Mayweather is letting the fans vote...Khan or Maidana?

Neither ... I want to see him fight GGG!

Although given the Arum/Golden Boy issues... probably never happen :(

Its not a promotional issue preventing it, its the other, bigger issue of the networks. Golovkin is with K2, but he's also with HBO.

The strange thing is that his name really never came up. His insistence took us by surprise. It's not that Gennady doesn't want to fight [Erislandy Lara] - he'll fight anyone and continues to prove that. But we were looking at fighters who we know can and will fight on HBO.

Either way, I don't believe that fight happens even without everything thats going on.

It's official! Mayweather vs Maidana on May 3rd
 
After the death of his father, any plans for Gennady Golovkin are on hold until further notice.
 
Froch vs Groves rematch will take place at Wembley Stadium.
 
Chavez about to be on.


Mayweather choosing Maidana is suspect to me but he does have a belt.

Chavez/Vera rematch was the best looking one-sided fights I've seen!

I believe Mayweather/Maidana is a WBA/WBC unification.
 
Chavez is a fun (and funny) fighter to watch. I like watching his matches.

Weirded me out though when he gave his dad a kiss on the lips just before the fight started. Wtf was that all about.
