    He's got the right attitude. He finishes out his contract next year. If he takes care of business it will go down in 2015.

        I agree with Tim on the style of fighter that can compete with Floyd. The last few guys were tailor made for him. Mosley, Cotto, and Judah had good hand speed and touched Floyd. Shane had him rocked and its my belief the Shane that fought Oscar back in 2000 would have finished him. Judah was actually the better athlete than Floyd, but his lack of discipline and focus caused him to fall off as the fight went on. Cotto simply wasn't good enough to win the fight. Floyd is a wizard in the ring, but a fighter that can box and have good athletic ability can give him hell. Its not a coincidence that he's not fighting those style of fighters.

            Good post.

            Floyd picks guys that will make his style shine. Ortiz, Guerrero, both are southpaws but right hand dominant, Guerrero is slow and plodding, I would've loved to see how the Ortiz fight played out. Floyd was finding his rhythm but Ortiz looked game; I still don't doubt Floyd winning at all. Just want to see how far Vic can push him.

                Tim Bradley bringing out points floyd fans dont realize to see.
                Canelo, Guerrero, Ortiz De La Hoya,marquez, loldamn just realized i listed all the mexicans...were not fast enough, quick feet to get to floyd.
                I believe floyd knows this that these guys cant get to him enough n just fights em all on exican holidays. Even an old mosley got to floyd, and a supposed washed up cotto, sownat more of a washed up Pacquiao.
                Well that least if floyd fights khan , itll be the first fighter in a while with quick hands n feet

                  Other than the Pac fight, THIS is the fight I want to see.

                  Bradley dropped a gem.

                  "Mayweather's gonna have to want to fight me."

                  You can do all you want, and convince Bob all you want, but when the man you want to fight doesn't want to, what can you do?
