Despite a disappointing exit in the semifinals at the US Open, Serena Williams managed to quickly regroup and turn her attention to her show at New York Fashion Week for HSN. And in perhaps the most unsurprising news ever, the 22-time Grand Slam champion looked ever-the-fashionista on the red carpet ahead of the show.And several of her famous friends were in attendance, including La La Anthony and Natasha Hastings. Joining those two in the front row during the presentation? Venus Williams, Caroline Wozniacki, Ciara, Anna Wintour AND 95-year-old fashion icon Iris Apfel. So yes, I would say thats a pretty decent squad Serena has acquired. MOVE OVER, TAYLOR SWIFT.See something entertaining on social media that you think deserves to be shared?

Manny Pacquiao is world champion again and so begins the speculation and negotiations to be his next opponent in 2017.After unanimously outpointing Jessie Vargas to reclaim his WBO world welterweight title on Saturday, Pacquiao (58-6-2, 38 KOs) has various money-spinning options -- but one stands out above the rest.Now we know the Filipino has no intention of retiring just yet, who is he likely to face next?Floyd Mayweather (49-0, 26 KOs)The ringside presence of Mayweather for Pacquiaos win over Vargas sparked speculation about a rematch next year -- and it is the most lucrative fight for Pac-Man.The Filipino invited his retired rival to Saturdays fight and wants to face Mayweather again after blaming a shoulder injury on his points defeat to the American in May 2015.Their first fight was a disappointment and while there might not be as much clamour to see the two ageing fighters again -- Pacquiao is 38 next month, Mayweather is 40 in February -- it is still the fight that holds the most appeal for Pacquaio, who earned over $100 million for fighting Mayweather last year.Their first fight -- the richest in boxing history after generating more than $600 million -- was long awaited and long overdue after protracted talks. Negotiations may be easier second time around and Mayweather might be tempted out of retirement by the chance to extend his record to 50-0.The decision will ultimately be Mayweathers on whether there is a rematch on May 6, 2017. Mayweather could delay a rematch until September 2017, during which Pacquiao could have an interim fight and stoke interest about facing Mayweather again.The ball is in Mayweathers court.Terence Crawford (29-0, 20 KOs)The WBC-WBO world light-welterweight champion was another in attendance at the Thomas & Mack Centre in Las Vegas on Saturday to check on Pacquiaos form.Crawford and Pacquiao share a promoter, Bob Arum, which means this fight has fewer problems than negotiating with Mayweather.Pacquiao also says he would drop down a division to meet American Crawford at 140 pounds.Crawford, 29, from Nebraska, is due to defend his belts against John Molina Jr on December 10 and, providing he wins, would be available to fight before May.Before Pacquiao-Vargas, Arum said: Its possible to do an April fight if Manny and Crawford are successful.If talks for Mayweather-Pacquiao II stall, Crawford is next in line to face the Pac-Man.Vasyl Lomachenko (6-1, 4 KOs)Third choice is the Ukrainian WBO world super-featherweight champion, who many expect to become the next multi-weight world champion star after Pacquaio is gone.Pacquiao, a world champion in eight divisions, has said he is willing to drop down from 147 pounds to meet Lomanchenko.Arum promotes them both and Lomachenko is one opponent who could match Pacquiaos renowned hand speed.But other opponents are better known to a U.S. audience and will generate more money than Lomachenko, who only has his eighth professional fight against Nicholas Walters in Las Vegas on Nov.dddddddddddd 26.Double Olympic champion Lomachenko is already a two-division world champion but is there enough global interest in him yet to earn him a crack at Pacquiao, who only wants the big money fights now?Danny Garcia (32-0, 18 KOs) or Keith Thurman (27-0, 22 KOs)The chance to unify the world welterweight belts will be an appealing one for Pacquiao if Mayweather stays retired.And that could mean fighting the winner of Garcia-Thurman, who fight on March 4. Garcia, who meets Samuel Vargas in a non-title bout on Saturday, stepped up a division to capture the vacant WBC belt via a unanimous verdict against Robert Guerrero in January and has not fought since.Garcias fellow American and rival world welterweight champion Thurman has also only fought once this year. WBA title-holder Thurman unanimously out-pointed Shawn Porter in June and is not due to fight again until he faces Garcia.Garcia-Thurman promises to be a high-profile clash -- and just may catapult the winner towards an even bigger showdown with Pacquaio.Kell Brook (36-1, 25 KOs)Waiting in the wings if all else fails is Britains IBF world welterweight champion -- but he may not be available for May.Brook has yet to decide if he will relinquish his belt and step up a division or defend it against mandatory challenger Errol Spence next.Brook is recovering from a broken eye socket sustained in a knockout defeat to Gennady Golovkin in September and is not due to box again until the spring, which makes a welterweight fight in May with Pacquiao seem unlikely -- unless he gives up his IBF belt.Brook is also behind others in the queue to face Pacquiao, but if he remains a rival world welterweight champion then a unification clash later next year is possible.Im after the biggest and best fights out there, those are the ones that are going to get me up for it, Brook told ESPN. Once you have become world champion, you need special fights to really keep you motivated in training. A world title unification fight would do that.Amir Khan (31-4, 19 KOs)Brooks fellow Briton Amir Khan has also spoken about his desire to fight Pacquiao, but his chances are even more remote.Khan was knocked out by Canelo Alvarez in his last fight after stepping up two divisions to challenge the Mexican for his WBC world middleweight title and last held a world title belt five years ago.There are bigger names for pay-per-view television in the United States than Khan, who used to train alongside Pacquiao.Khan is also recovering from surgery on his right hand and is not expected to box until the summer. Khan has not given up on facing Pacquiao but may need to earn his chance first with a high-profile win over the likes of someone like Brook. ' ' '
