    Bom Arum: "could be KENDALL HOLT, TIMOTHY BRADLEY or LAMONT PETERSON against Pacman"

    BOB ARUM: "WE'LL LOOK FOR GUYS LIKE KENDALL HOLT, TIMOTHY BRADLEY OR LAMONT PETERSON"
    By Josh Jordon | December 10, 2008

    BOB ARUM:

    "It depends on whether we're going to do a real big mega-fight or just a real good fight. If we do a real good fight, we'll look for guys like Kendall Holt, Timothy Bradley or Lamont Peterson; guys like that. If we're going to do a mega-fight, there are two names that come to mind. One is Ricky Hatton; the other is Floyd Mayweather Jr. so we're going to see," stated Top Rank promoter Bob Arum as he talked about the future plans of Manny Pacquiao after his dominant win over Oscar De La Hoya. Check out what else he had to say about Pacquiao, the upcoming Margarito-Mosley clash and much more.

            I don't really see Bradley as deserving a shot a pacman just yet. I think he's being a little over rated to be fair. This may just be talk to try and big up a Hatton match, and make it clear there's other options so they could walk away from the bargaining table with Hatton. But most people want that fight next.

              maybe they figure it could be tuneup since those money fights will always be there? or to get edge in negotiations. they fought david diaz, so they obviously know when you move up don't go after the top guy. they are smart after the initial excitement they know beaing dlh don't mean your invincible

                  the problem is, these fights sound somewhat redundant, as the "mega-fights" are also just plain better fights

                    Those are some live opponents, especially Bradley.
