    Name the biggest fights that can be made going into 2010, and I mean the megafights that can really get the attention of Americans as well. Big enough for HBO to put on PPV, which I think has become rare (and receives 800k+ PPV buys in America).

    If you can think of many, try to order them from the biggest fight downward.

    Here's what I think, although there aren't many in my opinion...

    Pacquiao-Mayweather (if Pac and May win their upcoming bouts)
    Klitschko-Klitschko (if mother' approves)
    Cotto-Mayweather (if Pac loses to Cotto, but May beats JMM)
    Mosley-Mayweather (if Pac loses to Cotto, May beats JMM, and at 147)

    I really can't think of anymore that can do it... maybe you can... :smoke

    By the time the Super 6 tournament is over, the championship fight could very well be a superfight...

    looking at some of these, such as post 9, i think we need to appreciate the difference between a great fight and a megafight. a megafight as in a major HBO PPV event.

    The one that'll top the list and blitzes them all is Pac v Floyd. If Pac does a job on Cotto and Floyd is back to his best against JMM then the fight will be made. And that will do a **** load of $$$$$$s. Forget UFC that'll blow it out the water. But there ain't that mega-fights out there that will do that.
    Here in the UK, Hatton v Khan would do big numbers.
