Right now, Pac has this people in his waiting list (giving the urge is never found): JMM, Mosley, and Sergio (Unlikely). All these fights generate 1 mil + PPV buys. Then there´s Berto and Bradley, not that marketable. Who do you see in Floyds future if it´s not Pac or Sergio? Which fight besides these two guarantees 1 mil PPV Buys? What should be his next move if the Pac fight doesn´t happen?
Floyd talks too much **** to fight anyone but Sergio or Pac. He's pigeonholed himself into a mega fight or nothing at all.
The unfortunate thing about JMM, Berto, MArtinez winning is that Floyd has now all the reasons to not fight at all. So its crazy that the biggest fight of the century aint going to happen.
yeps and he surdenly dont want any of that.. I dont expect to see Floyd Mayweather in the ring ever again. there is a small chance in a year or 2 and then he will do another tune up fight. He will proberly fight the flyweight champion and make him move up in weight to 147..
I think its pretty clear that Mayweather or Pacquiao vs just about anybody does 1M+ , every time Mayweather has anybody from 147 - 160 who's willing to fight him @154 tops !!! Pacquiao is a little smaller so you could count out people like Martinez and Williams who are bigger men and mobile with it , Arum will feed Pacquiao walking punch bags like Clottey and the likes but will stir clear of PW and Sergio . But pretty much the same for Pac , he can make 140 so his options are a little broader in that he can fight from 140 - 154 . But seeing they are both WW's , there options look pretty similar
Floyd has plenty of options... (140lbs & his Don King/GBP associations) Just name Manny's & you have Floyd's... Just replace JMM w/Cotto & Mosley w/Martinez Let's not forget it's HIM who fighter's still have to build up to fight. but with all the DRAMA that surrounds him, He is losing his hold. Manny is very rapidly overtaking him.
HBO put their foot down and basically said "Manny or we won't buy" as far as Floyd's fights are concerned. But he isn't a contracted HBO fighter to my knowledge. So he could always fight someone on Showtime's penny.
