    Who should Mayweather fight next not DLH or Cotto
    Besides Miguel Cotto or Oscar De La Hoya who should Mayweather face next?
    Some possible choices are. Paul Williams and Kermit Cintron at 147. Junior Witter probbly at 147. Cory Spinks, Vernon Forrest at 154 or Winky Wright if Wright can still make 154.

    if not those two, then shame mosley.

    the rest are not worth mentioning, not because it shouldn't happen, but because it obviously will not happen as floyd is too greedy.

    Well, he has alreayd fought De La Hoya. I want to see the cotto fight, probably the most attractive fight at Mayweathers most prominant weight, makes sense.

    wouldnt mind Cintron, Margarito, Mosley or williams though, its not like Mayweather hasnt got the best division in boxing to choose oponent from.

    It has to be Cotto next! Why beat DLH again and nobody else is up to it at this moment in time.

    If not De La Hoya or Cotto, then Paul Williams (who is actually more deserving than De La Hoya by a longshot).

    He should fight Cotto. Even though he will walk right through Cotto, the critics need to see it in order to be silenced. Any other fight will just lead to the people begging for a Cotto fight.

    A fight with Mosely is a complete waste of time. Mosely is an old man, coming off a loss, with relatively low drawing power. He doesn't bring anything to the table. Cotto ad DLH are the fights that make the most sense.

    Mosley

    Cotto - Mosley was a very close fight and if PBF can dominate him that would be a big statement.

    IMO PBF can't

    Williams is more deserving than De La Hoya, but he doesn't bring $$$ to the table. Floyd "money" Mayweather will be looking for as much money as possible. He'll never fight Williams. I'm not saying that Mayweather is afraid of Williams, but he knows he would have serious trouble with him.

    Terrible style for Mayweather. I come to my conclusion based on tools and styles meeting for one nights boxing, not reputation, unlike some on this forum.

    Williams W12 Mayweather.

    Pavlik, don't write off Floyd against a slow, 1 dimensional plodder
