Mosley: I want Floyd Next!

[Olympian904]

Mosley-Floyd is the logical matchup at 147 for later this year. If Cotto can dispatch Zab and then beat another quality guy in late '07 (Margarito?), then that would set up a Floyd-Cotto showdown in mid-'08.

Assuming Floyd beats Oscar, I make him a solid favorite to beat Shane.
Shane is fast, but not as fast as Floyd, and Floyd is much much more versatile.

I agree with the Cotto part...but I'd like Mosley to fight either Hatton/Cotto/Williams,etc..b4 seeing him take on PBF.I just wasnt convinced that after one good fight he is at that level again

But from Mosley's perspective, why would he fight one of those guys for less money and risk losing a bigger money fight with Floyd? It makes no business sense. He's already made that mistake once by fighting Winky and losing the chance to fight Tito. I don't see why he'd make the same mistake again.

Mosley needs one of those names to get PBF's attention.PBF gaines nothing by fighting Mosley.Mosley just doesnt hop back on the radar with ONE decent fight.Sure the "Fourm" fans wanna see a mosley vs mayweather fight...but unless mosley comes up with a big win over a known opponent,it'll never happen.

Get PBF's attention? Hop back on the radar?
Name a potential opponent at 147 who has a bigger name than Mosley.
Can you list the victories that Cotto, Margarito, Hatton, or Williams have on their resumes that are better than Mosley's?

I dont see how its even up for debate.Floyd said that after the DLH fight he wants to go over to england and fight Hatton.Mosley is still a big name to cotto,margo and all of the other welters but Floyd gave him a chance on 3 seperate occasions.Keep waiting for a mosley vs floyd fight...b/c it will never happen.
