    Watch it be Luis Collazo if he wins, lol.

    If he beats Khan on Mayweather's undercard, it'll probably be him

      Exactly I just don't think there's enough time.

      Best idea I would say is have Porter-Brook winner fight Thurman later this year which would set up the winner of that for Floyd's May fight.

      I just can't see who it's going to be in September.

      There's Cotto if he beats Martinez. (Doubtful), There's Collazo if he beats Khan but I don't see that fight happening either.

        Doubt he takes that on a 3 month turnaround too....because negotiations will be hell

          Lara/Canelo winner at 154?

            Still kind of a short turnaround for either in July to Sept.

            Only Lara takes that fight on that turnaround too

              Possibly but only if Lara wins and if he does I don't think he brings enough money to the table for Floyd to fight above his weight class.

              We know he only fights above 147 for big money.

              But that's a possibility solely because of the severe lack of options.

                Lara would look good if he schools Canelo on PPV.

                Also, the fact he was on PPV against Canelo would help his case with Floyd's lack of options.

                He just has to hope Collazo doesn't win

                  Yeah that's true but either way it's not huge money even if he dominates him.

                  Oscar, Canelo and Cotto. They're huge money fights. Like I said we know he only fights above 147 so those kind of fights.

                  That said he might because like I also said, the options are so low.

                  I doubt Mayweather-Collazo happens even if he beats Khan. That's just a PPV disaster waiting to happen.

                    You mean 152 right?
                    He'll only fight washed up or blown up WW at 154.

                      Mayweather can hold off till December...

                      If Maidana manages to hurt his arms or body then Floyd won't mind the extra break.
