    I know he must have A class chin, but despite that Cintron is a lot bigger than him and supposed to have enough power to get any 140 fighter out of there. Having experience @154.

    why do you want Floyd to fight a JWW? Pac is taking on a solid Welter, wouldn't you want to see Floyd do the same?

    You mean a solid welter who happens to be more sloppy second's and isn't allowed to come into the fight at his optimum weight?

    I agree it has to be at least Cintron a full sized welterweight that can punch. I just have a bad feeling it'll end up being the total opposite with Malignaggi.

    If he's afraid of Cintron he should try Quintana or Collazo both are true welters and would be solid tuneups if he ever wants to fight Pac down the road.

    Kind of a weird thread. Had to reread the question and the options a few times. Looks like most reading are confused too.

    Malignaggi is the easiest fight.
    Bradley is the most competitive fight. (on the list)
    Collazo is THE fight. (IMHO)

    I really think people should give up on power or pressure alone being able to beat Mayweather. Cintron can hit, but he has looked like complete crap in his last few fights. Paul Williams should make weight and look good after that ordeal he went through. We want to see him sharp in there with FMJ.

    I really just feel that Collazo would be an amazing "keep busy" fight. Collazo is tough as nails and he is decently slick.

    Bradley is the best fighter P4P on that list. Being in a weight class 7 lbs. higher doesn't make you a necessarily a tougher opponent. I'd rather see Mayweather fight Collazo than Cintron

    Pac is fighting a solid welter at a catch weight. When he is going to actually fight a welterweight at 147?

    Read the poll question. Cintron is the easiest fight in my opinion for Floyd, not who I picked to see him fight.

    Bradley has all the tools to be in a good fight with Maywather. He's dominated everyone he's faced on championship level Witter, Holt, and Peterson.

    DUDE@@!@!@!
    He is a junior welter weight!!!
    If you want to fight a junior welterweight, go down and fight him.

    I would love to see him fight bradley at 140.
    I would love to see him fight williams at 147.
    I would love to see him fight martinez at 154.

    He won't do any of that ****. Just watch.

    You can just easily say the opposite for Bradley...Mayweather is a WW fight him at WW. Wouldn't make sense for Mayweather to fight @140 when Pacquiao and Mosley are @147. his next opponents. I don't see it as a big deal if he fights Bradley @147. Atleast he's not draining his opponents. Timothy has a lot of muscle on him anyways and would be moving to 147 eventually.

    So you're basically admitting that floyd needs to fight smaller fighters until he gets to shane or pac.

    Interesting.

    I'm saying he should fight the best fighter in Bradley. You guys are too caught up on weigh tclass and not talent/ability. Nobody available @147 has a better chance of beating Mayweather than Bradley. And where is there more a size difference between Floyd and Bradley or Cintron and Floyd?
