    TBEs weakest acceptible oppoent to his hardest acceptble opp,is there middle ground??

    post what u think floyds most weakest(but still accepteble) fight he can take,,,

    then post his absolute hardest(but realistic) challegnge he can take,,

    then try to find some middle ground and make ur decison based upon that to who u think he should fighte for his very last fight on his showtime contract


    ----

    TBEs easyest opponent selcetion; Pacman rematch, khan, canelo rematch

    TBEs hardest opponnent selection; ggg at 154 or cw, cotto at full 160 mw

    TBEs middle ground selection; winner of Broner--Porter, Thyrman, Brooks, danny Swift

    My final pick; winner of broner-Porter

    You're not fooling anyone by saying a Cotto rematch is among the toughest fights for him! He already beat him, 8-4. It wouldn't be any different at a higher weight, they could fight at cruiserweight same result.

      Toughest realistic matchup would be cotto at 160 or canelo at 154/55

      Weakest but acceptable (or at least profitable cash grab)= broner or garcia


      Middle ground- thurman, Brook, khan...all for different reasons


      Dark horse- Bradley if he beats vargas for vacant WBO welter title

        How did Danny Garcia and Broner become middle ground? Getting gifts against Herrera and Peterson makes you an acceptable challenge? Broner is great, at 135.

        Khan is the weakest acceptable. Brook and Thruman are good too. Cotto at 160 would be reasonable. GGG at 154 would be very nice.

          Cotto, hardest??

          Danny Garica, Broner, middle ground? Easiest morelike

          The choice opponet i would like to see him fight and in this order to choose from: Khan, Pac, Brook, Thuram

          I discount GGG, cos it will never happen

              I disagree,,, cotto at 160 is a huge challenge for floyd and a much more dangerous fight than other possible opponents

                  this is true,,,cotto would probably come in BIG for that fight and meanwhile floyd sitting at 150 TOPS while cotto rehydrate to the 180ish,,its still a big challenge for floyd,,especially if cotto imposes his big size unlike the first fight whih he only use jabs to get in
