    Among these guys, who do you think Mayweather will likely fight on March 13?

    Among these guys, who do you think Mayweather will agree to fight on March 13?

    1. Paul Williams - Williams is Top 10 P4P. This would be PPV material for sure and this fight would be easy to make, as Williams has been looking for a serious payday and his management is probably pissed at Arum because of failure to land the Pavlik fight. Mayweather would probably get an edge by having Williams go down to 147 not to mention weaken him with the "Mayweather blood testing protocol".

    Why Mayweather might not take this? PWill will pose a serious challenge because of his height and reach advantage, his power and his work rate.

    2. Kermit Cintron - Top ranked junior middle, coming of wins over Angulo and some patsy. He has name recall, and only lost to Margarito (and Martinez IMO). Cintron can probably muster Rican support, and add the fact that Cintron thinks Pacquiao is juicing too, would make for an interesting 24/7. This fight would be easy to make, Cintron needs the moolah and is set to fight for the WBC title anyway. Mayweather would make Cintron come down to 147 and weaken him with the "Mayweather bloodtesting protocol".

    Why Mayweather might not take this? Cintron's got height and reach advantage and he's got power.

    3. Paulie Malignaggi - Has name recall and could probably make for an interesting 24/7 because of his Floyd-like obnoxiousness. Malignaggi would go up to 147. Paulie doesn't have power but Mayweather would need to take some of that speed off him so Floyd would again insist on the Mayweather bloodtesting protocol. Again, this fight would not be hard to make; Malignaggi has indicated that he's ready for Mayweather not to mention the fact that this would give Paulie serious moolah.

    Why Mayweather might not take this? Malignaggi's losses to Diaz, Hatton and Cotto might turn Mayweather off. Malignaggi also talks lots of ****. In fact, of all the boxers out there save for Campbell, Malignaggi IMO probably would have the best chance to get under Mayweather's skin.

    4. Oscar dela Hoya - The rematch that didn't happen because Mayweather retired. Oscar would probably announce that this will be his last fight and that he and Mayweather would institute testing protocol that would be his legacy to boxing and **** like that. Fight will be at junior middle and he's say that he won't be as weight drained as he was in the Pacquiao fight...

    Why Mayweather might not take this? Oscar would want a 50-50 split.

      Williams and Oscar are pretty much fantasy picks.

      So basically you ask if he is likely to fight Cintron or Malignaggi.

            Well, there's ..Collazo, Campbell, Casamayor (too old/small)...under Goldenboy Promotions you possibly have Kirkland and Victor Ortiz (too green)... Tim Bradley would be nice but he doesn't have name recall nor a Mexican or Puerto-rican following, add to that the fact that he's no gimme.

              Should have taken them in the poll rather than jokes like ODLH

              Ortiz = no ****ing way.

              Personally, out of the realistic choices, i want Collazo.

              Tim Bradley really, but there would be non stop bitching about him fighting another JR welter.

                    One opponent Mayweather will not be facing is Matthew Hatton, the brother of former junior welterweight champ Ricky Hatton, whom Mayweather knocked out in a 2007 welterweight title fight. Reports in Matthew Hatton's native England indicate that he is under consideration.

                    However, Schaefer said that is not the case.

                    "There is absolutely no truth to the rumors about Matthew Hatton. I can't tell you for sure who Floyd will fight, but I can tell you for sure it won't be Matthew Hatton," Schaefer said.
