    UD loss against Floyd, KO/TKO loss against Martinez. He makes more money against Floyd and a loss won't be judged that harshly, he's only 22 fighting against the P4P best fighter with decades of experience. I don't think his management or GBP wants a Martinez fight unless post-surgery Sergio is a shell of pre-surgery Sergio.

      That's actually a fair fight would love to see it.

      For now I want to see Canelo take on Lara and Molina
      Ehhh, Molina is a long shot, but if it isn't Mayweather or Cotto, I see Lara as the next option at 154..... if he wins his "eliminator" against Angulo

        If Canelo was a belt holder in the middleweight division I would love to see a Martinez fight but since he's not I wanna see a unification fight at 154 with Mayweather. That fight would be huge! Both fighters have huge fan bases and it would be for the undisputed title.

            Martinez destroys Canelo. Floyd has a belt at 154, so does Canelo, that's the bottom line. Until Floyd no longer has the belt, that is the fight that makes sense.

            If you are a 147 pound fighter, then you shouldn't have a belt at 154.

                He somehow has the super version of the WBA belt.... which is only supposed to work if you hold 2 titles.
                Remember when Gamboa got stripped of all his titles because he got stripped of the IBF first?

                  I'd love to see that fight too.... we might see it too if Mayweather decides to catch him in his last fight.
                  Honestly, I think Sergio's age is affecting his body.
                  He still has his speed and a damn good tank for his age though.


                  yeah fight night sergio is within a few pound of canelo on fight night.

                  canelo doesnt have a prayer in hell though with his stamina problems. He would get knocked out in the late rounds.

                    A fight with Floyd is more money but I don't see it happening at 154 Floyd doesn't look as good at 154 as he does at 147 and seeing Canelo fight saturday I think it will be too high a risk for Floyd to take that fight. I think Martinez would be a better fight to watch and I really hope he doesn't fight Cotto next I think Cotto is on his way out and its not a fight that catches my interest at this point

                      the ginger would get destroyed by a healthy Martinez, for very little pay. Floyd would be a better payday with less risk of getting KTFO
