    Hold up - Floyd could beat Golovkin at 160 and Froch/Ward at 168? I bet he can't wait to try that. Fucks sake...

    Hold up...

    Who is the best at middle? Not Golovkin, its Martinez. If Mayweather moves up, he beats Martinez.

    They could weigh 154.5 and they could legitimately fight for the middle weight title.

    Floyd will never ever fight above 154.
    Floyd sr will never allow it.

    If bradley beats marquez he deserves the fight for may 3rd...but hes with top rank so yet again theres no way bob will make that happen.

    Trout wont sell.
    Martinez should have lost to murrey.
    Will khan beat alexander?
    Is Garcia ready yet?
    Pacman - toprank
    Bradley - toprank

    Why not give judah another payday..will be fun for 6 rounds!

    Or cotto 2.

    Canelo would prob beat all the fighters mentioned.

    Floyd is on another level..for such a small guy.

    In fact, im surprised Canelos fans havent tried crying that Floyd only came in at 146lb so how can he fight at light middle

    Canelo was a massive star and I think theyve shit the bed here. Mayweather could have fought Garcia while Canelo continued to build his star power. Now they have left themselves in a position where they have nothing better to move on to unless Mayweather fights Martinez at middle.

    None of those names are as big as Canelo was and showtime will realise this and push for something equally as big. They arent spending £200 million on Khan or Bradley

    Yep. They could have made even more money out of it.
    Fed canelo a few more welterweights amd make that fight further down the line.
    I feel as though there was a massive empty feeling after the fight..floyd could have retired there and then if he wanted too.
    As much as theres loads of uk fans for floyd i cant see him fighting in the uk and leaving vegas.
    Khan should fight the pac/rios winner if he beats alexander.

    The fact that Ross is seriously talking about Mayweather fighting and beating the best super-middles on the planet (and Ross isn't an idiot) just shows what a special special talent we are witnessing with Floyd.

    I think Canelo will end up being regarded as a brilliant fighter, in the best tradition of great Mexicans of the past. Jesus, Floyd is 36 now and he gave him a boxing lesson

    It's not Mayweathers fault he has cleaned out the divisions he has fought in. I still think that PAC of a few years ago would have been a legendary fight, but I'm not sure it would be now

    Enjoy the highest paid, and probably one of the very top athletes in the world while you can. Your grandchildren will be talking about him in the same sentence as Willie Pep, Pernell Sweet Pea, Joe Gans and all the other master boxers of their trade.

    Khan called Floyd out today. I think Floyd will fight him to get that sought after KO. Floyd fighting Khan will be more of the same.

    Now also seems a good time to mention the whole heavyweight, weight differences. We talk about a fight not being able to happen with Floyd because of 15lbs, yet Haye is giving away 3 stone to Fury this weekend! Is it really that much different? It wouldn't make it impossible.

    Floyd though is not going to want to disadvantage himself in any way though.
    That ZERO is very important to Floyd so I agree with you. Mayweather will not do anything that will even remotely jeopardize the ZERO. I wouldn't!

    I think Martinez is a less dangerous fight than Canelo. Canelo weighed 172lb against Trout (heavier than Froch weighed against Kessler!) whereas Martinez only enters the ring about 165/167lb and Martinez is near the end.

    Really ? He just went in with a guy who's 20lbs bigger and has real power lets not kid on here if Canelo landed a big shot on floyd chances are floyd would of not got up, floyd would fight anyone in his weight class
