      Cotto or Pac II

      But yes i do see him retiring after his last bout.
      Pacquiao can't do it in September.


      Cotto is with Jay-Z and Jay-Z won't accept Floyd or Haymon's legitimate demands on a rematch.

      Floyd vs Cotto is rightfully 90/10 with 90 going to Mayweather and just 10 going to Cotto. Mayweather won 10-2 in that fight as he did in Mayweather vs Pacquiao.


      No Pacquiao: Injury
      No Khan: September
      No Cotto: Jay-Z


      That Leaves Thurman, Garcia, Brook, GGG 154.5, and Andy Lee

          Oh shit yeah i forgot he signed with rocnation.

          I still can't see Thurman happening. I would like that fight but Garcia would be more likely but again, i can't see the Garcia camp wanting it, knowing they will probably lose and never having fought at 147 before.

          He aint fighting Golovkin either, that's a pipe dream right there but would love to be proved wrong.

            It could happen if Willie Monroe gives him some problems.

                If he fights Khan he will lose. He should fight THurman and Garcia and then retire.

                  Garcia will take the fight even though he knows he will lose, it's like winning the lotto and will be several times more in one night than he's made in his entire career.

                    Having a 50-0 record is huge for his legacy and a permanent marketing genius for the rest of his career outside in-ring boxing. He's smart, he's not gonna let that go because he doesn't want to get into the ring one more time after September.

                      say what you want about floyd but you have to admire his business mind,
                      he knows how to promote himself...
                      This seems most likely. But I believe him when he says he doesn't have the passion anymore. But if someone puts up Huge money for number 50 he'll prob do it
