    Both Manny and Floyd surely have not long left in their respective careers and its not beyond feasibility that both could be finished by this time next year. As the sports biggest two 'cross-over' stars, the guys that create a buzz and excitement about their fights, even amongst the casual fan- their impact will be missed.

    Out of all the fighters out there, who (if any), can step in to fill the void left by them- the role of the crossover star, the megastar of boxing? Khan, Alvarez, Russel Jr, Angel Garcia?

    thats my worry , we really need a good few americans to win gold medals at next years olympics , when the americans wins they make them into big stars...just what boxing needs

    an american big punching heavyweight gold medal winner will do nicely

    Disagree, He's 35 now, I cant see him fighting that much longer, a couple of years max.

    Does Mayweather really need replacing given he only fights once a year?
