Floyd's Next Fight Options and Excuses

[sittingduck]

As far as I know it hasn't been announced who Floyd is fighting. But no matter who it is all of the guys who would gladly gargle a load of Manny's man juice (Pacquiao fans, not true boxing fans) will have a reason why Floyd's next opponent isn't good enough. Whereas anyone Pacquiao fights is at the top of their game.

So if Floyd fights any of these fighters next, what will be said to bring the opponent down as to not give Floyd any credit:

Trout
Geurrero
Canelo
Marquez
Bradley

If Manny was to fight any of these guys they would all be gods. But if Floyd fights them he is ducking/cherrypicking/whatever.

"Cotto is second prime'd and undefeated"

"I'm stepping in the ring with the best version of Cotto"

You seem upset.

I have no problem with him fighting Pac, JMM or Bradley

Out of that list, I'd be okay with him fighting Trout and Marquez. The other three guys on your list haven't done anything to merit a Mayweather fight.

By the way Guerrero's biggest win was against Aydin, who got ran over by Soto-Karass who was himself KO'd by Maidana. Does that mean Maidana should be in the running for the Mayweather fight? lol.

The only 2 on this list that are worthy opponents are Marquez and Bradley in my opinion. Floyd already dominated Marquez so there is no point in a rematch. Trout is big at 154 and is truly too big for Floyd, as he was for Cotto. Canelo has not beat any top contenders in his own division, neither has Guerrero. Bradley, to me, presents the biggest challenge and makes the most sense. He was an undisputed jr ww champ and he has the controversial victory over Manny. He is a skilled guy with a deep amateur background and is always in phenomenal shape. If Floyd had trouble with an older worn version of Cotto, then he would catch hell with this young lion. Floyd needs to fight Martinez and be done. There truly is no other challenge out there that makes sense. Go for the undisputed middleweight championship and call it quits.

Floyd dont fight anyone special and certainly no one his peers wouldnt fight at a drop of a hat. FLoyd also fights less than his peers, so has an easier ride.

Whoever he decides to fight is therefore usually anti climatic and no big deal. He should fight all those guys mentioned, but in a short space of time with 6 months max inbetween each fight.

Welcome to the real world of boxing floyd.

if it no big deal then why do you always talk about him 24/7

He wont fight anyone special so its no big deal. The only reason it is a talking issue is cos Floyd dont fight much, so builds it into a bigger deal than it actually is.

Floyd fighting is a rare occurance like the total eclipse of the sun. But the total eclipse is a big deal. Who floyd fighting isnt. The fact that Floyd is actually fighting is a shock therefore a talking point.

Anybody Floyd faces he will not get full credit for they will be considered cherry picked, too old, not enough experience etc. Martinez is the best fight out there but I think the weight will be too much for Floyd. The two times he fought at 154 he rehydrated to 151. If they fight at a catch weight if Floyd wins the excuse will be that Martinez was weight drained.
