Were talking about Floyd here. It sounds good in theory but I can already see the Floyd fights Mannys leftovers threads coming. Its a nice fight but if I was Floyd I wouldnt fight at all. Just hit the gym.Because what ever fight Mayweather does next, whether it's something late this year or early next year, it's going to have interest because of Floyd's jail sentence and the fact that it's Floyd.
Plus, if Mayweather-Bradley were made, it's a good tune-up like fight for Floyd, and proves TMT and TR can work together. It's also another win for Floyd over a Top 10 P4P and prime fighter around his weight.
If Pac-Bradley sold 900K PPV's, still not confirmed though, I'd be willing to bet May-Bradley could do 950K-1.0M PPV's.Comment

He fought a past prime-still good Cotto though, pretty much the same guy Manny had beat already. But he tried to one-up Manny doing it by fighting him at 154 lbs and moving up in weight. I doubt Floyd even fights this year honestly, but if he did, I wouldn't mind seeing Floyd-Bradley, especially considering who's available late this year.
But I think Floyd might hit the gym and just come back in April/May against Manny, hopefully.Comment

Floyd will get opposition no matter who he fights. But based on form, Bradley has to be considered based on the fact that he just beat Pacquiao, whether legit or not, and has also beaten another considered opponent, Devon Alexander. However, Pac equals more cash and publicity, and is known worldwide as one of the P4P top guys. Politics could prevent both of these happening though as Bob isn't going to want to risk seeing two of his best assets lose in succession.
I could see Bradley been more of the type to demand a Floyd fight though and standing up to Bob. So in my eyes Bradley at Christmas, then give Pac a take it or leave it offer in April, as in theory there should be no excuses about schedules, otherwise Canelo at 154. A young hungry pup although a little green, is easy to make with Golden Boy. Then by this time provided Sergio isnt too old and Floyd might have filled out a little more, roll the dice and go up to 160lb or try and tempt Pac in again in an open air stadium where they both retire.
This is all speculative though and to be honest I could well envisage Guerrero/Berto/Canelo as his next three unless TMT manage to bridge any potential conflicts. Here's hoping.Comment
