What could have been is no longer a question. Manny Pacquiao might never fight in the United States again, while Floyd Mayweather is headed towards the biggest fight, at least in terms of money, of the last few years, facing Canelo Alvarez which afterwards, if Mayweather wins his 45th career fight, it’s really going to get really boring.

Canelo wants the fight, and Floyd has never turned down an opponent. Those are the words uttered by Richard Schaefer, as Golden Boy Promotions has begun working on trying to bring the most lucrative possible fight in the world of boxing at the moment, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Saul Canelo Alvarez into the ring by September.

Like most Floyd Mayweather fights, this one was over before it began. Robert Guerrero talked well before the bout, but couldn’t even get close to the best boxer in the world, who won by a unanimous decision through all scorecards, retaining his WBC Welterweight belt, adding The Ring honor and most importantly, staying undefeated while keeping his place as the number one pound-4-pound fighter in the world.

While the Robert Guerrero fight is Floyd Mayweather making his official comeback to the world of boxing, there seems to be something different this time. Not just the fact that he’s fighting on Showtime instead of HBO, but also because he inserted a rematch clause into the contract, meaning there’s a little less confidence than before, although the hunger for money is always there.

Two years ago, when Amir Khan beat Zab Judah to become the IBF and WBA Light Welterweight champion, it was reasonable to talk about him having a fight with Floyd Mayweather once he moved up to Welterweight. But almost two years have gone by, and the two fighters are in very different places, making the suggestions about a potential fight between them seem quite ridiculous. More
The WBA is such a terrible organization that it has two boxers, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Floyd Mayweather Jr. holding the same title, the WBA Light Middleweight title. But as we know championships don’t matter, only money and PPV numbers do, there’s a very good chance we won’t get to see who is the “real” champion of yet another title belt is. More
When Floyd Mayweather announced he’s planning on fighting twice in 2013, the initial projected opponents were Robert Guerrero, which happened as predicted, and a later fight in a higher weight against Saul Canelo Alvarez, which is probably the biggest boxing match PPV money can buy these days. More
The new deal Floyd Mayweather signed with Showtime offers him greater prosperity than ever before, but while the final six fights of his career are probably mostly about money for him, Robert Guerrero, his next opponent, is looking at this as more than an opportunity to earn his biggest payday ever. More
The big surprise regarding the next fighter Floyd Mayweather will take on in the ring wasn’t the identity, Robert Guerrero, who was the first name to come up when Mayweather announced the dates of his 2013 fights, but for choosing Showtime as his PPV route to the masses. More
How will Floyd Mayweather be remembered, when his days inside the boxing ring are over? As one of the greatest boxers of all-time, undefeated, winning pretty much every possible title he could get his hands on? Or as a man who chased money, and not glory, taking the easy road when he could have done stuff that would have gone down in the legend books? More
