    Khan, he's a different type of fighter to what we see Floyd facing, he's improved and also in his prime.

    That's to many variables for Floyd to consider ..Khan needed to be a plodder before he thinks about fighting Khan

    both would be disgraceful cherrypicks

    but i'd rather watch Khan, at least that would be a fresh cherrypick

    There's also the fact that Cotto is a shot, fake ass champ who doesn't deserve another huge payday just for beating a pitiful cripple that even Mike Alvarado could have beaten

    He got trashed and almost KO'd by Floydette's pillow fists the first time around. We dont need to see any more of that

    Khan, because the Cotto fight would play out only slightly different. A heavier Cotto benefits Floyd more this time around.

    I would almost choose Cotto simply because seeing Khan sitting on the sidelines and sulking like a child would be to funny to watch. His whiny interviews would be priceless.

    If those are the choices than I would say Khan just because he's a new opponent. But if Floyd and Cotto were to meet at 160 for the title minus the catchweight I would gladly watch that instead. After that bring on GGG, because at that point it would be offiially Pacquiao who?

    Pipe dream, I know.

    Both fights are definitely threats to Floyd .

    But Cotto already had his chance and he clearly lost to Floyd .

    Absolutely no one asking for this rematch .

    Floyd doesn't want nothing to do with Manny .

    Therefore I vote for Khan . But from the looks of it , Floyd is not even considering getting in the ring with him either .

    Not shocked at all . Typical Floyd

    I like most of thoses matchups but a Cotto rematch at 157/8+ is really bigger than every fight outside of Pacquiao.

    Lara just lost and with the display he put on he needs a significant win before he gets a big fight.

    Alvarez rematch is on the same level as the Cotto rematch only difference is Cotto is The Champ at MW, while Alvarez is just the next highest rated JMW contender.

    Brook is an underrated big fight for what is really the Undisputed WW Title (WBC/WBA/IBF)

    Garcia is a decent fight considering he's technically Lineal JWW Champ but just so-so.

    The fight that should happen next is Mayweather-Pacquiao May 2nd 2015 it's waayyy to late but every fight comes with its negatives

    A rematch vs the Cotto/Alvarez winner is cool in Sept not May, Brook/Garcia should fight Khan all three really need each other. A GGG fight will always bring interest due to size diff and rep. The #1 fight that should happen is Pacquiao, any of those would be great for Sept but not May only one thing should happen in May.

    Cotto would be for the Middleweight Championship. As fun as it would be to see Khan get schooled and knocked out like Victor Ortiz was I am not going to pay money to watch Amir Khan fight on PPV :rofl:patsch

    Hopefully Floyd fights Pacquiao or Cotto.
