    Floyd Mayweather's #50

    Assuming he comes back for a 50th fight (which he will, and spare me the boring responses of 'He isn't coming back" if you disagree), who do think he will fight? Who do you want him to fight? Pacquiao? Khan (if he pulls out a huge upset over Canelo)? GGG? Canelo?

    Who cares? He shouldn't have ripped off the fans in the Pac fight and then pretend to retire just to try to rip the fans off again with that Berto exhibition bout.

    Stay retired, you already ruined the sport enough.

      ^That doesn't answer the question lol.

      And it was Pacquiao's fault that the fight wasn't a spectacle. Everyone knows how Mayweather fights, the hype of the fight relied on the effectiveness of Manny to force may out of his comfort zone and force him to engage with him in order to win. That didn't happen.

            If he was to comeback, im guessing it will be Canelo rematch in September or May next year (if Canelo beats GGG) for middleweight title at 155. GGG would be a huge risk for Floyd and the Pacquiao rematch would be meh same thing as last time.

                I like GGG, but I don't think it would be as huge of a risk as others do. The way people build him up, you'd think he was the second coming of Mike Tyson. Not that 34-0 with 31 KO's is anything to dismiss, but still. Mayweather's superior speed and reflexes combined with his overall defensive wizardry would almost certainly take him to a Unanimous Decision on that one.

                  He's not coming back(Floyd is about to turn 39, he's been out of things since September, and the Berto fight was the first time, that I can point to, where Floyd didn't look razor sharp in dispatching an opponent.

                  Beyond that, there's not another fight that you can point to, on planet Earth, that would put $300m into Floyd's pocket (his likely take on the Pacquiao fight, after counting his share on the PPV, event sponsors, his share off of the tickets, the international money, and other revenues).

                  If you can think of such a fight, you've got your 50th.
