Brook or Canelo will get the Floyd fight imo.

brook has ZERO name recognition in the U.S though. thats a tough sell.

here's a possible scenario: floyd will have his easy fight sept against maidana or alexander or whoever. canelo/cotto on the card to help sell it and canelo will get guarantee for cinco de mayo next year.

My thought-process was that Floyd would take the trip to England.

Canelo, Pac, or Martinez better be next...hell I'd rather see a Cotto rematch than all these cherry picked C class fighters

I posted this a little while ago before I saw this article, and it makes me believe it even more:
These are the order of top challenges:
1 Canelo
2 Broner
3 Pacquiao (yes, still)
4 Trout
5 Bradley
6 Matthyse
7 Garcia
8 Khan
9 Peterson
10 Alexander

Floyd has 5 fights left on his contract and will probably retire at that opint. He should fight 3 of the top 6, with 2 more fights against the bottom of the list. But, If Floyd took even 2 of the top 6, it would be ok. unfortunately, I think we'll be lucky to get 1, and instead will get fights vs. Khan, Alexander and Garcia with maybe even some lower level fighters thrown in, like an Ortiz rematch or Berto

Not a bad list. Golovkin and Martinez are willing to drop down to 154 for a floyd fight also. But I think at this point Martinez doesn't pose a threat to beat Floyd anymore. Obviously I'd have Golovkin at 1 but he's much bigger and a harder puncher. I don't think anyone expects Floyd to take a fight like that.

what about matthyse?

who that!?!? ...oh HIM?!?...I hope Peterson doesn't beat him up too bad....WAR Lucas
