    It will be Khan if he beats Canelo and it will be another 155 catchweight for the lineal MW title.

    If not it's a toss up between Khan and Garcia, if I was putting some dollar down I would say Garcia.

    If Khan beats Canelo he will beat Floyd if they fought Bad matchup for Floyd. Very fast, Taller and could out box floyd . Floyd doesn't hit hard so what is the threat to Khan. It will just keep Golovkin away fr consolidate the title

    I agree to point, I always thought Khan is all wrong for FMJ

    Garcia on the other hand is tailor made and would prob win every round.

    The lure of a lineal belt at MW though, I think his ego will get the better of him.

    ^^Khan is taller and has faster hands, that's about it. Floyd is clearly the superior boxer and he has more than enough power to hurt Khan.

    FLoyd's timing on his counterpunches would beat Khan 10 out of 10 times. Timing beats speed, especially when it's coming from someone as accurate as Mayweather.

    Current Floyd can't hurt even a fly.soon 39yrs or what?i give Khan chance here.Floyd is completely washed physically to compete at top.only other worldy skills have allowed Floyd to stay in top.

    if Khan beats Canelo (unlikely)

    Then they should fight at 160 for the lineal, both are small. So no need to dilute the title!

    If Khan loses, then Floyd will face Undefeated Danny Garcia :bbb

    Triple G or no one. Anyone else is a waste of time at this point for him. He's got the money and no one else helps his legacy so Triple G or stay retired.

    GGG falls within Floyd Mayweather predatory range, but GGG is a 50/50 high risk & (currently low reward) fight.

    GGG needs to become Undisputed & a bigger name crossing into the casuals (Abel must invest 2~3 Million in PR to earn 10x $), this will create the $ attraction & Undisputed 160 belt, then a deal can be discussed. Floyd can always be lured out of retirement if it will be the biggest payday of his career.

    For now Khan (if he beats Canelo) & Danny Garcia (if he beats Berto) are the best names for Mayweather comeback :think
