    Well it looks like Queen Con is next in line for a Floyd fight, which is complete BS. An 80 year old Pac is more legit than Amir 'Stanky leg Queen' Con. But of course the Floyd groupies will somehow find a way to call it a more legit fight than Pac

      Its not a legit fight Khan has been stopped by Garcia , he dont deserve a May fight , but from their point of view its a very lucrative fight at Wembley if Khan is impressive winning his next , I doubt Floyd would fight him in Vegas , I think its a toss up between khan in the UK and Garcia in Vegas .

      Then Manny in sept , some very big pay days for Floyds last 4 fight by just getting the order right .

        Manny whips Floyd like Judah did the first 4 rounds of their fight except he does it for 12 rounds.

          That's why Floyd ducked the fight. I am now convinced that Manny is too much for Floyd's style.

                I really believe that the biggest obstacle to Floyd vs. Manny has always been Bob Arum. I'm not saying it's the only obstacle,..but the most pressing obstacle. I really think that the 800 pound elephant in the room is Floyd's ego vs. Arums greed and ego.

                From a business standpoint this was an impossible hurdle.

                From a boxing standpoint: Manny was at his peak during and after the Hatton and Cotto fights. There is no way anyone cannot tell me that this version wouldn't have given Floyd a real challenge.

                Fast forward to present: Floyd is arguably the fresher man right now. Manny's speed and workrate is not quite what it used to be. Is it gone for good,...probably. Rios will provide some answers. Mainly in re: to Manny's chin,..But we will find out about other things too.

                I think an impressive win against Rios should be enough to warrant Pac vs. May in May. The main reason for this is that the fighters are not getting any younger. Another defeat for Pac,..and it's over.

                  I usually agree with all your predictions but If floyd was to fight PAC PAC would get that ass whipped. I'm sure you'd never bet on that. Swift should be next for floyd he deserves it more than anybody.

                    Yup. To some up all arguments in here. This is it in a nut shell.

                      I agree swift should be next, but after watching Judah vs Floyd it's clear that Floyd will never have an easy day with southpaws who match his handspeed, plus Pacquiao is relentless with his attack and hits much harder than Judah, Judah gassed and got whipped but Pac would be able to sustain an attack like Judah did for a whole 12 rounds... We'll have to see how Pac is against Rios because he could be shot for all I know... I'll end it with this though, prime Pac circa 09-10 would certainly be no walk in the park for Floyd..
