    No way would Khan VS Mayweather happen. Khan wouldn't even want that, Freddie is going to have a hard enough time getting a Game-Plan set for Manny, let alone Khan. I personally think Mayweather VS Martinez seems the most interesting.

    PW is ripe for the picking. Floyd kills PW and everyone thinks otherwise

    That is true, after a bit of hype the UK fans would fall for any farce of a fight if its involving their fighter.

    But with that said, I'm quite frankly gob smacked that Khan's name is even being thrown in to the hat. The standard of ESB posts have officially dropped to a miserable level of quality.

    Since Martinez can make 154lbs easily, it's not like he'd be a big Middleweight anyhow. I say do it at 160lbs and pick up the Middleweight strap. That'd make a nice dusty collectible.

    Hey, im just writing on how I see it. It wouldnt be far fetched to to think Floyd would fight Khan if he beats Malignaggi dominantly. Dont blame me blame Mayweather.

    The guys posting that Floyd should fight Martinez at 160 are just doing it because they want to see him lose. (Don't get me wrong, I want to see Floyd lose too)

    First of all, FM wont fight at 160. IF he fights Martinez it will be at 154lbs. And that is a BIG IF, which won't happen. High risk/low reward with Martinez. Same goes for PW, it would be at 147 but with a BIG IF IT HAPPENS. And PW would also be a high risk/low reward again.

    His only mega fights out there are Cotto (if he beats Foreman) and ofcourse Pac! Those are PPV quality which will give Floyd the most bang for the buck. :deal But fighting Pac is going to be difficult. There is the drug test issue and then there is Bob Arum, who is liking the idea of fighting Pac with Margarito instead of Floyd. :patsch

    I SAY Berto..

    i think floyd wants to wait for sergio...sergio should take 2 fights in the states against lesser but more known opponents..maybe a winky wright and a smaller but well known guy to move up to 160 from 154 and beat him too...than after floyd whoop on lil pac, martinez will be there to offer the $$ so the risk of fighting him will be worth the reward since i dont know if floyd cares too much about the mw title....than again...gaining a mw title would do alot for his legacy...

    7 titles 6 weight division champ with titles at 130,135,140,147,154,160 looks very good on a resume...hopefully sergio can get his name out there
