    5. Bradley
    6. Cotto 2
    7. Berto
    8. Guerrero
    9. Top 10 Contender at 154
    10. Alexander/Brook winner
    There you go.

    People keep forgetting that Mayweather is one year away from retirement. For a guy who has a hard time fighting more than once a year, he has virtually just one fight left. So all these silly Canelo has to fight this and that fighter talks are nonsensically unrealistic.

    So let's break it down: He won't fight Sergio and Pacquiao. Bradley is a Top Rank guy. Mayweather will never rematch Cotto. Don't even mention Alexander/Brook winner.

    What is left? Guerrero/Berto winner or Canelo.

    So you would rather see Mayweather/Berto-Guerrero winner than Canelo? Makes me puke.

        Not Really...and that is on Canelo for fighting **** COMPETITION when he could have been trying to clean out his Division which would have made people more interested in a Canelo vs Mayweather fight

        Right Now...not all that interested because I don't think it will be a good fight...I think Mayweather would have absolutely NO PROBLEMS with Canelo

          Nooe its a wack fight that a lot of people will buy, which virtually assures that it'll be floyds next fight.

            I don't think Canelo is a very easy fight for Floyd, Floyd fights at a measured pace and Canelo likes to fight at the same sort of pace but is younger, hungrier and stronger.

            Now if Floyd is going to win obviously he would frustrate Canelo and outbox him that is certainly a possibility. On the other hand Canelo boxes and applies intelligent pressure, a guy like him could make it very hard for Floyd because he doesn't really get that wild so if he stays on point he could really make Floyd feel his age and if that happens all bets are off. I wouldn't really even be surprised if Floyd lost and if the number looks good I would lay chalk against him.

            I think it is an interesting fight, a test for both guys.

              There's a chance it could be solidly entertaining in the way Cotto vs Floyd was, but in reality, Saul (who I'm a big fan of) would be going from Josesito Lopez to Floyd Mayweather.

              This is the point from him to transition into fighting bona fide quality JMWs like Cotto, Lara etc. Not an ATG. But Canelo won't be fighting anyone half-decent before a Floyd fight cos GBP will be terrified he'll wreck a fight with Floyd like Khan did by losing.

                I wanna see the ginger tee off on mayweather. Mayweather has made it a habbit to lay on the ropes and shoulder roll all the incoming punches. The ginger hits hard and will go to the body like no one has with may. Make it happen after the gingers next fight
