    So yeah, extremely unlikely fight...I think Floyd will fight Garcia next personally.
    LMAO.....Garcia? Please no, that would be a 12-0 drumming with Garcia's dad providing the sole entertainment of the evening. How would Hymen not give Garcia the decision though? If it were Floyd's final career fight, he [Hymen] just might see fit to have Danny get that "Garcia decision". How crazy would that be, get ripped off in the final fight of your career because you will no longer be bringing money in the door?

      Still think he should fight Cotto again though. I don't think their are any more welterweight fights that would really do anything for him at this point. Sure Khan stylistically could pose some problems but he's hardly earned a shot. Their really is nobody who he clearly needs to fight next. Everybody is still a fight or 2 away.

      Cotto is the perfect going away fight to try for that middleweight belt.
      Unless there's a plot twist and Geale snatches it from Cotto.

        We saw him against a small welter last weekend, the difference was clearly visible, just as it was against another small welter in Marquez and another small welter in Hatton.
        How the hell does that make him a small Light Middleweight?
        150 lbs isn't even the full Light MW limit.

        150 lbs is clearly a small WW. Name another WW that weighs that on fight night other than Pac and Marquez.

        Golovkins 170 on fight night does that make him a small LHW in your view?

          If you fight at LMW, what would you call him other than a small light-middle weight? it makes no sense to call him anything else.

          If Floyd is supposedly a small welter, what are Pacquiao and Marquez, "tiny welters"? because he's visibly bigger than both, he's not in their bracket, he's bigger.

            He doesn't fight on LMW.

            Yeah, he's fough there 3 times for big money whilst being clearly tiny for the weight. Can't even weigh the full limit. But that doesn't change the fact he's a welterweight.

            Pacquaio has fought at LMW so why isn't he a small LMW?

            Pacquaio and Marquez are small WW's also. They both weigh around the same as Floyd in the ring. Pacquaio said to Max Kellerman that Floyd isn't bigger than him.

            Floyd is bigger than him, but barely.

              According to Floyd, Pac weighed more than him on fightnight. . . Floyd said he weighed 149, and Pac was 151(2)

              Weather you wanna believe a word that comes out of Floyd's mouth is upto you.

                p-acquiao is naturally a 135-140 lber at this point. anybody who thinks they're the same size needs to watch him fight floyd again. that's what it looks like when a natural welterweight fights a dude who had a hall of fame career as a FW.

                marquez got on freaking PEDS. let's be realistic. dude was chubby as hell against floyd mayweather. then, he hooks up with a known steroid guru, and goes through puberty again in his late 30's. acne, huge gains in muscle and even punching power. just like puberty. he is fooling NOBODY.

                    marquez and pacquiao likely both got on PEDS to make it to welterweight. i have zero doubts about marquez' ped use. memo heredia. puberty at 40 years old. enough said.

                    saying that floyd is "barely" bigger than manny and marquez is just ridiculous. we got a chance to see them fight last weekend, ffs.

                      Haha bro I am not supporting a possible Garcia fight! I don't want to see that, at all. Might as well hand Floyd a W-UD12 right now. I see what you mean about Haymon being in a tight position in regards to that fight but still, I think it could happen.

                      There are possible guys he could fight but I do not see it for a lot of them. Despite him dropping his titles, guys like GGG and Lara are virtually out of the question. Khan is touch and go, not sure that will ever happen. Bradley is a fight nobody really wants to see. He has changed his mind on a Pacquiao rematch/that surgery delays it too much. I am not sure Brook is being considered as Floyd doesn't care about taking his belt and unifying seeing as he is dropping them. Cotto rematch is not really gonna get people too excited either.

                      So thinking about it, if Floyd is not too bothered about going above 147 OR unifying any titles then I feel as though Garcia is very possible. Personally I would like to see Floyd keep his belts, unify them and then retire the undefeated, undisputed, unified champion of the world. That seems more legendary than vacating everything and then just fighting someone for the sake of fulfilling a contract.
