    To me, Floyd could bypass one of those two fights and just fight Manny and retire.

    Really, no one else would or could do. No one else can give him a fight.

    Khan may get one of these last two fights by default... that is all.

    Floyd's realistic opponents, at Welter or Jr. Middle. Not in any particular order.

    1. Manny Pacquiao. (the only fight real and casual fans want to see)

    2. Timothy Bradley. (could be an interesting match up, seeing who's skill for skill... Floyd would win handily)

    3. Amir Khan. (Khan is damaged goods, really. KO losses primarily. But, he was robbed by Peterson. And, even though he was robbed by Peterson, when you look at Khan's fights, he very rarely loses rounds. In fact, when you take the KO rounds and the Peterson fight out of the equation, Khan wins almost all of the rounds in his fights... convincingly.)

    4. Kell Brook. (Brook has made a good case for him getting a good fight with Mayweather since his clear victory vs. Porter. Made Porter look like a wild swinging brawler. Good skill sets from Brook and it wouldn't be unlikely for a fight to be made... a long shot... but a fight could be made.)

    5. Demetrius Andrade. (the longest shot on this list, by far. But, like Khan, a fight can and may be made by default. Everyone else either being busy or the numbers just may not add up to make it any better than fighting Andrade. If Floyd wants to unify the titles at Jr. Middle, he can go this route and do so with ease!)

    Floyd may ultimately go the route of title unification for his last two fights. Carlos Molina and Demetrius Andrade are more than beatable. He may be able to beat both of them on the same night.

    Could unification be on Floyd's mind as a coup-de-gras on his final exit from the sport?

    They have to be big name money making fights which only means Khan and Pacquiao.

    Floyd wins both. They may be close but not really competative, like Maidana.

    Maidana landed a beautiful counter right when Floyd was throwing his own pull back counter right. It was a great punch and the only time I ever remember seeing Floyd get caught throwing that shot. Other than that, I didn't really see Maidana land any real hurting shots. He touched Floyd's chin and body for sure but like usually it was mostly shots that were grazing, partially blocked or Floyd was rolling with.

    Goes to show you that with the little he handed, he hurt Mayweather.

    He rocked him at the end of round 3 for sure. Shame he couldn't do it with any consistency.

    Floyd even lost a tooth on that shot:
