    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.
    As much love and respect you have for black people? haha. where do they fight?

      Realistically... Floyd makes Angulo look silly.

      I'm not a Floyd fan, and Angulo has always entertained me in the ring... but I think it's a stylistic mis-match.

        Martinez and Williams are locked in to fight already. Cotto has to get his shoulder worked on. Angulo to the boxing fans nice but to the businees ppl that make the fight he's not a big enough name. Why would anyone want to see him fight anyone in a lower weight class?

        edit: Bradley and Alexander trying to workout a fight for Jan 2011

          Who knows... all this talk of Dubai.

          I am thinking someone in Dubai offered Floyd a lot of money to fight there...

            I have come to believe that Floyd starts slowly,but gets stronger as the fight goes on,while Cotto starts faster but fades later!!I think Cotto jabs well early on & if by some miracle Stewart can keep him pumping his jab,that fight can end up very close!!

              I got 50 million that he doesn't.

              Just forget about that fight.
              then who is he going to fight in Dubai?

                He bounced back with a title fight victory at a new weight class.

                And regardless of his loss to Pacquiao.. he still brings in the cash.



                Floyd doesn't care he lost to Pacquiao, Cotto brings in money.
                I dont think he will fight Cotto. He doesnt want to fight a Top Rank fighter but we will see.

                    The only thing going for him? That sounds like a good deal going for him.

                    I know what you mean though. I don't see this fight happening. Berto isn't big enough of a name nor does he gain much from beating him. I doubt Floyd cares about getting back the belt he vacated.

                    I think it would be a good fight and I would love to watch it but I just don't see it happening.

                      I see Floyd leaning straight back on a few of those jabs and coming in with a straight right hand, like he's done to every single opponent up until now.

                      The problem with the jab is, it CAN work against Floyd... but only for so long.

                      You can't come in to a fight with Floyd as a one trick pony... it will for a minute, but the next minute, your jab will start to be countered.
