    This was the plan and there was a hickup
    This will still be the plan but they will take there time,maybe 2014 with FM only 2 a year
    More of you will disagree but time will tell:)

    Might have happened around this time if Khan hadn't been KTFO, but Mayweather likely wont be around by the time Khan manages to rebuild his name.

    :lol: It's possible that it could happen but it would have to be soon, the longer its left? the longer Amir has to keep winning.

    This is a concern.

    Who cares?

    I said last year pre-Peterson that Mayweather would KO him, nothing's changed there. If Mayweather wants it, it's another cherrypicked opponent I'm afraid.

    I think it will happen as long as Khan can get a couple of wins with one decent name in amongst them,that's the hard part.

    To be honest I think it's the only reason GBP have stuck by him to sell him off in a Mayweather fight.

    Other than Shane Mayweather seems to only fight Hispanics mostly Mexicans.
    Do not see it happening just promotional bull****.

    Mayweather fancies his chances of selling 1m+ PPVs here and making a killing, Khan would be his vehicle toward doing so.

    But Khan wouldn't sell anything like that kind of number, he's not got the name value or career standing that Hatton had.... and nor is Floyd the mega star that he was, given how infrequently he's been in the ring since 2007.

    Even if Khan somehow does fight his way back into contention, do you think for one moment that Mayweather is going to waste his time fighting him? Fighting Khan brings Floyd nothing. It wouldn't generate anywhere near as much money as fighting Canelo or Martinez would.

    Mayweather only takes the most lucrative fights which will make him the most money, he's not bothered about winning belts anymore. He openly admits it.

    Khan doesn't bring anything to the table apart from a noise.
