    What do you think of Pacquiao vs. Soto?

    Do you think it's a downgrade from the proposed Valero fight? The Valero fight can be considered a Superfight (if not a semi-superfight). A guy with an undefeated record and an underground following.

    Soto lost to Guzman and this fight doesn't do anything for Pac just like the Diaz fight except that it's worse since Soto doesn't have a title. Critics are already making excuses that Soto have to move up 5 lbs to lightweight to accomodate this fight. (sounds like an excuse to me)


    If there is no fight for Pacquiao....why not Urban Antillon? The guy who also smashed Manny's lil' brother Bobby Pacquiao to smithereens in 1 round.

    Soto is probably a much tougher fight for Pac than Valero. Looking forward to it!

      a better fight than valero and soto is mexican which makes this bout more lucrative
      soto got a great chance if this is at 130, if its at 135 i dont think its a fair matchup

          it's not a bad fight for pacman but I was hoping for Valero. I think Soto is a better challenge but Valero would have created more excitement and more of a buzz. Remember, Valero has received worldwide attention based on his 100% KO ratio.

              Its a good fight and am glad they are making this fight over a valero one. But it isnt a super fight though.

                valero outclassed.
                barring cuts,bet soto goes the distance.
                there's a chance soto could get lucky!
