    What are your opinions on what's gonna happen with Shane Mosley now that Pacquiao-Cotto is going down?

    Berto seems like the most logical future. Any concessions he might make in this fight now that he has less options?

    Does Joshua Clottey appear in his radar?

    Will he dare consider thinking about Paul Williams?

    A Berto fight would be a good "stay busy" fight that involves a pretty legitimate fighter while he waits for the other guys like PBF, Pac, Cotto, and JMM to settle their business.

    :rofl

    I'd LOVE to see that, although I'd have to not drink a drop of water for a day before the fight to guarantee that I wouldn't have to take a quick **** and miss the entire fight.

    Mosley has a lot of options at 147. He just wont get paid the way he wants too but he could fight clottey-berto or possibly williams ( if he can still make 147). He can fight one of the 3 and wait. If pac and mayweather wins then mosley can rematch cotto for his next fight.

    He should , because i beleive when a man reaches Mosley's status and stage in his career is there really much more to a) acheive and b) you must grab a unique challenge with both hands . And PW is certainly that .

    The fight with Williams would have to be @147 for Shane to win he would be banana's to fight @154 or above , but yeah why not , its looking like Berto for now though !!!!!

    With Pac Cotto happening why not Floyd ?????

    As a P Will fan, I am hoping that fight is the one that happens. Williams has said that he'd like to fight Mosley and that he can still make 147. Maybe with the situation now and the fact that PW hasn't had to make 147 in over a year Mosley would consider this fight. However, I don't see that happening.

    Floyd fights in September and if Mosley were to wait for him he'll have been out of the ring for too long.

    Mosley better take the Berto fight - before Berto signs off to fight Collazo. It's probably the easiest fight for him - if his demands aren't crazy.

    Just fight Berto and be WW king. once Pacquiao gets the WBO belt then it could be undisputued WW champ if Pacquiao-Mosley fight. if that doesnt happen then Pacquiao can fight Mayweather, say Mayweather wins, Mayweather-Mosley is for undisputed WW king, things are looking good., but Berto does have a shot to beart Mosley.....

    Williams or Berto. I'd love to see him face Berto. Would be a great crossroads fight.

    At this point he should beat Berto and see what lies beyond. If he unifies someone will have to come to him.

    A fight with Berto is a good one, and in my opinion, a sure win. A fight Clottey would be a tough fight, but a great one for boxing fans.
