I'm sure we can leave pac out of this one since we pretty much already know why.

Tim Bradley, because he's the man at 147.
Co-sign. The guy has earned it and sports a pretty nice ledger of opponents. Like to see the other guy though. Just to put an end to it.Quote:

I guess out of the possible opponents I wouldn't mind seeing Maidana or Garcia, althought I don't fancy either of their chances.
I think bradley deserves it too. I wouldn't mind watching maidana either. Either if them would be fun and entertaining. I know people really think he'd dance circles around maidana but maidana is one strong bad MOFO and has floored everyone he's fought I wouldn't be surprised if he actually clipped mayweather with something and hurt him enough get the ref to stop it. Id really like to watch a cotto rematch as well.
In a perfect world he should be facing Bradley next..
But boxing is fucked up so he's gonna face khan or maidana.. btw, KHAN is a much better opponent than maidana for floyd.. id rather watch khan fight him because he has a better shot..
Maidana? Lol shit would turn out like floyd-gatti...
Ya but one could also say that khan would turn out like Mayweather-Corrales. But I agree with you that maidana would also lose but he does pack a punch and as much as mayweather fights of the ropes he could get clipped with something and make it entertaining. But I do just give him a punchers chance.Quote:

Stylistically, khan matches up much better than maidana..
Chico had a better chin though ;) either one of them would be entertaining for me but if khan can box him and not get caught with something that hurts him and he can't recover from I do give him a better chance then maidana.Quote:

Because of the network/promotor feud, I'm going to discount any Arum fighter.
Of available opponents, I'd say Danny Garcia is the guy that has earned the fight more than anyone. After that I'd say Maidana. Really it should be one of them 2, but we know Khan is getting his shot.
Golovkin, Martinez or Quillin at 160. Because they are so much bigger than him it's interesting, and I'd actually pay to watch.
Or, he could fight Chavez Jr in an open weight contest where the winner takes the whole purse. We could see how much Jr really sucks without his making a dime, that would be fun.
Out of realistic options I agree Bradley, I think he'd have just as much chance as Khan(basically none mind you:D), never mind being infinitely more deserving.
Sergio would be realistic at light middle or even GGG.
Lara.
Bradley.
or Bob Arum and Larry Merchant tag team.
ABK!!! - anyone but Khan! Unfortunately I don't reckon I'll get my wish.
Id like to see bradely cause he wont quit, plus he has hand speed. Floyd doesnt like fighters with hand speed. Kahn would get destroyed. Id like to see him fight somebody with heart and the will to win.
Tim Bradley, he's undefeated, he's tough, he fights with heart, he never gives up, and he beat Pac & JMM. Tim Bradley should be the CONSENSUS A#1 choice for Floyd. He's not the big ticket fighter but he's earned that fight for himself.
Other than that: Sergio Martinez, GGG, Danny Garcia, Erislandy Lara, James Kirkland.
Khan then Martinez after he flattens cotto
Just retire after his contract is up. Cry again during press conference and talk about how people dont love him.. that was probably one of the most cringe worthy moments in boxing. Pretty good acting though. Such a phony ass character.
He will want 50 and will ask for a kings ransom from the networks to show him fight.Quote:

Khan is so over rated. although he is fast he has a glass chin and one impressive win in a career. Had there been one more round in his fight with Maidana he would have been KO'd. Maidana goes down but gets up more ruthless an has a punchers chance. Mayweather KO's almost no one. No way Maidana gets TKO like Gatti. Maidana has a better power and skill set than rockem sockem Gatti. Bradley = PPV, Maidana = Showtime for free, Khan - Cartoon Network. Pac = in our dreamsQuote:
