    I'm wondering if the scenario is simply a case of mutual avoidance, and they'll fight each other when all other big money fights out there are exhausted.

    Assuming Floyd beats Ortiz, I think we'll see him fight Khan in Q1/Q2 2012 (if Amir gets past Zab of course).

    Pac beats Marquez, then probably also fights again in the following Spring. Maybe someone like Canelo or, less likely, Berto (he'll get back on track in a redemption bout I imagine).

    I suppose my point is that there's still a lot of cash to be made in fights where they are both the clear favourites, whereas they're both a risk to each other. It's business after all, and the hype surrounding Floyd/Khan at Wembley or Pac/Canelo in Mexico would be significantly damaged if they're coming off a loss.

    So, Pac vs Floyd Q3/Q4 2012 as the icing on the cake to their respective careers? :conf

    That's a good assessment. Never thought of it that way, but it makes perfect sense! :good

    Cheers bro. :smoke

    I reckon Floyd and Arum are definitely thinking along these lines.

    ahh yes i.e floyd v ortiz would not generate as much interest/money if it was after floyd v pacman rather than before

    good logic

    But how much would they make if they fought , had a rematch and possibly a 3rd fight?

    More than if they each have 3 fights against other guys?

    It's a trade off between risk vs reward.

    Its more like Pac is staying busy fighting waiting for Floyd and Floyd retiring and fighting someone pretending its a tune-up for Pac but end up retiring again to avoid Pac and the cycle is repeated over and over again :deal:deal:deal

    I reckon it will happen. No one's "getting over it" any time soon so might as well try and invoke some logic and reason regarding the subject.

    Great, more Pac v Floyd threads to scrool through

    Floyd is back for a pay day - Thats it

    No way does he face Pacquiao

    If he ever did he would win a UD

    But ITS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN

    Fans will keep wishing, but believe me. No way does it happen
