Well Arum and Roach both know if Manny fights Cotto and Mosley at 147 they will come in around or over 160 fight night, Manny won't be able to stay away from them for long and he WILL get hurt by the big guys, which is why I say its bull**** for WWs to be calling out Manny instead of fighting each other.

Isn't Arum/Roach the one that's "calling out" Cotto?

Co-sign homey.

I agree with the part that Mosley or Cotto shouldn't move down to fight Pacman. Because they aren't the ones who are trying to prove anything.

Credit to Manny if he can step up to 147 and beat either of those.

What do you mean they aren't the ones trying to prove anything? Who is #1 pound 4 pound in the world right now? Pac or cotto/shane/etc.? Pac doesn't have to go up, like I said he's not obligated to do go further up in weight, he's the hot commodity right now not cotto or shane.

Arum, Roach, and Pacquiao are the Real Boxing Frauds

The boxing world has been treated to some great fights from the pound for pound kings in recent years.

Manny Pacquiao is the current king, but one has to wonder if he is being helped by some factors too.

One thing is that Pacquiao has vacated the 135lb division, and settles at 140 where he has dethroned the 140 Ricky Hatton in spectacular fashion, and credit to him for that.

The only thing that may bother a boxing fan is that, his team that includes Bob Arum and trainer Freddie Roach, seem to want to protect their most prized asset and milk him dry for all the dollars they can get from him.

One smart thing they are doing, is keeping pacquiao at 140 where there's nobody worth fighting after beating Hatton.Staying at this division keeps him at arms reach of the 147 superstars and anyone below that will have to step up to fight Pacquiao.

the best boxer in the world will require another good challenger to starve and shrink himself to fight him! Now that is what i call FRAUD. Why? Because pacquiao has fought and won at the 147 division before (with a drained fighter).

Roach and Arum must have noticed the magic in getting fighters to drain themselves before they face Pacquiao, after the de La Hoya fight. Now they are demanding that Mosely should get down to 142lb and Cotto to 140lbs to fight Pacquiao. Now this is ridiculous!

One thing i will always credit Mayweather for, is that, whenever he was challenging a good boxer, he never tried to trick that guy into a catchweight scenarion to give himself an advantage over him.

Roach has been reluctant to make Pacquiao face Mayweather after Mayweather is done with Marquez, because he knows that Mayweather took a good choice for his return to the ring.

You see, Mayweather knows that fighting Pacquiao, would mean, dropping some weight to a catch-weight. If he had come and faced a 147lb boxer, he would have fought it a different experience fighting at 143 or 142 as the Pacquiao camp would dictate.

Roach got all worked up after Mayweather announced that he will fight marquez because, that in itself is a declaration by Mayweather that he is willing to fight Pacquiao at a catch-weight.

So now, Roach and arum are planning to fight someone else who does not pose a serious threat. They say that they want someone who comes forward, because most of those who come forward always leave their chins to be hit, like Hatton.

It will not be easy to see a Pacquiao-marquezIII bout, or Mayweather-Paquiao or Clottey-Pacquiao. Arum is busy organizing to face Cotto, but everybody knows that Clottey is a tough fight for him and Clottey could win. The only thing is that, Roach and Arum DO NOT mention Clottey's name because the guy's defence is probably second to Mayweather's in the 147 division.

One thing i would tell the Pacquiao camp is: Keep your man at 140 and fight 140lb fighters, if you want to fight 147 lb fighters, then step up in weight and challenge them. The issue of catch-weights is a FRAUD!

I dont know man he brings up some great points. If you want bigger money get up to the bigger fighters at WW. It makes complete sense. But the FRAUD part? If anyone in boxing is the real deal its Pacquiao, he has no right to call him fraud for moving up so many weight classes to challenge bigger stronger fighters.

Mayweather on the other hand can be given such a title due to the fact Pacquiao has already beaten his two biggest wins of his career and did it better faster and more spectacular. I love how things have been unfolding in boxing lately. 2009 is a beast !

Seems like it, Manny has said he will fight whom ever they put in front of him.

I read the article, it says Pacman wants to fight Cotto/Mosley. Whether it's true or not, if he wants to fight either of them he should move up.

cuz every top ww's know!! fighting manny is a big money maker!!

I know, but why tarnish your legacy by choosing the bigger payday against the smaller guy then a decent/good payday against a guy as big as you.
