    I honestly forgot about Danny, but from the looks of it Danny wants to keep his 0 and would rather no fight Floyd. He's making millions regardless if he fights Floyd or not.
    According to Khan he can now fight in September

    Also Hunter said he spoke to someone on the inside and believes the fight will be pushed to October/November

    Make of that what you want

    Its either Khan or Danny

      Yeah, well look at anyone who chooses to "box" Danny Garcia. He looks as lost as Tito did when Hopkins was going in on that ass.

          I probably left out the most important fact. Thurman is actually DESERVING, like all of Floyd's prior opponents.

          He's no LWW moving up in weight.

          He's not a drained SWW forced to come down in weight. He's a BIG Welterweight with SKILL and POWER.

          He's undefeated with a pretty solid streak against some tough WW's. No real "big names" on his resume, but he's still battle tested. And last but not least he hold's a couple of belts.
          So what kind of shot do you honestly give him to win? I don't give him much.

He's definitely got some boxing skill, and he can actually jab. To top things off, everything he throws with comes with power behind it. He can fight as the aggressor but he's also shown that he's able to dictate the pace on the back foot too. Even if it's not as great as other counter punchers. But we do have to remember he's a boxer-puncher so that's expected.
            On top of things he caught two black eyes and a rahman for like 2 months from of a blown up lightweight in guerrero

              Well firstly, I want to congratulate you for not offing yourself over #48 getting blown to bits.

              And secondly, I don't give ANY WW much of a chance to beat Floyd. However, when broken down extensively, I feel that Thurman has the best chance to put up a decent fight against the undefeated maestro of boxing.

                It'll be Danny or Khan. Thurman won't be next.

                    It pains me to say this because the guy drives me nuts, but I think Amir Khan poses the biggest threat to Floyd. He might be the only welterweight who poses any threat, honestly. I would still favor Floyd, but I have a hard time imagining how that fight would play out in my head. Amir's hand speed and combinations, not to mention his new Virgil Hunter-approved clinching habit, make him a very frustrating opponent.

                      So who do you suggest he fight? Garcia, who can't even find his footing when he fights a boxer who moves?
