    So, you mean he'll finally make the Pacquio fight?

    I fully expect a retirement statement when he is released.

    I was thinking along the terms of Floyd fighting once again this year.

    My prediction for how things unfold with Saul is he beats Ortiz later this year and then fights Miguel next year. If he can beat Miguel, it's onto Mayweather later next year.

    Ortiz better not mess up and get upset tomorrow.

    You guys are joking, right? I mean you can't be serious... 87 days? Most likely 56? Tell me you're joking? Nobody is that ignorant not even high school kids!

    He'll be alright.

    Tyson came out of prison and still was a top. Floyd isn't even nearly as in danger as Mike. Not prison for one; not years but months for two.

    He'll get out and be as good as he was in the Ortiz and Cotto fights. When you have done something for 33 out of 35 years of your life, it isn't going to go away in 87 days.

    2nd nature, like driving a stick instead of automatic. I jumped in my neighbors car, to move it the other day. It was a manual transmission, which I haven't driven since 2005. I didn't stall nor come close to it. It was 2nd nature.

    Didn't Michael Vick have an MVP-like season in his return? I think he had missed 3 yrs of playing time. FMJ is getting old but: (1) He takes as much time he wants or needs to prepare for a fight (2) He doesn't have a lot of competition.

    Manny Pacquiao would be the first choice for Floyd still. It's just that Manny is using a 50/50 split excuse when he doesn't deserve it.

    Pacquiao has been the main guy since 2009, but he keeps making up excuses to not fight Floyd.

    Now Pac would be a good tune-up for Floyd!

    Don't want to call the 2nd best fighter in the world a tune up...then again I didn't want to call the 2nd best fighter Marquez, a tune up either.

    Possibly mid-late July for good behavior.

    i don't think the 3 months is enough to erode him too much. i think that takes a year or so. he would still whip manny's punkass

    He's going to adopt a bow-legged stance in the future.
