    He wont be ruined for a loss from floyd...hes gonna lose anyway, better lose with him than against ...i dont know...Quintana?
    i agree i think dibella would take the fight big money for him. plus berto has to think if i lose ohwell atleast my first loss came from the top p4p fighter. if by some miracle he actually pulls it off he can say i beat the great floyd maywheather and took his 0. like i said MIRACLE.

      I think he should take a couple of tune-up fights... because of his long break from boxing there is a chance of him getting 'ring rust' I am not saying this is a certainty but everyone is human and there is a chance.

      So yeah, have a tune-up fight or two before taking on a big fighter so he is properly ready before having a massive fight.

        joshua Clottey would get him a belt, be a respectable and somewhat risky opponent and would really bring him back into the publics eye. Personally I would love to see him fight Cotto for a title. Good money and a lot of respect should he win.

          Joel Casamayor,Junior Witter, or Devon Alexander all of them are good southpaws... except witter.... But I think all would be good tune up fights
          for floyd.. and each of them push floyd alittle before he fights Pacquaio or Hatton. and each of them are better than Alfonzo gomes, Micheal Jennings, and Golden Johnson.
          well if he does than I would love to see him fight Marquez, if he would step up one more weight class, and I mean absolutely love that match up. What a great way to setup the Pacman fight. The battle for Pac! Unfortunately 140 has no big names to appeal besides Hatton.

              You think Marquez would be a tune up for Floyd..?
              I think Marquez vs. Floyd is a P.P.V fight...
              Not a tune up fight...

                the only fights floyd would come back for are pac-man at 147 or hatton at 147!
                he aint got the balls to fight cotto,marg or williams!
                he aint even got the balls to fight hatton at 140!
                he was lucky to beat dlh!
                when he was at 140 he ducked tszyu!
                at 147 who did he fight?.. baldomir!!!
                he only fought hatton cause he knew he had a height/weight/reach advantage!!
                did you see the tears of releif when he beat hatton?!!!
                floyd jnr`s a great boxer but he`s got no balls!!

                    Most people think Mayweather would beat Hatton pretty easily in a rematch, so why not have him as a tune up and make $20 million?
