This a great idea. I can't wait for this fight. I wish it would happen soon. I can barely contain myself thinking about this fight. Pac who???


Siiiiiike. What a joke. If Golden Boy goes through with this they lose credibility as a promoter permanently.

how are you are blaming Golden boy for this? Floyd is his own boss and can say no. Floyd does not have a golden boy contract. place the blame where it needs to be FLOYD

Khan and Floyd are both GBP fighters. Stop swinging from Oscars nuts. He's going to match up a jr welter prospect (using the term loosely as he does hold a trinket) with the top welterweight in the division. Floyd signed a multi fight deal with golden boy and Khan is their international star. Golden Boy is to blame for this. Both guys will make a lot of money so one can't blame them. I'm done trying to figure out what Mayweather's definition of great is so I blame the promoter in this case.

Oscar is a promoter so he promotes and trys to make the most money. Floyd claims to be his own boss. If Floyd fight Khan then that's on Floyd not GBP. is it GBP fault that Floyd decided to go on fake vacation instead of fighting pacman? Just like Floyd punking out of pac fight he can do the same with the Khan fight.

Floyd wants nothing to do with Manny, that is obvious. Not blaming GBP. They'll take whatever they can get.

Shocking. A Floyd thread brings the ESPNers out of the woodwork

Golden Boy should be doing what they can to make the Pac fight happen. There should be zero, I mean Zero talk of Khan. Khan, their future cash cow who has a huge fight with Maidana in December and could possibly get the winner of Alexander Bradley or Ortiz in the interim. That's where the attention to Khan should be. International Star: Britain, North America, Yemen world wide Muslims will all turn their attention to this guy [i]if[i] he keeps winning. He's already had one get out of jail free card with Prescott, golden boy should protect their Golden goose. If the timing is right with Khan and he keeps winning, he has the size to move to a seemingly weak welter weight division and onto a weak Jr welterweight division in the next five years, he's only 22. You figure Kirkland will move up, PW will move up, Martinez and Cotto will be retired, Manny and Floyd too. Khan is the next huge thing, Golden Boy could possibly derail this with a fight with Floyd.

I could care less about Floyd. i am making sure that this scared ducker don't brime no blame towards oscar. oscar tried to get the chicken in the ring. If Oscar has to match the chicken with Iron boy then he will, because oscar is not making any money while chicken Floyd is on Vacation

Bullshit, you just said Floyd was his own promoter when I blamed Golden Boy. How would oscar make money if Floyd fought a Top Rank guy. See, the promoters make the fights not the fighters.

Again, can we please avoid calling professional fighters "chicken" and using the word "ducker" in every single thread?

I enjoy posting here because the discussion is slightly above this sort of Jr. High garbage; really don't want to see it sink to that level.

so when top rank was pushing for a Pac vs Yuri fight what happened? Pac said NO and guy what? the fight did not happen. you are telling me that Oscar had the ability to force Floyd in the ring he would pick Khan instead of forcing him to fight Pac? you are not making sense

Oscar is to blame for even bringing up Khan as a possible opponent. Again, i stopped trying to figure out Mayweather's rationale a long time ago. You said he's his own boss then contradicted yourself. The promoter in this case has the power to stop this fight, Floyd will fight a toddler with MS if the money is right so the conversation is moved to the promoter.

The article said schaler wants this fight but never the less. Do we agree that doesn't matter because Floyd has the right to say no and the fight wont happen? just like the pac fight didn't happen becasue he said no. that's all i am saying

By Oscar, I mean Schaeffer, Oscar and the whole GBP staff.

Of course he has the right to stop a fight, he did just that with Pacquiao and Margarito, now those two have to fight each other and no one cares. So yes we agree on that.

I think you should stop trying to figure out Floyd's intentions, it'll hurt your head. Instead do what I do and put the blame on the promoters that cow tow to his demands. If all promoters shut the guy out, you would see him fight the fights that we as fans want to see. There would be no JMM's or possible fights with Jr Welter prospects.

GBP is making plenty off of him, of course they are going to want another in house fight

Floyd retires, makes a comeback, they had Marquez

Floyd fucks up Pac negotiations the first time, they had Mosley

Floyd fucks up the negotiations again, goes on vacation, they'll build up Khan with a win or two, its on

Flod's getting unfair blame in this thread, this is just an idea Golden Boy is planning, there is no guarantee that Flod faces Khan next year.

Fair point. But if Floyd does make this fight? I'm gonna fall on him like the wrath of Jehova!

For arguments sake lets say Khan has beaten Maidana and Bradley/Alexander by mid 2011, wouldn't you be at least curious to see how Khan would fair against an aging Flod ?

At 147? Not really. But my issue wouldn't be with Kahn but with Mayweather. I'd like to see how mayweather fares against proven welters.

Aside from Manny nobody at 147lb's brings in enough money to lure Flod into the ring.

Nope. Roberto Duran had fought at 140 and 147 something like 25 times before he fought Leonard. he had also beaten ranked guys at those weights like Monroe Brooks, Carlos Palomino and Adolfo Viruet. In addition Ray Leonard had already beaten 5-6 ranked welters in the last 2 years.
