    Top 3 are the most interesting opponents, the rest are just to predictable. I DON'T wanna see Floyd vs Cotto or Floyd vs Canelo. The only ones that wanna see this are Floyd fans because 1. they know Floyd will beat them easily and 2. with Cotto, gets Floyd a MW title.

    Khan and Thurman are very young, in their prime and highly skilled. Khan's chin is questionable but he's very fast and has length. Thurman has power and decent speed... I don't think neither has a shot against 28-32 year old Floyd but at 38, these are dangerous fights.

    GGG, well, we know how dangerous this would be. GGG is not very fast but i think he can cut off the ring and will throw a lot of punches. He would be on full assault mode for 12 rounds.

    I think for Sep, Floyd should pick one of these 3; if he doesn't, he's clearly ducking and going with the easier opponent.

    I think Floyd against a grizzly bear would be quite dangerous. Depending on if he has to use his fists only tho.

    OT: GGG is probably the most dangerous fight Floyd could take but I don't really see him taking that risk.

    I think Khan is the most likley opponent for Floyd and can't see Floyd leting him last the disctance.

    You could just put 2 options - GGG and IDKSAB.

    GGG is the most dangerous because he can hurt Floyd but he's also the slowest of the top 3 in my list. Khan's speed can be tricky for floyd, and his length. Thurman is a young hungry highly skilled boxer with good power and speed.

    Yeah I agree Khan has some qualities that makes him a threat mainly his speed. Haven't really Watched Thurman enough tho from what I can remember he was kinda slow but packed a punch.

    I think whoever Floyd faces next is going to be a real hard task with the ammount of experience and skill Floyd brings to the table.

    GGGs style is tailor made for Floyd and he'll be a corpse at 154. At 160 Golovkin would be too big but fight will never happen there.

    Khan at 147 is much more of a threat to Floyd than a drained Golovkin

    Hopkins showed us he had a pair after all these years and took on Sergey

    Does Floyd have a pair?

    I think he's hiding a mangina
