1st off Dougie hates Floyd more than anything and I think you could read that in his reason. However, Ive made threads on here too saying that I think its very possible that Floyd would fight Berto next but I think you are wrong if you are going to diss him for it. I thought the reason he would fight Berto next is because every other one of his possible opponents fight 2 or 3 months away and Floyd is still coming back from a 2 year layoff. Would you really be upset if he fought Berto at WW in say, December? It would have no affect at all on his future belts as the other one's would be just about finished at that time. It would only be like 2-4 weeks after Pacquaio-Cotto and probably before the Mosley fight. He might feel that he needs that.
The other reason I thought it was possible is because "what if Cotto wins"? I have always said that I dont think its a great idea for Floyd to come off of a 2 year layoff, fight a guy like JMM at 144, and then fight a Cotto or a Mosley immediatly after at WW. It could be a shock to his system. It would be like going from a boy to a man. I really honestly 100% think that he wants to fight those guys now but I could see Berto in the meantime or as a tuneup for the "weight". With that being said, Floyd looks physicaly better than ever so he might go straight to them. All in all I think he will just wait and hope Pac wins so the weight thing isnt really a factor
