Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s next 5 fights- in no particular order!

[Beanz]

Floyd fighting outside of his weight class or comfort zone would help immeasurably with his legacy. He doesn't have to do jack but he would be doing himself a big favour.

I'm a little late on this. Curious to see who they Mayweather gets in there with this year, but I say if Pacquiao beats Rios well, then I say they choose Pac for early next May. I couldn't see anythig but Floyd countering him all night long. Mayweather must believe that he could do that.

You'd also have to think that the Canelo fight is 100% money in the bank, when ever they are ready to go, and with Canelo's age, that isn't going to change anytime soon unless Canelo needs to move to to 160.

Spot on. He's done it before too so he knows he can do the weight comfortably.

Canelo is a very reasonable fight for Floyd to take. It's a good fight for boxing, because if Canelo manages to beat Floyd, we have another boxing superstar to carry boxing into a post-Mayweather/Pacquaio future. I love guys like Andre Ward, but they just aren't going to carry the sport.

I'm glad this fight is being taken seriously now. If Floyd fought him just 2 short years ago, people would have shit on Floyd for picking on a young, unproven guy.

Of course they would have because he was a young, unproven guy then. I had always thought him to be incredibly overrated, until he beat Austin Trout, who was coming off a thrashing of Miguel Cotto. That was a real win. He proved himself in that fight. I thought Trout was going to take that one on the cards, and I was wrong. I'm not suggesting that by beating Trout Canelo is god's gift to the junior middleweight division, but I mean up until then, I'm not even sure he had faced a true junior middleweight.

floyd started at 130... he has already moved up weight classes. how much bigger do you need him to get? you want to see him do like toney?

Wait a minute, weren't you just agreeing with me that you would like to see him fight and beat Martinez and Canelo?

Yeah we agree he should fight those two, but the statement I was responding to seemed to suggest that Floyd should move out of his weight class and thereby out of his comfort zone and in doing so would help his legacy. I wanted to point out that he has moved up in weight and has defeated all comers at those higher weights... There will come a point where moving up in weight will put him at a disadvantage, like it has toney. I think Floyd should fight Canelo at 154 and Martinez at 160 without gaining weight. By coming in around 147 and staying small and quick he'll be maintain his speed and dexterity and be able to out manoeuvre them all the while landing at will.
