    Well he is fighting Murray next, after that I had wanted Kirkland but he has signed on for Canelo in May.
    Realistically it's tough to predict 5 fights down the road. I'll give what I think his next three fights could be.
    Murray (already signed)
    Lemieux (HBO fighter)
    Andy Lee (if Lee defeats Quillen which I see as a 50/50 fight) if Quillen wins I don't think there is any chance he fights GGG.
    Since Murray is already a go I will give one more. I think if Cotto fights Mayweather and loses. I think Top Rank will feed him to Triple G.

    Would love to have seen him finally get Quillin and Cotto into a ring. Unfortunately, I doubt either fight ever happens.

    Realistically.....

    Murray (already signed)
    Lemiux (HBO fighter)

    Lee if he beats Quillin. If Quillin wins then he won't fight GGG.

    Cotto if he beats Mayweather, which I doubt it. If Cotto loses I don't see why Cotto has to fight GGG at this point. If Mayweather wins, he won't fight any MW.

    Last but not least it will be Saunders, N'Dam, or Korobov if incase Lee and Cotto do lose.

    May - Lemieux (or less likely N'Dam for the IBF belt after Taylor is stripped of it), in California.

    September - winner of Lee/Saunders for the WBO belt on a British Isle.

    December - Heiland (or much less likely, Martinez) for the WBC belt after Cotto vacates or he defends his WBA belt vs Daniel Jacobs (much less likely Chudinov), in Vegas.

    i'd rather he fight Cotto in May, Canelo in September and Ward, Froch or Chavez, Jr. in December, but they're all chicken ****.

    I'd like to see GGG unify all the titles at middleweight but I can't see any of the champions wanting to fight him. At least GGG is interim WBC champ so I'd guess a shot at that is realistic but I doubt Cotto will face him. The top 2 ranked contenders with the WBC after Murray are Lemieux and Heiland so maybe one of them two for the vacant title but it's hard to say really who would want to face GGG.

    No one @ 160 wants to face him, cause no one can beat him. And anyone who thinks they have a chance, their advisors will be telling them to stay the **** away. Its a disgrace

    Always wanted to see him against Murray and thankfully it's happening next. After that I'd like to see him go for the Lineal title/Cotto, Andy Lee and Quillin.

    You really believe Cotto, Floyd and Quillin will fight him in that order? :blood

    it does when it comes to facing Triple G. he has money to burn but won't even consider it, much less negotiate.

    If a Cotto fight doesn't happen:
    1-Murray
    2-Froch
    3-Ward if he beats Froch, Dirrell (Anthony) if he loses
