    If Lara can beat Canelo then he absolutely becomes an attractive option for Floyd.

      Lara is with GBP and I think they will offer more cash to Martinez, A-side billing, and helps be the one making demands.

      I don't mind GGG though

        You would think so considering its going to be on PPV. But i think floyd will fight khan-luis winner or maybe someone like danny or someone like that. He doesn't really like fighting 154 ponders unless there is a really big paycheck on the line (Oscar, Canelo, Cotto)

          I honestly think floyd chose the right opponent in maidana and will do so again with lara, IF he gets past conelo. A win over conelo is FAR more impressive than a win over luis. Floyd is no dummy, he wants the guy in the ring that people think have a chance of beating him. Lara is a legit threat if he hurts conelo.

            I can't think of a better opponent, khan needs to prove himself at welter, beat a porter or thurman. Until then, i'm not interested in a khan fight.

              Over looking Canelo I see. Talking like it's a foregone conclusion. Let's remember this.

                Yes he want a guy in the ring that people think can beat him, but not a guy that can actually beat him. If Khan beats Luis, then thats enough incentive for people to think he can beat floyd. Remember people already thought khan had a shot because of his "speed".

                    I'm a floyd fan (and a pac fan) and I never bought the speed theory, but I know alot of people did. It's all about the fan base....but then there's maidana, not a mexican and not necessarily a household name. Khan is obviously the bigger name, that has to say something.

                      Will he? Doubt it. Shoulda he? Probably. But also Lara is July and Floyd is in September so note nought turn around for lara
