i see what you're saying but to be honest with you a high value fight for juan against someone like valero or guzman is too dangerous. it could hurt the payday. a manny lost at 135 wouldn't hurt the payday but a juan manuel lost would.
besides high risk fights for manny are more doable because even guys that are not big names still make manny a lot of money. juan on the other hand can't make big money aside from manny. so the safe bet would be to take an easier course and ensure the money for the rubber match is still there. a loss to diaz or another 135-pounder by manny and there's still big bucks for the rubber match. a loss by juan to guzman or valero and who's to say a guzman-pacquiao or valero-pacquiao won't be worth more for top rank?
