    2 things are certain, well maybe more....

    1) floyd is faster than cotto, and cott's speed gave margarito problems....
    2) floyd is waaaaaay better defensively than cotto, so it really wont matter how many punches margarito throws- floyd moves....

    3) floyd won't stand there and trade w/ margarito
    4) floyd is BUILT to go the distance, doesn't run into stamina problems like cotto did....

    all the things i mentioned, let to cotto's demise....problem is, everything cotto did to give margarito trouble, floyd does better. not to mention he's smarter than cotto....

    cotto's a great fighter, but mayweather is a whole diff type of beast.

      Well i see its economy with Margarito that's known better defensively none better than Floyd all he'd have to do is 3 punch combos & move Floyd beats them both but only by using his punch economically against Margarito

        All depends on how pacman performed on 06 december, if he would win then the best matched-up would be Floyd vs. pacman! better than anyone else. It would be the defining moment who would reign as the P4P king. Pacman would be easily defeated??? Floyd and Pacman have almost if not equal size, and pacman southpaw style is unpredictable, only JMM gave him much problem on his style.

              If Pac somehow won, PBF would fight him. Other than that, I don't think there's any other options. People will **** on rematches between he and Hatton or DLH. He'll never fight Marg, and even if Cotto won the rematch against Marg, I don't think that fight appeals to PBF anymore either. Who else? Pwill? Clottey? No ****in way. I always thought he'd be back 4 sho but I'm startin to think he really is retired for good.

                Yeah he is not going to fight any of those guys, because Pacquiao is still more marketable. They are too much risk, too little reward.

                  I think the only way for PBF to come back is if Manny wins on the 6th. Other than that there is no reason for him to come out of retirement. I honestly dont think he would fight Hatton or DLH again as there would be no benefit to his resume. Whereas a win over Manny would be an awesome way to end his career.

                    I even think that JMM can beat Mayweather as well. From all the commentary I've heard on Mayweather being a "Safety first" type of fighter and from watching him avoiding a "fire fight" with someone tells me that he can be beaten by the likes of a Pacman or JMM. I'd like to see a Pacman-Mayweather fight just to see if Mayweather would actually fight or run from the Pacman fury. JAT

                      If Floyd comes back I hope he doesn't do this rematch bull****. Fight someone you haven't fought yet.
