    However Mayweather vs Bradley should happen but we all know that it won't for the exact same reasons as the Pac fight.
    Khan I can except. He has been calling for it, he has a name and a good record. Nope, he hasn't done shat lately, but I still want to see the fight. It somewhat intriguing to some because of the speed, even though for me, the outcome is a forgone conclusion.

    I say Broner, because that would be the end of 2015, so he will have time to grow as a fighter and in size. Unless its 2023 or so, he doesn't beat Mayweather either though and maybe not even then.

        As long as he continues to fight top ranked fighters I'm happy.

        I personally would like to see Garcia next, might be a tad too soon but the options are really low? What else is there?

        Alexander is possible, a unification fight against a Top welter but how good is that fight? Not really too great.

        This is how low the options are at this moment in time.

          The only reason that Pac's fights live up to the hype is because he mostly fights fighters that stand right in front of him. Give him any movement ala Bradley or Mosley and he doesn't live up to the hype either.

            In a perfect world, Floyd would fight Bradley and Pac his next two fights but that shidt aint gonna happen because of the politics with Top Rank.

            That said, Khan would be interesting if the fight was in the UK and had an event type feel to it. Khan without a solid fight before Floyd at the MGM is nothing more than a tuneup like Guerrero was last year.

            And nobody has a better resume since 2007 than Floyd. Especially when you factor in what Floyds opponents did the fight before they fought Floyd. A bunch of Champions and future HOF'ers on that resume.

              I see Garcia as not much of a challenge. At least Khan't has some speed and don't like him much, so I would love to see him KO'd again. Garcia, I like the guy! LOL

              Alexander, I just can't see him doing much of anything with Floyd, if he couldn't do much against a lesser Bradley....plus the PPV wouldn't sell much!

              Maybe Martinez at 154 or 155, but I can hear it now if he took that fight and won.

                Well be that as it may...They at least live up to the Hype...and therefore are more exciting to watch.

                Movement? You mean when guys run for their life? Yeah thats pretty lack lustrous. Clottey as well. Mannys Fault? No. Floyds Fault? Yes! Your point valid? No!

                  Hatton Cotto and Alvarez are the only PPV worthy fights. Maybe JMM since Floyd came out of retirement, but he cheated Juan big time on the scales, AFTER Juan moved up 2 weight classes. Money May da best doe.

                  I enjoy watching Floyd fight, but I don't pay for his ppvs. I paid for Canelo and Hatton. Thank god I didn't pay for Ortiz. That fight would've been interesting
                  The fact you didn't say Hoya is puzzling but then again a lot of people didn't follow boxing at that time so I'll let it slide.

                  Overall I enjoyed the Guerreo fight but it was the least out of all the fights I mentioned. I expected Guerreo to fight with the dirty tactics he did vs Berto. The fact that he didn't/couldn't made it for a less appealing fight.

                  The JMM was a great fight considering what JMM had preciously done in the Pac fights and the fact that Floyd was coming off a long layoff/"retirement".

                  The Ortiz fight could have been an exciting one which would have led to the same result IMO with a lot more action if Ortiz hadn't head butted Mayweather. Ultimately it was a horrible fight. No better than a Clottey, Margarito or Mosley type fight when Pac chose to fight them. Only difference was, they were all past prime and coming off the worst losses while Ortiz was at least coming off his best which doesn't say much.

                    So boxing fans, tell us who do YOU want to see fight Floyd Mayweather?
                    Mayweather himself said he cherry picks. Why are you being a ***?
