I read an article that says that these are Floyd's next possible opponents...

    That would be bar none THE most boring fight ever...and the least risk so Id bet money thats the next fight Floyd takes. That or Pac, since he's smaller. My pic is Mosley or Berto. I love Cotto, he has the heart of a lion, but Floyd would pick him apart and win a lopsided decision. Floyd will never fight Pavlik or Williams..thats ridiculous to even suggest it. Pavlik is way too big, and Williams..I think Floyd would decision him as well. I would become a huge pbf fan if he fought Pavlik thought...would finally show some balls.

    Option 4 for me, it's the safest choice for Floyd.

    I'd have picked winner of Pac-Cotto as well except that if Cotto wins that fight especially if by brutal knockout Floyd would suddenly find all kinds of things that would make a Cotto fight a virtual impossibility.

    You're forgetting that Cotto is one hell of a body puncher, and he has legitimate welterweight power to make Floyd feel those body shots that Floyd will be forced to compromise his defense a lot. He can hurt him to the arms and everywhere he can manage to land as well.

    Winner of Pac-Cotto at 147?? Why 147 when PAC and Cotto will be fighting at 145... Also Floyd's most recent fight was at 144 (tho Floyd weigh in at 146)...
    Maybe if it's Cotto, it's at 147 and if it's PAC, it could be at 145...

    I think floyd fights either the loser of berto v mosley or the loser of pac v cotto

    bwa ja ja ja :lol:

    OK we'll give some leeway to Floyd... Winner of PAC-Cotto will meet Floyd at 146 (that's Floyd latest weigh in weight)... Let's see if Floyd will demand the fight be at 147 especially if it's against PAC...:lol::rofl

    BTW I voted Cory Spinks... Floyd-Spinks could become the most boring fight of this decade...:rofl

    If Cotto wins then he will fight Cotto. The fight with Pac will never happen because Floyd is the house fighter and Pac isnt going to take the back seat or the smaller cut, which by all rights he should. If its true that the market dictate that then its clearly floyd...

    Oddly enough I said in a thread that I started that Floyd would fight Spinks and Spinks was on the short list for his return fight...Here is the link to that thread

    It's either Pacman or Shane I would think. If Pac loses then Shane, because Shane will knockout Berto. After one or both of those guys, probably Williams. Fighting for the MW title would be a great legacy fight after a few more fights.

    Spinks is not big enough moneywise.

    Even if Cotto wins I think Floyds fighting Pac but Mayweather will probably have another tune-up first just to **** people off slightly more.
