    He can now, with Cotto a free agent. Martinez is also a fight he could easily make.
    We'll see what he does.
    Did he really come back to put the finishing touches on his legacy?
    Or is he out to continue exploiting his relationship with GBP to continue making easy paydays vs their hyped fighters?

    I'll wait and see what happens. Remember people were saying Floyd woud fight Matthew Hatton and thankfully that didn't happen.

    and i already explained that after the Hatton the rest have been in-house fights(including the free agents) because they were ALL promoted by top rank.

    :patsch is that why arum is saying he doesnt want pacquiao to fight in may? is that why arum says he doesnt thinks pacs cut will heal in time? pacquiao is DUCKING either way you put it.

    i would not complain if he picks cotto next. schaefer is fixed on the may 5th date that it's non-negotiable anymore. but i think it would still be canelo.

    so if Cotto joins GBP hes automatically a "hyped" fighter?

    we would see more where this would lead up in a few more days or weeks. floyd has to announce an opponent immediately or risk being summoned by the judge for making an excuse not to be jailed.

    No, he's a free agent, similar to what Mosley and Marquez were. Ortiz, Canelo definately were/are until they prove otherwise.

    it doesn't change the fact that pac fought them as free-agents. meanwhile floyd only fought GBP fighters exclusively since 2007. now we would probably see another likely GBP opponent for floyd come cinco de mayo for the mexican fans. floyd-canelo write it down.

    ortiz victory over berto was far from hyped. say what u want about berto but he was the WBC champion, undefeated and a great fighter

    True. Outside of Cotto and Pacquiao no other legit choices for him. Alvarez though? Horrible choice and a clear cherrypick.

    yes cotto would seem an acceptable fight for floyd. canelo, maybe too soon and clearly a set-up.
