I like Khan but I think it would be a joke for him to get in the ring with Floyd. I think Floyd could make even GGG look silly. The only guy who could have made it interesting was Manny. You would think Floyd would have insisted on fighting him to prove his dominance. If Floyd thinks Manny looks Shaky against Rios maybe we will see them fight next year. As it is I think we might start hearing Garcia's name thrown around which would be another easy win for Floyd.
Man, I just don't know what to say. How can a guy like Floyd still surprise you? I was so wrong and it is not because Canelo was off or overrated. I know people like to underrate opponents after they get wiped. I thought Floyd was just talking when he said he is even sharper for this fight. At 36 Floyd really does still have the best reflexes/timing in the game. I've never seen anything like this before. Canelo saw a better Floyd than Cotto or Mosley saw. Floyd Sr has a lot to do with bringing back the sharp shooting and then disappearing. His rope play and even his shoulder roll was better. When "that" Floyd shows up the only way to beat him is not planned. You have to seriously get lucky. You're going to be beat to the punch trying to run a plan. I don't see anyone beating him. The better question is where does he go from here? Who can be next? Lets be realistic. Bhop or anyone at 160 is not happening. Floyd didn't even make it up to 152. On fight night he weighed less than he did at the weigh in. He's not going to give up that kind of weight advantage as well as he shouldn't. Bhop is just trying to lure his way into that lottery. Does Danny Garcia get the automatic walk in? I think he is the most deserving. To skip Garcia I think both Pac and Khan need to win more than their next fight unless Pac looks marvelous in stopping Rios. Who do you think should get the next shot at Floyd? What if Bradley looks impressive against Marquez? Arum is going to have to concede at this point.
No one has mentioned Bradley?
Would make sense if they did.
Not if Bomb Arum has anything to do with it.Quote:

Mayweather wont fight anyone who has a chance of beating him. He picks his opponents so carefully
There now really is t anyone that could seriously be marketed as a genuine threat to Floyd. There will be interesting match ups like Khan, Garcia etc but no one would believe they might even win.
Floyd could move up to middle and defeat Martinez.
That fight would sell pretty well I think, if it happened Martinez would be fired right up for itQuote:

Does Martinez fight any heavier than Canelo? Hes still regarded as the best at middle but is on his last legs and it gets Floyd another mega fight in a new division, although hed still weigh less than 150;D
Think he's only slightly heavier than Canelo he's usually about 166 to 170 on fight night I think, Martinez is a far better fight than Garcia
I think Wladimir Klitschko could probably do it...
