    Eh, how is Taylor a good payday? Also he is a Super Middleweight.

    I think he will make the most money @ 154, but a lot of the guys that will give a big payday could very well beat him.
    But I like his chances better @ 154 than against GGG, and let's face it, he is the only remotely big name in middleweight now, and he still won't bring in close to what a Pacquiao/Mayweather (even Canelo) fight would.

    Personally I would go for a Pacquiao fight right away, forging whilst the iron is hot. If he wins he can go after Floyd (if he isn't cooperative beating Canelo first should help) and if he loses he can go for a rematch.

    Im not sold on Cotto based on last nights performance though. He looked good, but too many unanswered questions regarding Martinez.

    1. Canelo big money with the Ginger's fan base. Mexico/Puerto Rico rivalry.

    2. Jump 2 weight classes, and fight The Alien. Don't actually gain the weight, come in at 155, use speed against the 50 year old champ. In his prime, the Executioner dismantles him, but against a 50 year old, it's a good fight and winnable. (and if you lose, who cares, he's a much bigger man and a legend)

    3. Rematch with either Pacman or Mayweather. The selling point is Pac/May going for the light heavyweight championship against a guy they already beat. Ironically all the participants would still weigh about 150.

    These wins would probably push him into top 5 all time

    Cotto should retire and enjoy some rest. He's done enough for boxing.

    Thinking the same thing lol and we already know if it did happen, Roach would be in Pac corner.

    Most likely he loses to all 3, Mayweather is the surest bet, but he won't get beat up like he will vs Pacquiao or Canelo. Unify with Soliman and then Mayweather. Next Pacman finally Canelo. You never really know. Could be the higher he goes in weight the weakest link, Canelo, might be the hardest fight. At 155 and up Cotto might actually upset Floyd or Pacquiao.

    Canelo for sure. That's a huge fight and a huge payday.

    Except Mayweather or Pacquiao, Cotto vs. Canelo will make more money than the others you mention. Jermaine Taylor?? You have got to be kidding!!
