Share this story

A weekly boxing list compiled by Michael Rosenthal. This week: Fighters we’d like to see Floyd Mayweather Jr. face.

1. Manny Pacquiao – Let’s hope they can get past their differences and fight in the fall.
2. Shane Mosley – Mosley, who must beat Berto, is capable of beating Mayweather.
3. Paul Williams – Mayweather can make a huge statement by fighting Williams.
4. Andre Berto – Berto would be a excellent choice if he beats Mosley.
5. Sergio Martinez – Fighting this monster also would be a bold statement.
6. Timothy Bradley – Bradley is on a roll and has the skills to give Mayweather trouble.
7. Kermit Cintron – This one is acceptable because Cintron is big and powerful.
8. Nate Campbell – Campbell isn’t a great choice but might be smart enough to compete.
9. Devon Alexander – Alexander has fought at welterweight in the past.
10. Luis Collazo – Collazo is a tough, capable guy who will make any opponent work hard.
