    TBF Cotto is the only real option for Floyd

    They could do it at middleweight, say Cotto is a new fighter at 160 and under roach etc

    Cotto always sells so it's probably the best money fight

    Personally I don't think it'd be any different than the first but Floyd aint gonna want peanuts fights so this is about all thats left on the table imo

    true but cotto is contractually bound to HBO to fight canelo. On the BET ward event they asked cotto about the fight and he said he will be ready.

      ... Not that sure -- as long as Cotto and Canelo didn't sign that paper with Golovkin...
      ... Floyd is able to repeat his last 'experience" -- fight Cotto on Sho and HBO...

        Get real, Cotto ain't getting his azz back into the gym just after fighting Geale for September, there's not enough time for rest+training for Sept which is exactly why Oscar has been suggesting November dates for Canelo-Cotto.

            Brook isn't a realistic option right now (just like Cotto) since Brook-Rios is gonna get made once Brook stops Floyding about Rios' gloves.

                  Cotto and GGG excluded no opponent would sell any better than Lara... And Lara is a nightmare for Floyd -- in terms of style and reach...
