    If Khan was able to get a few more decent wins, I think Mayweather-Khan would do big numbers.

    Also, if Pavlik continues his winning streak with some big ko's, I'd love to see him fight Chavez Jr. or Froch

    mayweather-pacquiao
    mayweather-alvarez
    pacquiao-alvarez
    mayweather-cotto 2
    alvarez-cotto

    financially those are probably the biggest. I know I didn't choose from a huge pool, but those are boxing's cash cows. JCC Jr can probably squeeze in there somewhere, maybe.

    I'm not saying he was legendary, however, he did create excitement in the sport for a while and thats what I want to see.

    I agree, but I wouldnt describe him as one of boxing's "biggest stars." lewis deserves the nod over him, as turbotime alluded.

    Top 5 PPV Fights? What does that mean exactly? I'm assuming you mean revenue... otherwise just ask what the top 5 fights would be...

    If you mean revenue...

    Nonito vs. Rigondeaux, Broner vs. Gamboa and all these other fights people are listing wouldn't make the big bucks. They would only please true boxing fans but they wouldn't have mass appeal. That's a fact.

    And the list still left off the likes of Hamed, Morales, Castillo, Lennox.

    It's rough out there. Thank god for Floyd and his self-preservation, really.
