    Yeah it is the biggest fight. But you have to remember as well that te Margarito Cotto winner will really pressure Floyd again. You know every will ask him will you chicken out again?

      The last thing Pac fans want is their favorite fighter stepping in with Floyd.

        I agree 100%.

        He has to go out there and fight the best competetion. Well actually he doesnt HAVE to but to earn the respect of a good majority of the fans he needs to go out and fight the highest level of competition available to him.

        In the last few years he hasnt done much (in my opinion) to earn that top p4p spot. Throughout his career he's been brilliant and is definately one of the best of his time but CURRENTLY he hasnt done a whole lot.

        I think the best competition out there currently for mayweather is (in no order):

        Pacquiao
        Cotto
        Margarito

        Those are the top fighters out there for him. Its not a rematch with hatton or de la hoya...

        mayweather is a great fight though.

            yeah but the difference is that this time there is legimate opponents out there for every guy. No one would be upset at a Floyd-Pac match while the winner of the other fight has Williams & Clottey right there. You say that Cotto-Margarito will be pressuring Floyd but what do you think Williams will do to them? He'll be calling them a ***** for trying to fight a little Floyd when you have a real threat right here who will fight you any time any place. You know that no one will let Margarito get away with avoiding Williams after the Cotto fight because he has no one else

                i believe floyd should take on pacquiao first to get his title back (which i think will be one of the greatest fights in history) then to obtain his legacy, fight cotto and then marg. cotto will put up a fight but i dont think he even hurt marg in their fight. with that said, i think marg's the biggest challenge floyds got. if he beats these top fighters, thats when i'll believe he could be down as one of the greatest legends. til then, pacquiao's THE BEST out there and he's just the start of the luring for floyds retirement.

                  Pacman does more legacy wise than Cotto and Margarito

                    wrong. i would love to see that fight.

                    what i like about pac is he is vulnerable. he can be beat. he just managed to win via god knows how

                      Wait a second. Beating the P4P best boxer in the world who is the same size as you, you get no respect. What a joke of a thread
