    Of course it's GGG, that doesn't really mean it's a fight we will or should see. Mayweather barely has business fighting at 154, fighting against a career middleweight? I just don't see the result of that fight ever giving anyone satisfaction.

    And if the fight happened at 154? Mayweather would win, but it would be a hollow victory.

    Ain't interested in Khan because it's too easy, but I'd watch it because I never miss a Khan fight.

    Thurman is the most realistic option, and a very tough challenge.

    GGG is the most credible and the most difficult.

    I voted Cotto because I changed the question somewhat... Obviously GGG would be a huge danger but...

    It would to be one of those who is a genuine possibility, GGG will never get a Mayweather fight. It will never happen.

    Canelo was virtually shut out, no way I see him turning that around, it wasn't even remotely close.

    Thurman is a big puncher so would obviously have a punchers chance but I think Mayweather would outbox him.

    Khan, just no, no, no. Chris Algieri, embarrassing, just no, no, no

    I think Cotto did OK all things considered and I think he would have learned a lot from the first fight, given another chance I think could make it very close.

    On this list, it's Golovkin by an absurd margin.

    Realistically? Cotto - and the closer to 160lbs it is, the tougher it would be for Floyd.

    I expect it to be Garcia in September though.

    Cotto lost 117-111, 117-111, 118-110. These scores were lopsided..

    GGG shouldn't have been on the list as the fight isn't going to happen.

    First King Kong and then Gonzilla. He might be able to rope a dope King Kong like he did that fool Pac but Gonzilla will spit that fire and cause a real problem.
