    Im just making the assumption here.

    If he beats these 2 fighters this year, do you think he'll retire...as in properly,permanently retire?

    I cant see there being much left for him.

    Guererro is an ok win,and Canelo will be the Ring/Lineal champ at LMW.

    Whats left for Floyd.

    I doubt the Martinez fight will happen, between Martinez age and the weight differential, I just find it hard to see.

    Pacquiao just seems like a fight that will never happen,and now Pac has been KO's the fight has lost some luster.

    Hes already easily beaten Marquez. Bradley isnt the kind of fight that will get a lot of people going,although that may be one that might keep him around.

    I mean,what will there be left for him to do?

    Multiple weight world champ, 45-0.

    Will have beaten numerous world champions and big names.

    And at 35,hes not getting any younger.

    What do you think?

    Depends. If he fights both and dominates like usual then I think he continues. If he fights both and has trouble, sustains some lumps as well, yet still wins, then I think he officially retires.

    Unless of course, so ridiculous payday is still available. Like Pacquiao.

    :lol: I was confused as **** at first.

    I don't see who else he'd fight honestly.. I was having a hard time thinking of who he'd fight this time around, which is why I'm not super upset about the Guerrero fight if it's next. I think he might retire.. But he can sell decent with almost anyone, so he may milk it another year or so against lesser competition..

    Kell Brook(who i think is likely to beat Alexander), Lucas Matthysse and Danny Garcia could mix things up at 147. First i think Matthysse should get some key wins. He lost to Judah who lost most of his major fights and lost to Alexander who isnt that special. Maybe he was robbed in that 10 rder but still...he couldnt get the job done. Bradley would be a good fight vs Floyd or any of the above but hes stuck with Top Rank. Then you have wild cards such as Josesito Lopez, or Amir Khan.

    Now at154, id look out for Keith Thurman, that kid has some star quality.

    He can beat Guerrero, no way he'll get through the Ghost though.

    I dont think he fights Canelo unless Canelo losses and looks very beatable.
