    I would say these are the most popular fights that could be made right now, in the case of Cotto its not because he is on top of the game anymore like the other but simply because the event would be huge.

    If we got any two of these fights next year I would be a happy fan.
    I agree with all of those and would like to add Ward vs. Martinez to the wish list.

    Martinez/Floyd for me. No catch.

    Manny Marquez would be the biggest fight in boxing right now financially. Floyd Martinez might run it close financially but (debatably) boxing fans would rather see it.

    I don't believe Martinez would generate that kind of money outside the hardcore boxing fans.

    To reach the wider audience, I think Pacquiao vs. Marquez V and Mayweather vs. Canelo are probably the 2 biggest financially rewarding fights in the sport right now.

    Vitali vs Wlad will be THE most intriguing fight in the sport mainly because it is almost guaranteed never to happen.

    Now realistically speaking I would say Mayweather vs Sergio would be hell of a thing. If Mayweather beats Sergio I would bow down and call him the greatest of this era.

    Disagree slightly Sergio Martinez v Floyd Mayweather for the middleweight title with Sergio having to make 156lb which is what B Hop had to do against Oscar.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    My take is that Floyd would not do a catch even if it continues to be offered. I think he'd want a real p4p scrap. In addition I believe and have said it before that he would like to in some way equal what Leonard did minus the 3 year hiatus
