    With a lack of viable opponents

    Pac 147- Not happening
    Bradley 147- Not happening
    Thurman 147 - Not happening
    GGG - 154/160 - Not happening

    And no one hugely excited by :

    Khan 147 - Maybe
    Garcia 147 - Maybe

    Is it possible Floyd will just wait until Sept 2015 rather than go against Canelo v Cotto PPV in May ?

    He will be even slower by then. He should get the 2 last fights done on his contract next year and retire. He has had a hell of a career, but everyone gets old.

    there's no lack of viable opponents at all. Only lack of viable opponents Floyd wants to fight.

    Without Manny, CBS unlikely to want to underwrite guarantee for FMJ payday against Canelo-Cotto. When Floyd says "SHO is in no hurry to finish contract" he means "they dont want to go up against a bigger fight".

    As long as the C2 fight gets made Floyd about 80% likely to step aside and try to reclaim the Sept date.

    Floyd, has a cast iron guaranteed contract with CBS / SHOWTIME Contrary too your misinformed opinion right!! Does, manny have a cast iron contract with HBO? Note, floyds guarantee is 32 million, whilst manny fights for 6 million. nevada records!!

    Nope.

    Too much money to be made fighting weak Southern American fighters on that date NOT to fight.

    I don't care

    I would love to see Floyd test himself against a top middleweight

    Imagine how massive an achievement it would be to go and beat GGG at Middleweight

    That would be one for the history books for real
