    First off, where has it been said that he WILL be coming out of retirement?

    Anything concrete?

    Nothing concrete yet but there's so much rumors about PBF's impending return and July 11 is the date being suggested around that's why I started my 1st post of this thread "Granting PBF will..."

    So what are you talking about? Floyd will never, I repeat, NEVER fight a half decent Welter as a tune up.

    PBF is about money and prestige. He will take the most money and most prestige for the minimum risk. JMM fits the bill perfectly

    PBF-JMM will produce decent money since all Mexican fans will be behind JMM, the current #1 Mexican boxer at the moment after the Margarito fiasco...

    Prestige? Well aside from being the #1 Mexican boxer, JMM is also the #2 P4P boxer...

    Decent money and so much prestige awaiting for PBF if he chooses JMM as his tune-up fight...

    If he is looking for a perfect opponent then why not comeback and fight loud mouthed Nate Campbell? Iffy chin, left lightweight as a beltholder, struggled to make lightweight so 147 should not be a problem and can sell himself. I think the trash talking could sell the fight alone.

    You know, that's a great idea. I would pay to see that fight. Campbell is a clever veteran who is still hungry for money and recognition. He has a tricky style and he would be motivated to give a strong and entertaining performance. Good idea.

    ur right,I kind of assumed he was with all the talk on the forum lol. If he did come back though seing as its a "tune up" JMM would be the most lucrative opponent IMO.

    Everyone is picking Marquez, but i would like to see him fight a genuine Welterweight in any tune up fight. Clottey or Berto?
    Ultimately any Floyd comeback leads to a Mosley or Cotto match up before any thoughts of a Pacman or God forbid Hatton rematch! I am assuming he will be fighting at 147lb so why not a genuine top 10 current Welter?

    Clottey and Berto already have scheduled fights... Clottey to fight Cotto on June 13 (i pick Clottey to win this one) and Berto to fight Juan Urango on May 30...

    I agree but Berto's handlers would be stupid to put him in this fight.. REALLY stupid..

    Clottey would be very interesting, but i see it too much of a risk for Floyd against a big guy like Clottey.

    with that said.. i've got nothin.
