    If floyd fights any of these two fighters,it will erase all the talk about him cherry-picking his opponents,because williams and cintron are very dangerous fighers.

    If anybody don't wanna see floyd fight any of these two fighters,then they really don't wanna see floyd challenged and they would rather him fight malignaggi,matthew hatton,nate campbell or bradley.

    Don't get me wrong,because bradley is a very skilled opponent,but we all gotta remember he's still a jr welterweight and if floyd wins most of u will all say he beat a smaller guy.

    With cintron you have a guy who was just a knockout artist,but he stuck with it and and now he's turned into a boxer puncher and cintron's jab is the key right now and he has a killer right hand.

    Paul williams would give floyd the most trouble giving his height,speed,and workrate,floyd would have to double his punch output,if he wanted beat a guy like williams.


    IF FLOYD FOUGHT CINTRON I'D UNDERSTAND,BECAUSE WILLIAMS IS TOO DANGEROUS OF A FIGHT,BUT WITH CINTRON FLOYD WOULD HAVE TO FIGHT A PERFECT FIGHT,BECAUSE ONE MISTAKE AND ITS GOOD NIGHT.CINTRON'S JAB COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR FLOYD AND THAT'S WHY FLOYD SHOULD FIGHT ONE OF THESE 2 FIGHTERS,BECAUSE THERE IS A CHANCE HE COULD POSSIBLY LOSE AND TAKING ON CHALLENGES LIKE THAT IS WHAT MAKES GREAT FIGHTERS.

    If he doesn't fight a WW or higher - it's just not going to look good for him.

    The real question is - Does he care?

    lol yeah good point. Agree Williams is a very dangerous fight for him. Awkwardness is the most underrated asset and Williams is definately awkward!

    Rather see him fight mosley tbh. Got power speed and brains. And the pretty boy knows it.

    Yes he would get respect with either fight, more so with Williams. Williams would also have the extra bonus of being a big name, would put him in a great position.

    The only thing i can say about Cintron is that he doesn't have the mental toughness that championship boxers posses and against PBF that could be a recipe for disaster

    i dont know why theres such a big deal about cintron, he can punch but he cant box. Not compared to Floyd anyway. Think it would be easy work for money may once he got going.

    Williams, Mosley, and Martinez sure, but Cintron is meh.......

    Cintron will do NOTHING for Floyd's Legacy except to show he has finally fought a full blown WW but not still a great one.

    I disagree, I think at this stage a fight with Cintron would be better than his recent last two fights, Hatton and Marquez and honestly other than DLH, at the higher weights this is the most dangerous fight Floyd has taken above 135, Sorry but I just dont over rate Zab Judah the way the wanna be boxing pundits here do.

    Like I said above 135 other than Oscar this is the toughest fight he has taken IMO.

    I agree that cintron does nothing for floyd if martinez was able to out box him then floyd gonna put a hurt on him. Floyd will see those right hands coming all night. If floyd wants respect for his next fight he needs to fight martinez or p willie, or be a man and fight a middleweight maybe sturm i would pay to watch either of those 3, but cintron ill wait for the next day and download it.

    Cintron is actually a tougher fight then a Maragrito is for floyd IMO. Cintron has more power, faster hands, and a little better skill. Only reason Margachito beats him is because he has better heart and is mroe relentless. Floyd is not the type of guy that would really hurt Cintron so he should fight to his true potential. Forget williams, the guys is a middle weight now.

    Would like to see floyd fight mosley berto cotto any of them 3 is a solid test.

    I think Williams is a good shout aswell. tough tough test that would prove alot to the boxing community but would be forgotten but everyone else.

    What in god's name are you talking about big man , Margarito exploited a very limited defence with Cintron , and Cintron landed nothing on Marg who is very easy to hit , fact is Cintron is good not world class , and a fight with Mayweather is a joke , Cintron is probably the 2nd best option (in this shitty little shortlist) behind Tim Bradley who IMO gives Floyd a tougher night than Cintron .

    Margarito done nothing but walk down Cintron , that was it walk forward and close the space , no black art , and Cintron was all over the place , Martinez boxed his head off stopped him and somehow managed to walk away with a draw :lol::lol: Cintron is not a credible opponent for Floyd thats it .

    I am a fan of FLoyd's boxing skills and would love to see those skills against an opponent that almost has a 50/50 chance against him. Let's face it Floyd is the #1 skilled, defensive fighter right now and I don't see anyone in the WW division having more than a 50% chance of beating him. I'm dying to see him take a risk and fight the best out there and prove to everyone why he calls himself "THE BEST OF ALL TIME".
