Mayweather v Maidana with Khan v Broner on the undercard...?

[Spicoli]

If I was Broner I'd be insisting on a rematch first, get some redemption, or try at least. How fooking silly is he going to look waiving pom poms, peeking over his shoulder as Mayweather absolutly toys with the man who just knocked him around like a back alley drunk. I don't get it.

I don't think Broner gives two spits about how things really are, I think he only cares about perception with the people he'll speak to and how much he's paid. He can continue to push the "off night" angle while talking about how he demanded an immediate rematch. His yes men will eat it up. Floyd won't pay the sanctioning fees so the belt will be available. It gives GBP so many different options with Maidana, Thurman, Khan, Broner, Porter. It gives the Broner/Khan winner a bunch of options. Basically the entire card sells to one demographic or another while really meaning nothing and every possible outcome makes money except a Floyd loss which is a near certainty not to happen. It's the new Coke card, you have to try it so it sells quick but really it just sells Coke Classic in the long run.

I imagine that Floyd sees it like this:

"Since the fans don't see Khan as worthy challenger, I'ma give Kahn a shot at my impersonator and also seeing as Maidana put in the work against my impersonator, let's see what he can do against the real deal."

It's a bit like some A team, B team business.
