    Doesn't deserve one. He has to earn it. Like fight and beat a couple of top 10 contenders. Go retire cause no one cares.

    I don't think that's a necessary criteria anymore. At least..it won't be once he fights Khan in September. And if that is the criteria, then who's worthy in your opinion?

    Buffy c'mon now you've been around the sport enough to. know that the Floyd-Pac fight was as crooked as a corkscrew.
    Vegas/NSAC made sure Pac had no chance of winning in Vegas unless he KO'd Floyd. Floyd is Vegas/NSAC cash cow they wont let him lose that 0. Doesn't matter who Floyd fights next if its in Vegas Floyd wins They know he'll want 50 wins on his bogus undefeated record
    They said boxing was corrupt in the 50's but they were choir boys compared to today They don't even TRY to hide the corruption

    There is only one number one . The man voted best in his era
    The many who has 8 world titles. The man who ducked no one
    Emmanuel Daphidran Pacquaio!!!!!
    That corrupt May 2 fight only proved to me I was right Vegas/NSAC are as crooked as corkscrews.

    Floyd needs to fight Khan in England like he bragged he wanted to do not so long ago . But if he's called on it he'll repeat the infamous " I never said that I never said that at all Stop putting words in my mouth" ROFLMAO
    Floyd is scared to give any fighter a level playing field he hasn't enough confidence in his own abilities to fight anywhere but Vegas

    Khan is the one that don't wanna fight in England. Ask Brook.

    Admire his will to rectify his disappointing performance but he's got to at least earn it as much as everyone else now he had his shot and blew it, though I guess you can say with his achievements he's earned five shots lol.

    Then who should he fight, in your opinion? Canelo? He destroyed a bum in Kirkland. Khan? He was dominant of Alexander, struggled against Algieri. Cotto? We will have to see how he gets past Geale. Golovkin? Absolutely not. Garcia? Struggled against Peterson. Thurman? A great brawl against Guerrero which he won convincingly. Brook? He's the only one who has won "dominantly" and it was against Gavin.

    The difference between Pacquiao and him having to win dominantly is

    1) He's still an ATG who can beat almost anyone else out there, and beating a top 10 welterweight wouldn't prepare him anymore for Mayweather. The only thing that
    could prepare him for Mayweather 2 is fighting Mayweather once. My point is, they're both all they'll ever be. Also, Pacquiao isn't just any other opponent. He's Manny Pacquiao, 8 Time World Division Champion, FOTD. STILL.
    2) he had a torn rotator cuff

    That's really all the narrative you need. If you can sell both of those, then they'll be good.

    He doesn't have to earn anything...pls.

    The only fight that makes sense for both is a rematch. Make more money and then retire.

    Floyd should fight someone willing to come at him. I was expecting Scrubquiao to do as much work as Hatton. Manny was too scared to get KTFO. Nobody wants to see an unskilled boxer box. He was supposed to come at Mayweather not try to box. What an idiot Manny was. He looked clueless against a fighter Bob Arum couldn't buy.
