    The critics don't know **** about Boxing if they criticize him for taking on either one of those fighters.

      yeah but I think Floyd is good on them now. I dont think he has any kind of extra trouble with them anymore. Does that mean that they dont give him problems? No, but I dont think none of them will get him ready for Pac. I could see him fighting a Collazo because he's a solid opponent, a legit WW, and the Southpaw stance is an added bonus but all of those guys styles are still night & day from Pac
      True but I do believe he'd strongly benefit from facing a south paw. Quintana would be his best option, in that Quintana can move but that would also be a threat.

          He should fight a top opponent if he's not counting on the Pacquiao fight ever materializing. If he's still holding out hopes for a Pac fight to come off, he can take on a good southpaw for much less money to prepare for Pacquiao. He may even be offered a lucrative payday in the UK which he might possibly take.

            Depends truly on how tough of a fight the Berto fight is. At this point Mosley has been out for over 12 months too and if the fight is something like PAC vs HATTON where it only last two rounds and Mosley doesn't get hit or busted up why can't they fight in early May? If that is not a viable option I think he should face a guy like Quintana I would defintely not fight Collazo or Corey Spinks. Besides Spinks is fighting at 154 now isn't he? I would get with Quintana and Collazo as a last resort. Collazo is a tough hungry fighter who styles can give people nightmares.....Lefty

              Yeah but May is still 8 months from the JMM fight which was 2 years from his previous fight. Thats why I think he wants one before then. Im a huge Collazo fan and stuff but I think Floyd kills all those guys now that he's filled into his body and is use to fighting Southpaws. I would like to see him fight someone like that but I doubt it happends. I dont see him fighting a Spinks or Quintana simply because they are straight 154 now if you ask me. I think he could definatly do it but I dont think he wants to go up and come back down right now
