I can't see it happening. 4 fights left and I don't think anyone from light welter up to light middle will be able to get near him.
Would he/ does he need to, go up to middle weight and fight Golovkin? I think that might be a step too far, but its the only way I think he has any chance of losing.
He is a 36 year old boxer with 17 years of pro boxing in his legs, legs he relies to a large degree. Plus the reflexes cannot be quite as quick as they once were. They are signs that he could slip, but so far so good, and if he performs at the level he did this morning, then I cannot see anyone under 160lbs beating him anytime soon.

I don't think he has the skills either, but he has some serious power in those fists. Enough to trouble anyone, let alone someone who should really be two weight classes below him.
No don't think there's even anyone out there that can even make it a competitive fight. I honestly think the best fight would be against someone like khan I think khans hand speed is a little faster than floyds and I think that would be interesting for at least 6 rounds then floyd stops him. It needs to be someone that has very fast hands and a high punch output if pacman wins and looks good that's another fight I would like to see.
I gotta agree I think the speed of Khan and Pacman would give him problems and besides dropping to 140 to fight Garcia or go to middleweight there really is no one out there to really challenge him or make the kind of money he did for Canelo. Unless they start hyping up undefeated Kell Brook by next May.Quote:

Who knows who cares if there was somebody he wouldn't fight them anyway
Anyone see the video of Hopkins wanting to meet him at 160 for a fight ?
Lets see how Brandon Rios Goes against Pac Man, maybe he can get a shot at Mayweather during the last 4 Mayweather fightsQuote:

Floyd Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez, a must see fight - ESPN
Only a top middleweight has any chance at middleweight. there is no Noriss, McCallum or Hearns around.

Call me crazy because the guy can be beaten by just about anyone on a given night but I think Khans style presents difficulty for Floyd. Should he get past Devon I can see him at the front of the line.
Khan has the height,reach and speed to cause Floyd a little problem but as soon as Floyd taps that chin it will be over.Quote:
