Who should Floyd fight next ? (Last fight ?) VOTE !

This is what will happen and Floyd will get his well deserved swan-song.

 

I voted "other"

I do not care who Mayweather fights in his farewell fight, he has without doubt earned the right to have an easy night (even though he had one last night).

He has fought and beat the lot, there is nobody out there at WW that beats him anyway.

As far as I'm concerned Mayweather can win his 49th fight and enjoy his retirement.

 

I don't have an opinion on who he should fight next.
I won't be staying up to watch it (5am here in UK).
Not watching another Mayweather fight live. They aren't getting any better.

But in my opinion, don't be surprised if a Pacquiao rematch is made for September.
I think Mayweather's smart enough to know there's still some money to be made out of that one. :deal

 

In order of preference:
GGG
Thurman
Khan

In order of probability:
Cotto
Alvarez
Khan

 

Why can't Khan fight in September when Ramadan finishes mid-July?

 

Ramadan messes up your eating schedule. 1 month of not eating right and bieng unable to exercise makes you weak. He really needs atleast 2-3 weeks post Ramadan to get his body in a place where he can start training properly. Then enter a standard 8 week camp for the fight of his life.

Khan is really desperate if he fights him in Sept.

 

In Ramadan you're supposed to get on with your normal job and duties while observing the holy month and fasting.
I don't see why Ramadan is a bad time to train.
Ramadan makes a muslim strong.
It's bad faith to say otherwise.

Khan's some sort of puss*y using Ramadan as an excuse for that time he got iced in 30 seconds by a journeyman.
I think he needs to pray for forgiveness.
If he wasn't such a puss*y and excuse-maker, Allah might bless him with a not-so-glass chin.

 

come one sir, your fighting a roid head and you cant even eat right in your training. you cant get 100 per cent like that.
would many muslims just skip ramadan or can you not do it?

 

None of those fights look particularly appealing to me - probably Cotto looks the best bet but even that's not great.

GGG at 154 gets outboxed for 12 rounds in the same fashion as Manny and people just claim he was drained after it - there's literally no point.

To me, it looks a lot like he's cleaned out the available fighters. Thurman and Brook aren't on that level yet. Amir Khan hasn't proven himself at the weight against either of those guys yet either.

Maybe Tim Bradley? Even that looks like it would be a foregone conclusion as a fight.

 

Actually this is wrong, he can train during Ramadan all he has to do is flip his schedule to training at night & resting and sleeping during the day.

There are actually loads of benefits to fasting which forces the body to release hormones/chemicals that are only triggered in a fasted state.

2-3 weeks post Ramadan? Makes no sense, he'd be ready the week after Ramadan concludes (Eid).

 

GGG at 160

 

Floyd should fight GGG at 154 and then move up to 160 and fight Cotto for the middleweight title in his coming out of retirement 50th fight. Legacy wise that would be best for him. Both matches are winnable

 

Surprised not a lot of votes for rematch...

 

Khan would murder him.
