This fight will be made. It is smart business-wise for the Mayweather camp for 2 reasons.

1. Bradley has a win over Pacquiao(no matter what you think you saw). If Maywether beats Bradley(which is almost a guarantee), then he doesnt have to fight Pacquiao because he beat the guy who beat him. OR, he can go into negotiations for a Pacquiao fight with a larger chunk of the purse. What was 55 - 45 will easilit become 65 - 35 or worse.

2. Bradley is at least on paper a legit fight, so all the Sergio Martinez vs Mayweather talk goes away. Mayweather will kill 2 birds with one stone. He can avoid the threat that Martinez poses and save face because his fans will argue that Bradley was a better opponent anyway.

I think Floyd's waiting for one of these welterweights to pull some Fight of the Year-type shit, and it will all boil down to it by the end of December, after the Peterson/Bradley rematch happens.

Whoever Floyd fights next, he's make sure he exceeds Manny's payday against JMM, which I believe is a $23M guarantee. So Floyd's gotta find a guy who heightens the purse bid, and is sure to make about $3M (or under), while Floyd hits or exceeds $25M.

I laugh my ass off at people crying for the Pac fight, and have no idea about the business of the sport.

Fan w/ sense: "Floyd makes more money in his fights, and has been making more than Manny for a while. He doesn't have a promoter, so he makes and keeps most of his money".
Fan w/ none: " Naw, see because uhhh, that's because Floyd dont have no promoter man. Manny got a promoter, that's why he dont make that much. Why dont they just make the fight happen? Manny can just tell Bob Anum that he wanna fight, den dats is all they gotta do. Floyd scared man, he scared. Floyds a coward, fraud Gayweather".

See how dumb that sounds? How is having a promoter who takes your money and makes shitty fights, an okay thing? Weird. I just tell them to stop crying and scratching their itchy vaginas over a fight. Just STFU! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
