    Floyds and ricks next step????

    For Ricky surely he will fight oscar in the uk or maybe a fight with cotto??? Floyd said Ricky was the hardest opponent he has ever faced." i hit this kid in the 8th round with everything and he kept coming back, i was like darnn"
    The punch that did knock ricky out wasnt the hardest of punches i dont think it was just was so accurate.

    For ricky to step up to welter again after a doggy performance against collazo and show so much heart against the best p4p at welter shows what a great fighter is he, willing to step up and FIGHT ANYONE

    Now onto floyd. Well WOW this guy is amazing said what he was going to do and did it. Used his elbows so much but he gets away with it and ricky said he would do the same to floyd. But when asked will he fight cotto as this is maybe a bigger challenge he basically said no and called it a day. I think if floyd really wants to go down as one of the all time true greats of the sports then he must accept the challenges that are legit, he did it with ricky hatton so he must do it with cotto then he will go down as possible the best ever. He only 30 as well!!!

    39-0 or 40-0 i know which number i like!!!

    PBF has only 3 potential fights IMHO.

    1: Mosley: Mosley will have to win a warm up fight before this fight which fits in well with PBF's vacation, putting the fight at sometime this summer. Huge money and very big name. Mosley is also still very sharp.

    2: DLH, just so much money out there for this fight. PBF has always stated that he would love a DLH rematch $$$$. Well main reason for PBF is money.

    3: Cotto, probably around the same amount of money PBF would get for fight Mosley but more risk. He can do it to further solidfy his already great career.

    Ricky has no potential opponents at 147lbs or higher. To much depth of talent and power for Ricky. Ricky could go back down to 140lbs and fight Witter, Paulie or even Torres. If Ricky can also have a warm up fight to lead into a possible Juan Diaz fight at 140lbs. Juan has for some time now shown interest and willingness to go up in weight to fight Hatton.

        Paul Williams would give Floyd the most trouble, but financially it doesn't make sense. Cotto, Mosley, DLH are the fights that would make him the most money.

        As for Hatton, he should move back down to 140 and fight Maliganggi or Witter.

          Like stated earlier Williams is not nearly a big enough name for PBF to get high interest in. Mosley, Cotto, DLH all bring in more money with there bigger name recognition and lets be honest its Floyd "Money" Mayweather and if he does fight again he is gonna want to make maximum amount of money and Williams doesn't supply that at the time.

            Ricky has to go down to 140, all the top guys at 147 are just too big and hit too hard. Maybe a fight with Malignaggi. Then just pack it in.
