    They have almost no time to train for a fight on May 5th.

    Well both Arum and GNP will try to keep it inhouse as a first priority if they can't for whatever reason then Floyd vs Cotto or anyone else is possible. I think Cotto seems comfortable with Arum he's not changing companies it seems and wont fight Floyd for a big payday when in the long run he can make alittle more, but if Cotto doesnt want to fight for much longer and he really wants to look out for himself the Floyd fight would be his best option. Arum would be foolish to negate a superfight against Floyd just because of his dislike of Floyd, risk losing Miguel, and a bad business move. Floyd wins and Arums cashcow Pacquiao finally have the superfight later 2012. Arum would have 2 superfights and make megabucks in one year. Everyone wins. If Cotto produced an upset it would setup a rematch. Again another win-win situation.

    Floyd fights high ranked opponents, regardless of what anyone thinks.

    HE WILL MOST LIKELY TAKE THE HIGHEST RANKED OPPONENT AVAILABLE, LB 4 LB OR IN THE DIVISION.

    I here what ur saying, but if Cotto stays with Arum n demands a superfight it's more likely that Arum would give him a rematch with Pacquiao instead of going with a Floyd fight. That way all the money stays in house.. Then the winner can get the super fight with Floyd.

    :-(

    Many trainers pick Guerrero to win that fight and apparently Guerrero sparred w/ Pac then was stopped after two rounds cause he was too much. Plus, he brings no money, complete opposite of low risk high reward.

    I guess if Martinez IS AVAILABLE IT WILL BE SERGIO:deal-

    IF HE WANTS TO FIGHT THE NEXT BEST IN HIS DIVISION, IT WILL BE THE WINNER OF BERTO - ORTIZ

    THE 1 SPOT AT 54 BELONGS TO COTTO

    Just depends bro.
