    Who else could he fight ?

    Give a list of your honest opinion of who else could Floyd fight to advance his legacy. Please don't just throw names that don't make sense or has no shot in he'll at bearing Floyd.

    And for arguments sake let's leave Pacquiao out of this. He apparently doesn't really want to fight so it probably won't happen. So who has a shot ???

    I would say the Punisher but I'm not sure about his defense

    Nobody if we are leaving Pac out of this. Maybe you could make a case for Martinez at 160 just for legacy purposes. For the record if Floyd beats Pac badly I do think he will retire after that fight.

    I'm guessing some will say Williams, Margarito, Cotto, Bradley ect..but I think Floyd handles all of them easily, they aren't on the same level.

    Pacquiao wants the fight, Mayweather is making unreasonable demands to intentionally impede it because he knows he's gonna get starched.

    Oh come on, lets be fair now...If you think the drug testing is unreasonable then fine, it might be a little excessive, but Floyd agreed to being fined 1 million dollars per pound he would be over at the weigh in. Don't act like Pac isn't playing the same game.

    Does Martinez really do anything for his legacy???
    Martinez had a good shoeing against Pwill but I still had him losing on the scorecards. He definantly did his thing against pavlik but then again pavlik is a one trick pony.

    Plus he's not really a ww

    I was just thinking for the simple fact he could say he won a belt at 160,not so much the fighter.

    you can't leave pac out of the equation. Without taking him on, I think even mayweather knows his legacy will be incomplete

    I don't want to see him retire. He's reach ODH status money wise, he could bank 20 million a fight just taking out guys like Berto, Margarito, etc.

    It seems he is taking serious consideration at the undisputed MW crown. If Pac doesn't step up, I believe he targets Martinez next.

    Well the reason I want PAC out of it is because the fight won't happen. So the big question is if PAC won't take the test who should floyd fight that makes sense or should he just retire????

    Floyd can still fight at 147.He can fight Berto next,Berto's undefeated,he is a WBC champion,why not just destroy him.People cant blame Floyd,he can only fight the best who are available.Williams is a good fighter but inconsistant

    Yea pac dont want to fight him.
    He said floyd can have money he wants, he can have tests he wants he just wants to fight when floyd and shane were set now, he was like he cant take test cuz he small and i wont surprised, ****it **** pac let pac and shane fight. Pac likes fighting people coming off losses anyway.
    Mayweather should fight martinez i would want him to fight paul but paul really bullshitted by not fighting pavlik and i hope paul never gets a big money fight cuz a loser in martinez went on to fight kellz and paul was idle. Scary *****.
