Floyd vs Khan.

there was a video released by Mayweather, one of his groupies sneakily filmed the meeting with Pacquiao.

A 12 second clip in which Floyd says he respects Pac's career, they need to make the fight happen, blah blah blah... i couldn't believe it, he was talking as if he was being interviewed on a sports slot on the evening news. Who conducts themselves like that in a business interview?!

I thought the fight would happen, now i'm back to thinking that Floyd is just managing his Public Relations with the "meeting".

Khan is a free-agent Haymon fighter. Fight will bust 1m buys no problem and Khan will get paid a pittance. The only complication is see is who promotes it. Oscar might try to leverage Khan to resign, would suit all parties i guess, DeLaHoya gets Khan on board and Floyd gets a promoter for the fight on the same terms as before i'd imagine.

Inoue vs Gonzalez is the only super fight likely this year.

Maybe oddly I think Floyd vs Manny is the most likely. I think if it doesn't happen in May it could always happen in Sept.

My % breakdown for each cat fighting other guys (as of Feb. 8, 11:45am/est cuz sh!t could change on a dime)
Floyd vs Manny 60%
Floyd vs Amir 20%
Floyd vs Miguel 20%

Manny vs Floyd 60%
Manny vs TBA (most likely Jessie Vargas) 30%
Manny vs Amir 10%

Miguel vs TBA 70%
Miguel vs Floyd 20%
Miguel vs Amir 10%

Amir vs TBA 60%
Amir vs Floyd 20%
Amir vs Manny 10%
Amir vs Miguel 10%

Randomly if Floyd & Manny do fight in May I think the go to move for both Amir & Miguel would be to fight each other & hope Floyd vs Manny doesn't warrant a rematch cuz I think they could go to the front of the line for the winner in late 2015.

i think the argument is that khan is a draw like the other fighters mentioned, not really a talent
like them, except for a few people in denial about khan's record. i don't even see how khan
would sell more than any top 5 contender, though. if he took brook's title and went for a unification
it would be something i would definitely tune into, but they were talking about khan fighting floyd
even before he fought alexander, which was so monotonous.

Only one on your list that is a super fight is Mayweather vs Pacquiao for all the rest I would rather see Lomachenko fight Walters as my super fight.
