    Floyd is so special that barring Manny Pacquaio, and even he's an underdog, that nobody from the stacked weight classes of 140 to 154 is a viable fight...

    Id like Pac or GGG/Martinez but failing that a young buck who's live and can **** like Keith Thurman

      Which fighters fit the criteria of "has a chance of losing against"?
      Money talked him out it. People werent going to buy it. Just like the way money is talking Floyd out of picking Khan. Floyd always talks about PPV numbers and doesnt want a let down.

        If you really think this so be it.

        Who are the fighters in september that would fit the criteria of "has a chance of losing against"?

          I hope he fights Danny Garcia in September. That was the fight that should have happened this May.

          But he better fight someone like that if he doesn't at least fight Maidana, and chooses Khan.

            I hoped bradley would leave top rank so he could fight floyd in september or next year but that didnt happen...

            At 154 there is lara but it probably won't sell so i don't see it happening.

            The best fight that should have taken place is martinez at 154 or a catchweight. I don't get why it didn't happen. Martinez looks beatable and he is willing to move down for floyd. The other big fight at 154 is golovkin but the chances for that is slim to none.
