has been dealing with lately, and is on better terms with than Top Rank.

    I think he will go for Ivan Calderon. Calderon is undefeated and considered one of the best in the world. Should be a great fight.

    That doesn't always equal fights getting made. It wouldn't be the first time a fighter fights for a lesser payday because his pride and or arrogance won't let him take a smaller share of a bigger purse.

    It can be Juanma Lopez or Ivan Calderon but I think Floyd prefers Calderon being the more difficult fight! Floyd a true p4p champ, he loves greater challenges!:lol:

    Truly, fighting anyone besides Pacquaio at this point is going to be just all discrediting.

    He waited for Mosley to get old.

    Cotto is not the same fighter!

    Top 2 WWs in the world right now.

    Probably Vic Darchinyan. He seems to be about the right size.

    Chavez Jr like I said earlier. He is not going after no 1 who have either 1) Has great power and speed or 2) Someone who has knocked out some1 who has great power and speed.

    Pac vs. Cotto and Mosley vs Floyd and the winners face each other. Seriously hope this happens.

    right now is the time for him to fight those 2 especially cotto. Forget the lightweights and the strawweights. Floyd need to step up and beat this guys at welterweight.
