    Rank your list of credible threats to Floyd Mayweather

    There's a never ending discussion about Floyd cherry picking his opponents claiming he always takes the easiest fights. I don't necessarily agree or disagree with one side over the other. But please do me a favor and list the four people you would most like to see Floyd fight in order of their threat level to Floyd. Which four fighters should be on Floyd's radar to end his six fight contract with Showtime.

    No trolls or dumb **** please.

    Serious discussion only.

    Last 4 fights that I'd like to see are;

    Maidana
    Garcia
    Bradley
    Thurman

    A lot might have changed by this time next year so that fourth option could change.

    And it looks like it's going to be Khan next anyway so that list is unlikely to happen.

      As of now thats not a bad list save for the glaring admission of Manny Pacquiao. He needs to go where Maidana is.

            His next 4 will probably, and sadly be something like.

            Khan, Malignaggi, Cuenca, Judah.

                  I'd like to see GGG come down to 154 and fight Floyd. He'd beat Floyd for sure.

                  I'd also like to see Martinez come down to 154 and fight Floyd. He offered a catchweight of 152 a few years ago but Floyd turned it down. Even now, he'd beat Floyd imo.

                  Lara vs Floyd at 154 would be a 50/50 fight imo.

                  I obviously still wanna see the Pac fight as well. I think that's also 50/50 now, 3/4 years ago I would've picked Pac to beat him though.

                  Other than those 4, I can't see anyone beating Floyd atm.

                    Lara
                    Pacquiao
                    Bradley
                    Zou Shiming


                    Honestly Pacquiao is all wrong for Floyd. Lara would beat Floyd at 154 period.
