    Curious to see who folks would rather see fight lil floyd on may 5th since arum most likely isn't going to make the fight with manny

    If miguel gets passed tony, he can leave tr and join gb to get a fight

    and since khan is already with gb, that wouldn't be a problem to get a fight with lil floyd

    both are fighting in dec, both could be ready by may

    I wouldn't mind seeing either of these, but if I were to pick, i'd pick to see miguel (sucks he'd have to go back down though)

    Cotto, I'm still curious from 2008. Not as curious as I was, but still curious.

    Cotto(e)

    Amir needs to have 2-3 fights at WW first.

    feel you

    i mean who else is there left for lil floyd to fight

    rather see him in there with cotto instead of someone coming up in weight like his last 3 out of 4 fights

    Stamina and work rate = Khan
    Power = Cotto
    Expierance = Cotto
    Chin & heart? = slightly less chin for Amir
    Speed = Khan
    Styles vs each other = nobody knows

    I think It would be a good fight.

    I'd like to see how Cotto deals with Khan's pressure.

    true

    only reason i'd have them go now though is to avoid the "lil floyd got old excuse", but he aint lookin like he's gettin old anytime soon though

    Cotto is very technically sound and can give mayweather a very good fight and with his new trainer i highly doubt ANYONE can steam roll him like pac did (i honestly believe that fights was a fix regardless...), cotto power can really hurt floyd and his technique is REALLY sharp so id love to see him win or lose against mayweather

    if the rumor about this margoe fight being Cotto(e)'s final fight under his top rank contract is true and he leaves tr after this, he might just be plan B or C if Floyd-emmanuel can't be made

    I would like to see the Khan fight but Cotto wouldn't be a bad choice either.

    I'd rather not see it.Cotto's too old to cut that kinda weight.
    Floyd-Khan is the one I want most

    Just his youth,speed,style seems like an interesting fight.
