    Who will Floyd fight in Sept. if he beats Maidana?

    I'm wondering who everyone thinks Floyd will face next, I personally think it'll be Ruslan Provodnikov or the Amir Khan/Luis Collazo winner. I'm curious as to everyone else think it'll be, I doubt it's going to be Pacquiao but one can dream.

    Hopefully Khan (doubtful due to Ramadan) or Lara.

        I think Erislandy Lara would've been perfect for September until Canelo was really sneaky and picked up the fight. It leaves Floyd without a lot of options, I do think that Shawn Porter vs. Keith Thurman should be the co-feature as that would be a hell of a fight and a perfect setup for Floyd to build up another opponent.

            Ah yeah completely forgot about Lara vs Canelo.

            Thurman vs Porter would be a super fight, would love to see that. But Porter's dad turned the fight down only recently, not sure if he's changed his mind.

                Khan definitely has faster hands.

                  Probably Paul Malignaggi

                  He has fast hands too.

                    The only reason I think they turned the fight down was the fact it didn't have enough money involved and Porter's name goes down the drain real quick with a loss to Thurman instead of Malignaggi.

                    If Thurman has a good KO on Diaz, I could see him facing Matthysse next with Porter fighting Brook on the same card. That'd be a hell of a Barclays Center card, then put Porter/Thurman co-feature for Mayweather's May 2015 card.

                    Barclays Center - Brooklyn, NY
                    Shawn Porter vs. Kell Brook
                    Keith Thurman vs. Lucas Matthysse
                    Peter Quillin vs. Daniel Jacobs

                    Sign me up for that event!
