      Remote possibility of this happening next year. No reason to get worked up until something is set in stone.

        floyd is his own boss, so what oscar de la hoyas sex partner says isnt necessarily true. I expect a floyd hater to take this and run with it, but seriously..... u know this fight wont happen...

          During a recent interview with Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, he advised BoxingScene.com's Bill Emes that undefeated welterweight prospect Saul Alvarez (29-0, 22KOs) of Mexico is a dark horse to land a potential fight with Mayweather in 2010.

          maybe this is just another negotiation tactic by floyd to get more leverage v pac-cotto winner

            whatever happened to Kayjay and the haters like him....they were atleast not idiots like some of these haterz. Since when has Schaefer ever spoke for Floyd. If Floyd ain't said it, then it ain't happening!

                Mosley
                Cotto
                Pacquiao
                Margarito
                ...I could go on

                I like like Floyd and I think he's amazing but he needs to step up his competition. His career would be sooo much better if he faced the guys above (even if he didn't beat them all)

                      Every time anyone is critical of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. for his opponent selection, one of his cult members comes out and says, “Be patient. He’ll fight [Insert Actual Feasible Opponent Here] next.”

                      So how do you explain this one, cultists? How do you explain Mayweather’s promoter, Golden Boy boss Richard Schaefer, talking about him fighting a 19-year-old welterweight prospect named Saul Alvarez?

                      Keep in mind: Mayweather has already said he won’t “wait around” for the winner of Manny Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto Nov. 14. He has said he is “not ready” to step into the ring with Shane Mosley. His trainer Roger Mayweather has dismissed the idea of fighting Paul Williams. Really, those are the only acceptable opponents for Jr. right now.

                      But did anybody think he would sink so low as fighting an unproven 19-year-old? I joked about him probably fighting Alfonso Gomez next, but at least Gomez has won a couple real fights. Alvarez is a promising prospect, and he does draw a crowd, but how can anyone — even the most delusional followers of Mayweather — take this seriously?

                      I can already anticipate the responses from the Mayweather crowd: “But he’ll make so much money fighting Alvarez in Mexico.” Or: “Mayweather can’t do anything right according to his critics. Everybody said he should fight a welterweight, and now he’s fighting a welterweight, so what more do you want from him?” You people — you’re hilarious.

                      Mayweather is a joke. He’s not a real fighter. He’s some kind of boxing exhibition performer, but he should not and cannot be held in any esteem for his guts. None. He ought be ashamed of himself, as should his promoter for even floating this trial balloon, but Mayweather’s career for the last six years has, for the most part, been an exercise in shamelessness. The joke would be offensive if it wasn’t so funny because of how audacious a sham Mayweather is.

                      MOst prefer dignified champs.
