You guys are right,I'd much much rather see Shane v Floyd than Hatton Floyd but Hatton's team has done their job,made him a name(of sorts) in America and he has a loyal fanbase who will come to watch him fight meaning more $$$ for Floyd.

Like I said earlier,Shane should fight,may be Cintron,then unify with the winner of the WW tournament and then call out Floyd.
Gamo, let's speak the truth between us, hermaƱito, everybody want a piece of that Floyd azz hell yeah but the guy still sucked on tiny tit May 5, Oscar got the big piece of the cake and downright dumped him on the rematch he so desperately wanted... Before that, Floyd made as much money with Tata Baldomir and with Zab as Shane made with Vargas twice... Now, Floyd wants Big Money fights and complains that Shane is not a big draw anymore, that Miguel is just a "lil good fighter", that Tony is not in "the same plateau" as him, c'mon... The guy doesn't want to fight and badmouthed some 140 pounder, once WBA welter Champ ( God knows how) to get away with it... What I'm saying is that Shane's options have nothing to do with Floyd or with that particular fight, if Floyd avoids Shane, he'll lose credibility among the boxing public and that loyal fanbase, not to speak of HBO, the Ring Magazine, the Commissions themselves. Let's come up to that, Shane vs Floyd will not happen then, Shane obviously goes after Cintron, Cotto or Tony/Williams but Floyd would be definitely out out of the equation... Puya has said it best, Floyd is just waiting for Shane to grow old fast overnight, well, Floyd is the one who actually got himself retired...
