    Choice between two options. I would maybe try to enhance my legacy by fighting the clearly declined Maravilla at MW. Big change on a loss, but still points for trying if that happens.
    Or I would go for huge money and finally fight Pac. Probably that.

    I would use my influence to force an eliminator between Khan and Maidana, then fight the winner(obviously). After that, I would fight the winner of Pac-Bradley II as both would presumably be clear of their obligations to Top Rank by next September.

    I have full confidence that Lara-Mayweather can happen, but he's going to have to string together some really impressive wins(Molina II, Canelo, Smith?) to even have a chance.

    Sure hope it does. I'm kinda thinking Lara gets to fight the winner of Cotto - Martinez and then the one who tops that gets Floyd. Lara as good as he is doesn't have following, He needs a big name before Floyd.

    Id pick Khan, speed vs speed. What an intriguing fight

    Tell Pac to beat JMM and Bradley first, get in line

    Maidana

    GB vs. TR war exists. Maidana is the best, hottest recent commodity at WW he hasn't already beaten or who doesn't fight with Top Rank. And if entertainment plays any role than the case for Maidana is unmatchable in that aspect.

    only a true ******* recognises pacs 8th title ...

    margarito who was not even ranked at 154
    coming off a year ban and his first and only KO loss
    the ban came because of his handwraps which basically put a big asterisk over his entire career

    and correct me if im wrong but was not pacquiao rated #1 p4p at that time?

    If I was Floyd I'd fight the safest but most lucrative fighter.

    If I was Floyd with a bigger left ball I'd fight for legacy and challenge the best out there.

    He won an on the spot made 154 lb title against a unranked welterweight.
    At a catchweight of 152 lbs. Any serious fan of boxing wouldn't recognize that bull****.

    Fotd yes, #1 p4p at that time? Hell yes..

    But 8 division champ? hell no. That 8th division was pure marketing.

    marketing or not, it matters when the so called p4p 1 would even ask for c/w at his 5th div.


    fighting in 6th, 7th is hella difficult, ask floyd.

    pac could have easily lost in his 8th div fight, but he had done his part.

    in the history of boxing, who has won 6 different div titles? 1 or 2 boxers out of 10's of thousands.

    forget about the title, fighting alone in his 8th is already an accomplisthment when the so called p4lp1 wont even dare set foot in his 6th.

    pac winning it was a bonus.

    8div title, according to guiness, deal with it.:deal
