    Pretty sure there was a rematch clause for the baldomir fight so...

    Totally ******ed poll options. If Mosley wins what makes you think a rematch won't be bigger than the first one?, of course it will be bigger, people will definitely look forward to a rematch regardless of how good Mosley looks beating Mayweather.

    I think not every fight contract has a rematch clause so it's not standard practice.

    I have car insurance but I don't consider myself at a high risk of getting into an accident. I have life insurance but I don't think I'm dying any time soon.

    How about if Mosley brutally KOs Floyd (it's unlikely but possible), will the rematch be bigger? I even think that if this will happen, Floyd will not pursue the rematch clause anymore. :D

    Where's the real contract that specifies who will throw which punches in which rounds and what margin the scorecards will show Mosley lost by?

    OK I got it. You have those insurances because you wanted any loss or damages that could possibly happen be fully covered. Does this boils down to money?

    Because there is no one out there for FM to fight (Top Rank boycotts him). If he beats Mosley and Pac refuses to fight him, he's not going to let Mosley fight Pac.

    Or they will have a scripted fight where Floyd loses a controversial close decision and then they will have an immediate rematch. Hope they follow the script well. :D

    I think the most important thing to do is to find out how many times floyd has requested a rematch clause rather than jump to conclusions.

    It means nothing if this is something he tries to get in all fights. It could just be insurance in case he does his hand in and cant fight to the fullest potential and therefore looses the fight.

    Hope that if ever there's a rematch, it's really warranted. Not that Mosley will be forced to give a rematch just because it's stipulated in the fight contract.

    We're not jumping to conclusion. We're still discussing what's the purpose of Floyd asking a rematch clause with Mosley.

    He would want to avenge his only loss, if it were to happen.

    But it won't
