    I think Cotto would fair well in a rematch, doubt a win but would give a better fight then all above mentioned. Pac would be my 2nd choice.

      pacquiao and then bradley. The two most experienced and proven. Ever wonder why Miguel Cotto did so much better than canelo against mayweather? Because of cotto's experience. Experience is very important at the highest level unless you are rigondeaux lol. Pacquiao and Bradley you know will perform under the bright lights because we've seen them do it.

      Thurman is good but the guy has not even fought an elite fighter For ****s sake. Garcia is even better but again I think he hasn't reach his full potential.

I wait TO SEE how you explain this THIS SHOULD BE FUNNY
        I appreciate fighters like Vasquez, really I do, but there's nothing I've seen from him that suggests he's even a top shelf fighter let alone the one fighter at 147 that would upset the best fighter in the world. Footspeed to match Floyd? You can't be serious. While there are some fighters larger than Floyd who could cause him problems (GGG, Martinez, Lara), there are none smaller.
        Vasquez has fought exactly two world class fighters (Canelo, Bradley). He got white washed by both, and you think this is the one to upset Floyd? Like I said, I admire Vasquez and fighters like him but no.........

              Styles make fights and Mayweather is easy work for Pacman.

                And after Floyd schools him it will obvious to you Manny had lost what he had right , isnt that the case ?

                  yes, styles do make fights. What is it about Pacs style makes you think Mayweather would be easy work?

                  The tools JMM uses to be highly effective vs Pac are great balance and precise counter punching. Coincidently these are things Floyd has mastered. Throw in Floyds speed, excellent sense of distance, and great defense, this won't be close. Look for Floyd to win a 9-3,8-4, type UD.

                    the Canelo fight was a robbery Vasquez won both fights that's why they had a rematch because many thought Canelo lost both and the Bradley fight he lost but if they fight now he beats him it was because of the lack of experience. you just don't get it and you don't know what you are seeing but Sr Floyd sure does because he said it him self and Bey Vasquez is the best guy at 135 there words not my.

                    you didnt answer my question how will he beat Vasquez. I went you to explain it step by step
                    NOBODY at 135-147 has the footwork Vasquez has or the jab PERIOD .he has the best shot to win

                      It's clearly Pacquiao but we all know that Floyd is too scared to fight him.
