    Khan's gone out the window, Pacquaio fight is off the table so who is there? No obvious fight is around right now

    Who's desirable, who would sell a PPV and who's likely?

    Alvarez - probably too soon, but a big fight sooner or later

    Cotto - nothings going to change but a big draw

    Bradley - An Arum fighter so unlikely

    Guerrero-Aydin winner - fighting for WBC title

    Alexander-Bailey winner - they're fighting for the IBF

    Malignagi - WBA WW Champ, completely uninteresting fight, Paulie's a personality though

    Danny Garcia

    Higher risk fights against bigger men

    Martinez-Chavez Jr winner - maybe contracted to Uncle Bob

    Bundrage

    Kirkland

    Lara

    Pac still seems to be the only legit type fight him in my eyes anyway...

    If that can't be pulled of I would like to see Mayweather retire!!!! But since he won't I would say Matrinez/Chavez

    Yes there are obvious fights just ones you dont want to see. But Floyd is about getting that paper so..
    Cotto 2 in December then the winner of Canelo vs Lopez in May

    Well Danny Garcia makes some sense, even though I dont see that fight happening.

    Canelo I would say.

    In 2012??? IF he fights I'd guess a Cotto rematch
    In 2013: Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in May.

    if Berto woulda won the Ortiz rematch it woulda been him im pissed off
    im glad Khan lost because when he got beat by Mayweather he woulda just said "its my first fight at the weight my body wasnt used to it" i wouldnt be able to give Floyd credit unless Khan got a few big wins at the weight

    Mayweather would shut Garcia out and stop him within 8 rounds I lay any money on this.

    Mayweather vs Pacman is the fight that really matters...we're not talking two up and coming stars like Canelo and Chavez Jr. where a loss "puts the fight on hold"....we're talking two guys who are on the tail ends of their carers and for their eras need to complete this fight...

    IF Chavez Jr. Beats Martinez as expected.

    Arum will then go for a Pacquiao fight, IMO.
    (Only way this happens)

    I have said before this fight never gets made, I have changed my mind.
    Mark it down... Chavez beats Martinez, Mayweather/PAC happens.

    Why?? New Ca$h Cow.
