Mayweather Personal Assistant:BIG FIGHT ANNOUNCEMENT COMING SOON!!!!"

I hope it aint Cotto. He needs to fight bigger guys he is too good for the fighters round his division.

I highly doubt that Mayweather is signed to fight anyone at this point. Unless he knew for a 100% fact he would get his sentance pushed back.

i hope it's cotto. better late than never.

The only big fight other then Manny would be Cotto. Cotto would make him the most money aside from Manny. As much as diehard boxing fans would love to see Sergio and Floyd, there just isn't enough attraction from the average boxing fan for Sergio.

so if they will announce it next week that means there's already a designated opponent...and of course before that there were negotiations made with the said opponent. in that case floyd is no longer open to any other negotiations...how come some people are acting like he can still negotiate a fight?

I wouldn't consider the Margarito fight a big win for Cotto. Margarito is shot and the stoppage was caused by a damaged eye socket, an eye socket that Pacquiao broke a year earlier. Mayweather needs to fight Pacquiao before they both get too old. In the context of this fight it is a big win, they are looking for a May 5th opponent having Floyd fight a guy that Mexicans despise is fairly wise.

Either Cotto or Sergio. Sergio would be an A fight, Cotto at 154 would be a B+. Same goes for Manny Pacquiao. Was Floyd granted a continuance??? I think I heard that, right?

Cotto seems likely. Mayweather has been fighting guys that were coming off big wins. I wouldn't consider the Margarito fight a big win for Cotto. Margarito is shot and the stoppage was caused by a damaged eye socket, an eye socket that Pacquiao broke a year earlier. Mayweather needs to fight Pacquiao before they both get too old.

Wait, I thought it was suppose to be Pacman according to half of these idiots on these boards.. Now its not.. SMH.. You cant believe anything this guy says..

Damn, isn't happening. loudibella Lou DiBella Response to dozens of ???s: No calls or inquiries whatsoever from Team Mayweather for Martinez on May 5. Not happening,obviously. 6 minutes ago Canelo here we come.

Cotto seems likely. Mayweather has been fighting guys that were coming off big wins.

What if it was Peterson or Bradley?

the shane fight, the JMM rubbermatch...if i get another letdown performance, i might start hating in 2012 im flying to philippines tonight (no joke)...i might end up going to gensan to tell manny to man up (joke) Indeed, I will see how it plays out first but really there are not credible guys out there for him to fight instead. I recommend an anonymous strippergram, they are hard to refuse and tend to soften getting bad news.

He fought JMM after Manny, so he can't be that averse to it. There are differences but even outdoing Manny it was still against a guy he fought and beat already. Yea true, but that was more of like a tuneup fight. Floyd just fought in September, he's warm. I really wish it was Martinez, just for historical significance.

Cotto seems too obvious.

I think Floyd takes the "leftovers" thing seriously and that's the one thing I see holding up Floyd-Cotto. He talks mad sh!t about Pac fighting guys Floyd already beat and I don't think he's trying to go and do just that. He fought JMM after Manny, so he can't be that averse to it. There are differences but even outdoing Manny it was still against a guy he fought and beat already.

Just got an email regarding Martinez-Macklin press conference. I'd be shocked if it was him. With Pacquiao pulling a Houdini every time Floyd is available, I suspect it'll be someone on GBP.

Sergio has a fight with Macklin at MW on March 17th. Even if he KO'ed him with the first punch he threw in the opening seconds of the fight, he still wouldn't have enough time to prepare for a May fight. He'd only have a month and 1/2 to train, make weight, promote, hold press conferences, etc. That's out. I don't think the Macklin/Martinez fight has been officially signed yet. And he could always bail out. Just give Macklin some step aside money.

Martinez or Pacquaio. That's all I'm interested in. No one else. I'm with you on that Dan. Cotto is done as an elite fighter and I have no interest in seeing Mayweather beat him up.

well, i would...noone wants to see a 4th marquez fight or any of these Boxing After Dark opponents his last two fights were stinkers...Floyd is now available...the posturing of wanting the fight...he should get a lot of blame as well I do kind of want to see a forth fight, but it is going to be the same story something new would be much more interesting. The rest of the clowns listed as possible opposition is :dance: It is his career, he should really take an interest in it, although I don't know if he understands the deal as it would probably be hard to get that in his compound with tons of yes men. But, hey that may leads to the possible conclusion of this seemingly never ending saga though although not in May.
