    Cotto is floyds biggest money maker point blank. I don't think even a pac rematch beats a cotto fight after the blue ball fight that was the first.
    Ggg will not pull anywhere near the views as cotto will. All other are literally second tier.
    My bet is cotto. Money, mw title and he's beat him before. No brainer.

      None of those opponents are hard for floyd to beat he needs to rematch cotto brings the most money then any fighter other then pac and busted floyd up 3 divisions at stake 5 titles that's a big fight nobody wants to see canelo do nothing for 12 rounds again. And the same for pac cotto comes to fight and will bring hell to floyd

        Khan has a nice reseme. Garcia was the last time he fought a top level guy though
        Fair enough I guess. I still think Khan is pretty skilled and might be able to do ok with floyd.

        I'm still praying for a long shot 154 matchup with GGG, though that's very unlikely to come to fruition for many reasons.

        Also lol @ everyone saying he doesn't need to fight anyone significant. Yes, we all get that he's done well and could retire today on what he's already accomplished. But he's gonna have one more fight, and it would be unfair to those who have been putting in work and deserve a chance at a big opportunity and payday for him to fight a bum. So when I say someone good should get the fight, I am not saying so because Floyd's legacy needs anything else (because it doesn't), rather I'm saying there are some fighters who deserve to get a shot.

        We're all naming the same short list of people (thurman, brook, khan being the frontrunners with broner/porter winner, GGG and danny garcia as long shots). Any pick for a fighter that isn't on the same playing field as the above names would be disappointing all those hoping to be picked for that fight.

        EDIT: Didn't mention Cotto but would be a big payday, so that could happen as well.

          Khan's okay, so is Thurman. Don't like Porter for him anymore, even if he beats Broner

            Porter has a small reach. Mayweather would pick him apart all night long

              He'll just spend the whole fight trying to lunge in and rough him up. I'm good...maybe stream....maybe

                    Thurman, Khan if he beats Algieri, Porter if he defeats Broner, Brook if he gets by what's his face, whoever, let's enjoy this fight, it's the last time we get to enjoy Floyd, so what he is a knob, he can fight and it's been a pleasure.

                      cotto rematch is the best option out there...imho cotto gave him a harder time than maidana did, plus adding another lineal title won't exactly hurt his legacy
