    He will be ignored by the WBC if a Pacquiao rematch turns out to be sensible and highly demanded.

    It doesn't really matter. If Mayweather doesn't want to fight him he'll just give up the belt because "a belt does not define me!"

    Here's the thing with Mayweather, belts and mandatory defences:

    Mayweather gave up his WBC welter belt because they made Pacquiao the mandatory and he didn't want to fight him. Now he's been forced into a fight with Pacquiao regardless.

    Conversely, Mayweather is clinging on to his junior middleweight strap and yet probably has no intention of ever fighting there again. In fact he should have been stripped by now.

    If Mayweather gets past Pacquiao and fights on then he'll fight whoever he likes for the most money available and strictly on his own terms. He might well fight Khan, but he won't be forced into it.

    He cant be forced into it, because like it or not, Floyd is one of that elite group of fighters that ISNT defined by a belt.

    If Wlad gave up all his belts tomorrow, everyone wouldn still see him as the man at HW.

    The man makes the belts, not the other way around.

    The Hatton-Pacquaio fight was for the lineal LWW title, but Im pretty sure the only actual belt on the line was the Micky Mouse IBO belt.

    The belt was irrelevant

    Yes this is Mayweather.. I think if he beat Manny easy there will be no need for rematch then Khan next biggest money fight, if it's close he will do the rematch too much money..

    Khan been fighting most of his fights in the us since fighting maidana more then in the uk lol.


    Lets behonest you want khan to fight Floyd cause you a big khan fan but what if Floyd fight khan and beats him? I would bet all my money mostly everybody will bash mayweather big time saying his last fight is beating a glass chin that isn't elite in khan. Beating khan doesn't do anything for Floyd.


    So what does beating khan do for Floyd besides the money as you say huh?

    Off topic but what is your opinion of Khan fighting Algeiri instead of Brook?

    Brook would be the bigger fight and for a title.

    It'll be interesting if Khan struggles with Algieri's backfoot approach, if he does then that pretty much rules out any hope of him being competitive with Mayweather.

    If he wipes Algieri out on the other hand...

    You think Mayweather will care if people bash him??

    He'll pick up another cheque for about 50 million and ride off into the sunset and not give a single ****.

    Such a big draw that showtime decided not to broadcast his next fight. Lol

    This idea that Khan is a draw in America is laughable.
