    if you're a matchmaker..pick Floyd's #50



    Canelo Alvarez 2
    Manny Pacquiao 2
    Miguel Cotto 2
    Danny Garcia/Keith Thurman winner
    Timothy Bradley
    Shawn Porter
    Errol Spence
    Erislandy Lara
    Jermall Charlo
    Gennady Golovkin (154)
    Adrien Broner
    Terence Crawford
    Amir Khan
    Kell Brook
    Demetrius Andrade

    ..last but not least

    Conor Mcgregor.

    who you going with? make the pick based on personal preference not strictly PPV numbers. and explain why.

    out of the three rematches possible, I'll prefer Miguel Cotto since he gave Floyd a better fight than Canelo and Manny combined.

    out of the guys at 154 I would love to see a chess match against Lara.

    between everybody else at 147, the winner of Garcia/Thurman makes sense. Floyd has a habit of facing guys coming off their biggest wins (Ortiz, Guerrero, Mosley, Maidana). and whoever wins this will be the best win of their career.

      Honestly? Pac again.

      Just to see Floyd beat him again, but far more comprehensively, leaving no room for slow motion or injury based excuses.

      But I would also love to see him fight one of the 147 kings, just to see whether or not youth and energy have/can bridge the gap between Floyd and the rest.

        Thurman Brook or Spence destroys this coward overrated cheating sissy.

        Instead of trying to play that "uncle" role to Spence why don't you fight him in the ring you b1tch he would destroy you.

            yeah quite possibly. Is a small middleweight though so i think he could get down to it with a big enough camp. It would still be a massive fight, cause even if ggg is at 80 percent, floyds giving up a lot of size. Mayweathers talked a lot of **** about him so as far as im concerned its time to back up his talk with his fists, ggg should be number 50.

              pac won that fight. he landed the much cleaner punches. the slow motion is for you since you thought floyd was landing clean or you missed pacs clean shots. maybe both. some close rounds like 7,8,9 but it was pac landed the much cleaner shots and the vast majority of his shots were power shots while the vast majority of floyds were jabs. i dont find it reasonable to give a round with almost equal lands to the guy who landed less power punches and punches that didnt land as clean or flush.

                The slow motion is there to justify why Pac fans/Floyd haters belief that Manny won. I watched the fight. I saw Floyd win, and more importantly for Floyd, the judges saw him win. I respect that you feel Manny won, but the reality is that its still an opinion.

                If Manny hadn't gone along with Bob's story about the injury, I'm pretty sure there would have been a rematch, and perhaps the rematch would have gone differently.

                As things stand, people like that Spoon dude will keep spamming inconsequential videos like the slow motion and "how the world saw May v Pac" and the like in order to continue to justify their stances.

                  If youre gonna beat the best, beat him in his weightclass

                  Other than GGG, I believe Manny is shot now......maybe Andrade, seems to have the tools
