I hope it is but it probably will not be him probably someone like Alexander. Do not think anything has been announced.Quote:

Floyd may pretend he has a hand injury and get that date delayed.Quote:

He is going to be picking creditable opponents. Floyd, as he should, is going to do what is best for him first and what makes the most money second, in my opinion.Quote:

An AlExander match up would be just another Floyd ho-hum
I follow him on instagram and he just put up a post saying he's fighting Canelo in September!!!!
I was going to like this post but I love this postQuote:

I can even see a rematch Marquez off destroying opputunity missed in Manny match. Shame on both Mayweather and Manny for that bs. Floyd would toy with Alexander but they'd both claim hurt hands at end. Khan is def at the top of the list.
Floyd tweeted tonight canelo on 9/14. Makes no sense though. It is same day as JMM/Bradley. Both in Vegas. Both PPVs. They will split too many buys.
Not to get on a Floyd rant but why does Showtime continue to use that cheap shot Floyd took on Ortiz as a Highlight for his fights. I know it was legal, I know Ortiz was being goofy but is that shot really highlight worthy.
They'll continue to go head to head and make fans flip a coin. Just noticed news, but at "catchweight" 152 lbs? Two pound difference...Bfd. I wish guys as of late would put as much heated effort out in the ring as they do about the current catchweight bs and politricks.Quote:

The fight has been confirmed and its a 152 catch. Like to know who asked for that. I bet Oscar mediated.
Marquez-Bradley is October 12Quote:

Fantastic the fight was made. It's odd Floyd went for a catchweight when he slammed Pacquiao for doing it, but they that's Floyd. This is the best possible fight we were going to see Floyd in. Good for him. I think this will be his best win since his fights at the lower weights.
Yes I can't wait for this floyd is going to school Canelo, I hope they made an agreement that Canelo can't be 170+ on fight night cause that's Canelos only hope being to big for floyd and hiting him with a lucky punch
This is the hardest realistic fight out there for Floyd and I give him credit for taking the fight. I do not like the fact it is 152 when he allowed Cotto to fight at the full weight. This will be a big challenge for Floyd and will certainly enhance his legacy. This will not be easy.
