The Donaire/ Mares fight probably will never happen, but that's not Donaires' fault ( or Mares). That's due to their managers and their beef. That is one of the 2-3 top fights to make out there in the world right now. Real good fight.

Some of you don't have Nonito as elite? That's one of the problems in boxing. You lose 1 time in nearly a decade and people already writing you off.

Trout is elite too. Clear #2 @ 154 and took the best Jr. MW in the world to the limit

i've said this before, boxing is the hardest and most unfair sport in the world.
any other sport you can have a off night, or take a few losses and it's okay. In boxing, a loss or 2 and you are fukked

elites: Mayweather, Ward, Marquez, Klitschkos. the end

the point about naming elites is that you dont have to make lists or think too hard. cause they are the best of the best and you should name them without a second thought. if you think too hard about a guy, he's not elite.
:usure:

Eh.. you can maybe say this about other sports but boxing is kind of iffy to follow this logic because a lot of times promotion of a fighter is what puts them front and center instead of the skill or the level of competition they have faced. Then everyone acts shocked when they get exposed...

This fight on 9/7 and Floyd's fight on 9/14? :whew:

Would Garcia/Matthysse be a PPV event too?

nah it would prolly be on showtime in a double or triple header type scenario but a standalone PPV prolly not..neither them don't have that type of following yet for it

and donaire is an elite fighter...you can't disregard the work he put in over the years just because of 1 loss

Khan will have to ditch ramadhan if he signs to fight Floyd, and will Hunter not be too game yet unless Khan moves to Oakland and trains and learns every day! Alexander is a best bet!

Alexander's a good fighter and probabley derseves it, but lets be real if this fight gets made Showtime will probabley would go bankrupt. :heh:

I still think its Khan.... fighting Floyd is once in a lifetime opportunity. If he passes this up, he'll probably will never have another chance again. Plus GDP and Schafner have been talking about Amir Khan vs. Mayweather for the past two years.

dont garcia and matthysse have the same team around them. i thought LM was with dibella or somebody but i saw him hugged up with sam watson. if thats true somehow i feel like we might not see DG/LM. thats a lose/lose for the promoters for them to take each other out like that before milking them with other fights out there

Yes LM is now managed by sam watson's crew..Richard Scaffer wants and is setting up the fight for september. Golden Boy can't miss a fight like this!
