    Exactly. Nothing else comes close. Cotto vs Canelo likely for the Cinco de Mayo weekend card, taking the date back for the Mexican fans.

    Even if Mayweather bites the bullet and says it will be Pacquiao, guess what, he still has to work with Bob Arum. So either way, Arum and Oscar got enormous leverage for that weekend. There is nothing Haymon and Floyd can do to change that. Nothing.

    floyd relies on his footwork and reflexes which both have slightly degraded anyway i think pac vs floyd although it doesnt hold the prestige it did 09-2010 (which could have been an amazing fight btw inc the build up hype ect) would still be competitive and worth seeing still despite them both looking aged in thier last fights

    pacs slower and floyd offensive output is even lower than usual judging by the maidana fight anyway which could have been due to chinos workrate not letting him get his shots off but either way floyds starting to age too

    I will admit i don't know the ins and outs of the business side of the fight game, so would it be possible to have cotto vs Canelo and Floyd vs Pac on the same card?

    Or do TV deals not allow this?

    HUUUUUGE profit if that could be done.

    Also could explain why Pac is facing Algeri. Didnt want too much risk for next fight

    Hope so.

    I wanna see Floyd finish off with Garcia, Pac and Porter.

    I would be ok with a Bradley fight or khan if he beats Guerrero.

    Lol! Big surprise. More like a big fuc k you to anyone who warrants him fighting a big opponent. Why is he fighting this lame pup again? Garcia does not do anything special so why would he pick him if he does pick him?

    Danny Garcia has been deflated in the public eye... He don't deserve a Floyd fight.
    Maybe a Khan/Danny rematch on Floyd's undercard??

    Salka doesn't fit the "coming off a big win" pattern.

    I wish flloyd would take on a real challenge or just retire

    Garcia is a pointless fight that does nothing for his legacy
