If I was him Id be targetting the Smith v Molina winner and if he wins that the winner of the Cotto v Alvarez fight for a unification fight.

Nah. If he wants to stay relevant after beating Cotto and losing to Alvarez then he's got to jump into the fire. I think Lara is a little overrated and Angulo is a bit of a one trick pony. Smith v Molina is a pretty good option but Smith is a Mayweather fighter and Trout is a Haymon fighter. It's probably more likely that Floyd fights Smith lol although I believe he will fight at 147 at least one more time. I doubt very much that he ever gets a rematch with Cotto or Alvarez.
