      my take is pac would run circles around nate, katsidis and juan and win late tko, they're really not quick on their feet.
      pac will outlast aging crafty joel and win by UD.
      against valero would be a vicious short fight, pac will get hit but will KO valero w/in 6.
      guzman will give pac problems but it wont be an exciting fight to watch. guzman will taste pac's punches early and so will run more than what he did w/ soto. UD for pac.
      jmm, if he can carry the weight to 135 is still one who'll give the most problems to pac.

      so i have pac winning on all because im a nuthugger.

        Hug away my friend but he will be in for the fight of his life during those 4 fights. Which I cant see him winning. He looked great against Diaz but Diaz is as slow as a Heavy weight and there to be hit.

        he cant handle Joels ring movement and slick boxing skills. He cant outbrawl Katsidis . Juan Diaz and Nate Cambell are both excellent all around fighters that are stronger than Manny and just as quick with more combos so I dont see him holding that title too long at 130.

          no i didnt say pac would have an easy time w/ any of them, i just predicted outcomes. it'll be war w/ most except guzman, who'll run more than in soto's fight. joel is old and would lose steam at the homestretch trying to match pac's ring movement. katsidis as u said is a brawler, similar in speed w/ ddiaz and pac would be a fool to brawl w/ him, he'd just step in and out. campbell is more stationary than joel and as old. he lasted w/ juandiaz since diaz doesn't move around much anyway too.

            I say he should fight only 2 guys in lightweight. The winner of Campbell-Guzman and the winner of Casa-Marquez. After that he should move to 140 and fight the winner of Hatton-Malignani. Then he should retire or he could also opt to unify the belts by fighting Torres and Bradley.

            No need to fight Valero as he has nothing to gain and everything to lose with that fight. Valero has not beaten any elite fighters. There is also no value of fighting the winner of Diaz-Katsidis because they are already beaten by Cambell and Casa.

            My dream fight is that after Manny beats the winner of Hatton-Malignani, he should move to welterweight and fight Cotto. Cotto is only 5'7" in height and Manny is 5'6" 1/2. Both of them have 67'' reach so it wouldn't be a disadvantage for Manny. If he do that it would make him the only 6 division champion in the entire history of boxing.

            As a summary, Manny has got 5 fights left in him...
            1. The winner of Cambel-Guzman - WBA,WB0,IBF,WBC CHAMPIONSHIP
            2. The winner of Casa-Marquez - WBA,WBO,IBF,WBC AND RING/Lineal
            3. The winner of Hatton-Malignani - IBO/IBF/RING/LINEAL
            4. The winner of Torres-Bradley - IBO/IBF/RING/LINEAL/WBC
            5. Miguel Cotto (should he beat margarito and dela hoya) - WBA/RING

              Manny didn't add to the lightweight clutter, he just replace one of the clutter by removing him on the list so the total clutter would still be the same.
