    4 more fights after this one. 36 years old now , fights 2x a yr for 2 more years and retires at 38? I think he'll retire before then.
    Potential opponents?

    he will finish the deal then 1 more to get the 50-0
    Winner of Garcia fight
    Someone from UK maybe brook
    One more at 154 maybe Lara or Molina
    Also some easy fights for him that I could see him taking:Khan,Alexander,Thurman,Maidana
    Plent of fights left for Floyd.
    After he beats Alvarez and gives showtime a good PPV he will be able to coast to the finish line if he wants.

    Considering Mayweather is the one who said he wanted to fight 6 times over 30 months, I would say he intends on going through with it. Of course, and injury, or a bad loss, or another incarceration could change that. Here are 4 potential opponents;

    Matthysse/Garcia
    Khan/Alexander
    Thurman
    Broner

    IDK, Broner has a lot of extracurricular activities going on. He doesn't seem too focused and disciplined. We'll see if he makes it pass Maidana.

    After Canelo, I definitely think he's gonna fight the Garcia/Matthysse winner and Khan(assuming he gets by Devon and another decent opponent) but I'm not sure who else would be a worthwhile PPV opponent...Cotto rematch:think?

    He will get past Maidana

    The fight would make alot of money because they both talk ****

    They would just use Broner is the new young Floyd to sell it when he doesnt even fight that similar

    Hoya already said Broner is him, Mayweather and Whitaker all in one

    He'd be all up in Broner's nuts to promote that fight

    Depends how he performs and if he takes serious beatings in upcoming fights. If he continues to dominate and do well then expect him to complete all.

    Keith Thurman is no easy fight, Mayweather is better off taking GGG than Keith Thruman. As a win vs GGG will have more credit than beating Keith Thurman a very Solid Native Welter who hits anything that moves in the ring...Not exactly an easy fight for Floyd :nono
