    Floyd could come back to 147 and defend his linear title/WBA v Mosley. Alternatively he could drop to a catch weight and fight 135 linear champ Marquez. He could also wait for winner of Pac v Hatton cos those are 2 huge fights depending on the results. Should Cotto beat Clottey then he could face an old 140 rival and also come back to take 2 belts.

    Basically, he has ALOT of options!

    The winner of Pac - Hatton. I don't see any other fight for him.

    He should come back and fight Mosley - but the winner of the PAC/Hatton fight makes far more Dollars than Sense (Cents).

    i'd love to see him fight mosley. i'd love to see a catchweight fight against jmm. pac would be a good show too. but i can tell you that pbf is probably praying for a hatton win v. pac. a rematch with hatton would bring him so much money and hatton probably presents the safest match out of the guys listed for pbf (thats not a knock on hatton but i cannot see the fight turning out much different) plus with floyd sr. in hatton's corner, you know that will only mean even more money b/c of the added intrigue.

    i suppose the only question is...if hatton beats pac (no p4p pound argument i promise) does that mean he can demand floyd come down to him at 140 or will hatton still have to come up to him at 147??

    who cares! when he says himself he is back then ill worry bout **** like that. there are too many good fighters right now that id much rather worry bout. its a waste of time talking about a mayweather comeback.

    Let the teary eyed spineless prima donna just stay away, boxing doesnt need him. Let him goe dance with the Big Show again or something. I hope NEVER to see the little wimp in a boxing ring again

    In other words you do want to see him - but you'd like to see him lose. Right....

    Pacquiao is the biggest fight for Floyd. I don't see him coming back for less than Pacquiao.
