    yeah, i'd love to see that go down. hopefully the lara/martirosyan fight is a great fight and the winner (hopefully lara) can challenge someone like the cotto/trout winner or k9. i think if cotto wins though he'd go straight after alvarez.

          GBP is obviously hoping Cotto beats Trout, so they can make Cotto-Canelo for May. I think Canelo will probably unify with Bundrage, not a bad fight, it's a solid unification with a Top 10 SWW, something he hasn't fought since Rhodes (who was ehhh at best).

          But if Trout wins, I can either see him landing the Canelo fight or the Lara fight, once Lara smokes Vanes. But to be fair, Trout pretty much ducked Lara.
          You should be all kidding. You obviously don't know what you're talking about there. There's only 1 person I know Floyd will absolutely duck at 154. That's Martinez if, (big if) he beats Chavez.

            I think Floyd-Sergio could happen, but it doesn't absolutely need to. Would it be great and do I want to see it....absolutely. Don't get so defensive/sensitive, really.

            Floyd needs to fight Pacquiao and vice-versa before anything else though.

              Pacman can't even beat Marquez convincingly. There really isn't any reason for that fight. I want to see the best fighters that can compete at 154 fight each other there. Both top 5 pfp (realistically).

              After Marquez schools Pacman on december 8th, I wonder if you'll still feel that way. I think what you want is for Floyd to fight Pacman because you know he'll win. But you're not so sure if he can beat Martinez. Like I said though, if Martinez does beat Chavez & issues the call-out & Floyd fights ginger, (which he will), it's a duck.

                Should we acknowledge the fact that Pac beat Oscar in a one sided shutout and made him quit on the stool, or that Pac KO'd Hatton in two? Or that Pac KD Mosley, or are these not relevant, and only Marquez is? Did Floyd do any of that? Use some logic, kid.

                    I don't think Floyd will fight Alvarez until Alvarez fights Cotto/Trout winner or gets a few solid wins against Top 154 lb fighters.

                    I want Floyd to fight Pacquiao because they are STILL two of the best fighters in the world, as evident by Manny beating Bradley, and yes he did beat Bradley handily and convincingly.

                    I want Floyd-Sergio, but to say Floyd is ducking a MW is ridiculous. I guess Sergio is ducking Andre Ward then.

                      If Trout beats Cotto, it'd make Floyd's win over him look even more unspectacular. Trout should go for any major title if he beats Cotto though
