    floyd/berto is never gonna happen. berto is in haymon's stable.

    now you better start making excuses why jr WWs (khan or alexander) are legitimate fights for floyd

      I think those are all pretty decent indications... at the very least, better indications than anyone else right now.
      I'm thinking he goes to 154 and fights an ex contender Thats why I said love child. Dubai, Veags , or NYC if its Cotto?

        Cotto's shoulder surgery has him in jeopardy for a fight in December.

          I don't think he'll pitch a shut out, but to face PBF, i've noticed that his opponent has to be very coordinated, otherwise he's gonna make you look silly, and to me, Angulo style is 3-4 good rounds as opposed to PBF where he can go all 12 rounds while running around the entire fight.

            Yeah, actually I would.

            Also, if Cotto told Arum he wants to fight Floyd, and Cotto gave in to Floyds demands just to make the fight... I think the fight would actually be made.

            Also Cotto would do all the drug testing Floyd wanted and he would take a lesser split, I actually don't think Arum would be much of a problem if both Floyd and Cotto wanted that fight.

                  You need ring smarts to put your hands on someone like Mayweather, not psychical gifts, Berto has no smarts

                    3-4 good rounds,that's it??No,Angulo brings pressure all night & I'll go out on a limb & say his power is bigger than Mosley's,(which is big)!!I don't think Angulo will stop firing & I don't think Floyd can move away for 12 rounds,when Angulo lands,I don't think Floyd stays on his feet!!

                      It's possible Floyd fights a lesser name, takes 75% of the purse and uses it as a warm up fight for Pac in May...

                      IMO He should just fight Cotto... who in my opinion would be slightly tougher than a warm up.

                      I know people will disagree to the fullest etc... but I really don't think Cotto wins more than 2 rounds..

                      And I have nothing but love and respect for Cotto.

                      Yeah, I am curious when he is getting it done... and the severity of the sugery..

                      Not all surgeries are created equal.. soemtimes they just repair a small tendon, sometimes they restructure the muscle in the shoulder... one can take a month to heal the other can take 6-8 months.

                      So I am curious as to the severity of the injury/surgery, and also how soon he is going in for it.
