    I'd fight Jones jr today and at the rate he is going he'd probally do it for a cheese sandwich, a ten spot and some promised camera time on the local cable channel. Besides I have a .000.1/10% chance of landing a brick, as long as its a literal one, and could say I was tko'd by a HOF

    I would not fight Wlad. If I wanted that much hugging I'd crash drunken Highschool reunions or funerals. Nope on Anne wolfe too. Hell nah!!

    I would love to wipe that smile from Floyds face. If I had to take PED to do it I would just so I could punch non-stop for every second of every round for the full 36 minutes. I swear to you I would catch him.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I think I have the mentality to make a Floyd fight competitive. Honestly. Trained up and rested, Floyd would get HELL FIRE AND BRIMSTONE from me.

    It would depend on how many lengths I was managing in the swimming pool.

    I'd fight midgets, mongoloids and bearded ladies, and stay the hell away from travellers and bears.

    I'd use the same criteria that fighters have been using for 100 years to pick their fights: risk vs. reward.

    Assuming I'm an up and coming prospect, of course the obvious I would want to fight the big names, because I stand to gain more financially and in rank. Of course that means the guys at the top of the sport with the biggest fan support: Mayweather, Pac, Ward, Martinez, Froch, ect.

    There are also cash-cows who have a lot of fan support, who even though aren't ranked at the top, could still offer a lot of heat and cash if you fight them. Guys like JCC Jr. Gatti was a great example of this (a fact that Floyd Mayweather exploited).

    Guys I don't want to fight are big risk fighters who offer little to average reward. We all know who these guys are. Lara is a great example, GGG used to be it but since he's gotten so much press lately I think he's moved into the "high risk/high reward" catagory.
    Paul Williams was a great example in his prime.

    Bernard Hopkins, even though he's a huge name in the sport, is now in this catagory IMO due to his age. Beat him and people will say "ah well, he finally got old", and on the other hand he has the ability to make you look like utter shit, so I wouldn't wanna fight Bhop.

    Assuming I was well over 8 feet tall, allowed to wear armour, and had large serrated knives fused between the tendons in my hands wolverine style, I would fight convicted rapists and child molesters who would otherwise scare me a lot.

    hahahahahahaha..... I'd hit Wlad in the nuts a few times and bodyslam him when he leans in to smother me. I'd take the points. It'd probably end in a DQ for me, but I would have the moral victory.
