    Does he enter back into the P4P rankings? Or do we need to wait till he fights again?

    Btw , if he does come back, I really hope its not to rematch DLH or Hatton... It should be only to Fight Pacman at like 140 or to fight Margarito at 147 , I would really want him to fight PW at 147 but that won't happen

    Yeah its going to be pretty disappointing if he comes back just to fight Hatton, but i really doubt he would.

    Officially . . . PBF is retired that's a fact.

    And if he's coming back . . . it's got to be against Margarito, Williams or Cotto . . . not against Pacquiao, Hatton or anybody else.

    . . . otherwise more shame on him. :deal

    Floyd will fight Pac-Man if Pac-Man beats Oscar in a superfight...

    OR

    Floyd will fight Margarito if margo beats mosley and cotto again impressively.


    Those are by far the most realistic options for him. Ricky Hatton 2 or DLH 2 has low chance of happening IMO.

    Floyd is still the top fighter in the world. If he's active, he's on the list.

    That should be the case..but unfortunately...$$$$$$$$$$$

    Personally, I think the liklihood is that Floyd will fight DLH after he finishes his dwarf beating extravoganza.

    Remember, Golden Panties will be generating all sorts of hype about himself after he K.O's the midget..about what it means, it's significance, etc. The Golden Boy propaganda machine will use that hype to set up another fight with Floyd. And once again the public will eat the **** up.

    Floyd will eat it too, because..$$$$$$$$$$$$$$..

    You don't think a Pacman v PBF fight at 135-140 would be good for boxing?

    If Floyd comes back and fights Cotto, Margorito-Mosley winner, Pacquaio if he beats DLH, or someone similar than this is good news. Mayweather is one of the few superstars in American boxing and if he fights other elites than that would be great for boxing. If he fights Hatton first before moving onto one of the above fights than that is fine. If he fights Hatton than decides to retire again than I could care less. Being a Hatton fight is big money and easy money I wouldn't be at all surprised it happens. Lets just hope he sticks around long enough to fight a few of the fights we really want to see.

    Trust me, A LOT of people will care if he fights Pacquiao/DLH winner. A rematch with Hatton will also attract a lot but not as much as the winner of Pacquiao/DLH.

    I would like to see him fight Paul Williams since he's the top Welterweight right now and a TRUE avoided fighter.

    If Pac-Man beats DLH impressively, a Pac-Floyd fight will be epic and inevitable.
