    If he doesn't fight Manny Pacquiao, he'll probably fight Mosley again. Andre Berto wouldn't be a bad choice though. Berto is the 4th best WW out there, and he's a prime, undefeated, champion.

    Yeah, Berto.

    I wonder if he'd ever go for Cotto if he beats Foreman. Cotto has a bigger name than Berto I feel, and even if he's past his peak, he'd still bring in more money than Berto. Then again, Arum might want to make an in-fight - as usual.

    I would hope Cotto, just because it's been my dream match over the past 5 years.

    If FMJ loses, of course his next fight will be against SSM again. If he wins, Berto and Cotto will be the only options left as far as big bucks are concerned.

    IMO, His next fight will be a rematch with Shane.
    Like I have said before, The Pac fight will never happen.

    Who else can he fight and make big money? I can not think of anyone. Floyed needs another well known fighter in the opposite corner to make serious dough especially after the fact that many casual fans were insulted by the Marques mismatch.

    I agree 100%..
    But the politics involved point to NEVER gonna happen.
    (The way we Boxing fans would like)

    Probably Berto for the WW green belt (which Floyd likes to collect for some reason). Then retirement.
