    I agree with the lads, Saul Alvarez would be the natural choice but I think his inability to speak English may prove a big hindrance. When you're talking about poster boys for the sport they really need to speak English as the US audience will be the most important in terms of revenue and exposure.

    But being Mexican and holding such an impressive record at only 24 years of age serves him well. He should never have fought Mayweather Jr in my view, nor should Golovkin fight him. The undefeated record is extremely marketable.

    I'd like to throw Terence Crawford's name into the mix too. I am convinced that he will clean up the 140lb division in due course and he looks unbeatable too, can speak English, still has his 0 and with the right people around him he could take over from Mayweather Jr.

    I'm gonna say Terence Crawford is favourite, then Saul Alvarez and then Gennady Golovkin, in that order.

    The Mayweather's know that GGG is too big, even if he were to make the 154 pound limit, he would balloon up to at least 170 on fight night. A rematch with cinnamon would be a better fight. I may just have to bet my house on Mayweather, knowing my luck he'll somehow lose!

    If "GGG" beat Canelo, there s a big chance that he would be. Canelo is the main obstacle and I don t see Andre Ward to be in full stride in his career anytime soon.

    I could almost assure you that Floyd is not going to fight GGG. His Dad is already worried that soon someone will KO his son, if his son don't retire.

    I think Canelo is the main choice, but GGG is the future also.
