Every single individual listed besides Berto would have been adequate. Cotto would have been my second to least favorite.

My first choice would be a Cotto or Canelo rematch.
After that, Tim Bradley or Thurman.
Then Khan, Porter, Brook, or Garcia (each of whom, IMO, would have about the same chance of beating Floyd...none).

GGG for me. Only competitive fight.

Tony's spot on with my thinking

wow, berto actually got 192 votes, more than porter.
i'm sure if they let people place all the options in order instead of just a straight
vote, the list would look different.

190 of those were probably the two or three Floyd worshipers on this site multi voting

GGG would have been best and Mayweather did go to the trouble of saying he thought he could beat GGG. Though he obviously never intended to try and prove it, and who could blame him.

or one in particular we are both thinking about logging in under all his usernames

Khan for me.
Still would love to see Floyd at his advancing age deal with AK handspeed.

Bradley seemed the logical choice to me

Very similar to Froch who said that he is too strong for GGG and retired after that.

The list who would prefer to talk about fighting GGG than actually doing it is growing.

Maybe THAT list IS growing, but not nearly as fast as the list of guys GGG said he'd fight only to find excuses not to.

Will do, as soon as he finally decides to fight someone who actually has a legit chance to do so.

Like Beterbiev, Lebedev or Klitchko ?

No, you're right, that was one of the other GGG fanboys.

So, can you produce a list you mention here ?
