If PBF defeated Cotto in impressive fashion, who else should fight before he retires?

    I love the way some acted like they were prophets because for 15 years they thought he had a weak chin. So when he finally gets stopped, it's "Look, I TOLD you!!".

    Yah, well, I predict one day you'll die. I will eventually be a prophet too...

    Yes, he'll be so mad after he gets his ass whooped by Judah that he'll take his frustrations out on Jin; killing her in the process.:smoke

    They are idiots. The guy was what like 35 when he finally lost legitimately and before that had titles at 4 weights and dominated 15 other world champions. No matter who you are, if you fight when you are past it you will lose....you are getting slower and older and other fighters are younger, stronger and faster....that happens in all of sports.

    There will always be someone else to fight. That's the addiction of the game. Always another big fight, always another big payday. Floyd's a smart guy, and he will make the right moves for himself.

    as far as embedding his name in history nobody....

    financially there might be more lucrative fights but cotto is his only true necessary challenge left

    Since Floyd's already defeated the big name (DLH), the LWW champ (Hatton), LMW#1 Winky lost to Hopkins (and his P4P ranking) and Cotto defeated Mosley, the only HUGE fight out there is Miguel Cotto... And Floyd HAS to fight Cotto sooner or later, it's a very important fight for the WW history and for both fighters resume and Miguel is not another fighter out there, he's a well deserved P4P-er who yet to lose a pro fight and always pulls off the win...

    If he beats Cotto, I don't see any meaningful superfight left out there.

    I agree no one ...

    It would take too long for any other fighters to get big enough ... he should retire.

    Berto has a bit too much seasoning to do before the fight comes into fruitation and by that point Mayweather will be past prime. He is already 31 and beginning his decline. I dont see this fight being important enough to happen in the future. Berto may be the next champion after Mayweather's era though:smoke

    Void needs to fight with neutral judges, he lost to Castillo in the first fight and he lost to Oscar.
