    Marquez and Hatton shouldn't be an option.

    No one wants a Hatton rematch and Marquez is too small.

    I would love to see a Pacquiao or Mosley fight though.

    The only fights that would be acceptable for Floyd to tke are Cotto or Mosley.

    Wouldnt be surprised to see Floyd Cotto in july... Especially if Clottey isint a done deal yet for Cotto...

    A win vs Cotto and then beat Pac... would make Floyd undisputed best fighter of this generation and top 5 alltime

    Im surprised Cottos name isnt on that list, lol I know he's tied down to Clottey as of right now ,but still sometime in the near future they should get it on

    I think Money will face the winner of Hatton/pac first (after a possible tune up). Than Maybe Mosley or even Cotto. Those are the biggest money fights.

    If Money comes back like he left I dont see him losing to any of the fighters I just mentioned.

    I would like to see PBF enter back in against Berto or Collazo at 147
    THEN go for a mega-fight.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I could be wrong but i dont think we will ever see PBF in the ring with Collazo or Berto for the same reason we wont see Hopkins fight Dawson.

    I noticed Paul Williams is left out of the equation when possible opponents are being mentioned. I think he is one of the most avoided fighters right now. And he will be even more avoided when and if he gets by the Winkster.

    Cotto or Mosely would both be very interesting, both would be Floyd's hardest ever fight imo

    Well i dont like Mayweather very much his style has not changed to my liking at all in his later years i do rate him in the top 30. kinda agree though with jt on the fact it is Cotto thats the number one win right now i dont see that as the case i think Mosley is the one to make a mark. He had a fight with Cotto could of gone either way and then Destroyed Margarito and i dont care wraps or not no way Cotto could of done it like Mosley did even if he would of won it would not of been like that. Cotto is not fastest guy and he chinny at times not to mention stamina problems. Mosley to me is the real test he has speed to match, chin of steel, power and not to mention he does not have stamina problems in late rounds. Dela Hoya is done i dont even want to see him fight anymore he was like a zombie and still cant belive the weight he came in with.

    I agree totally, it's Cotto or Mosley or forget it Floyd, Williams is off chasing $ fighting Winky and i don't see either Hatton,Pac or JMM posing any threat to Floyd. He could fight both Cotto and Mosley before the end of the year. The winner of Pac V Hatton should fight JMM and maybe then take on Floyd next year.

    Why? If Mayweather brings more money to the table, Why should JMM get a shot at the winner? JMM has never fought at 140lbs! There is Bradly, Holt and hell even Mighty Mick Arnaoutis who have more claim over facing a 140lbs champion. "Should", suggests JMM has some kind of right to fight the winner? JMM is lightweight Champ and his next fight "should" be defending his belts! It's about money and Pac/Hatton have the biggest draw in the game right now and the winner most likely will face the next biggest draw. If that is JMM then so be it But there is absolutely no right here....

    JMM getting the winner of PAC-Hatton is like JMM hitting the lotto... IMO JMM most probably takes the loser of PAC-Hatton... Or JMM could be the tune-up fight of PBF this coming July 11...

    .
    JMM would only go above 135 to chase Pac or if Hatton wins, the man who beat Pac. JMM really wont be nearly as effective above 135 imo. As for fighting Floyd, I think Marquez is a greater fighter, but with the weight and size difference it would be a mismatch and Floyd would ko him within 6 rnds.
