" I Shall Return ! "

[THRILLAinmanila]

In a show of confidence, Manny Pacquiao in one of the Philippines' major dailies today said that he is staying at 130 and looks forward to battling MAB and Morales again in the superfeatherweight division. Uttering "I Shall Return !", the words of the famous Gen. Douglas MacArthur who said the words in World War II when the Americans faced a temporary setback from the Japanese invaders in the Philippines, he said he is charging all the lessons he learned from the Morales loss and vowed to come back a stronger fighter in his next outings against the current Mexican P4P powers.

I pick Barrera in a rematch

[bigsmoothh]

i also think barrera will beat pac on the rematch and then erik will beat pacagain also.

Pac didn't train hard for any fight up to this point. I think that this loss will either bring his committment to a new level or destroy his confidence. We will have to wait and see what happens.

I still would pic Pac in a rematch againt Barrera.

Its time for Pac to show what he's made of inside.
MAB was able to return with a veangeance after his loss to Pac,
and now Erik has been able to do it after his loss to MAB.
This is where we separate the men from the boys.

Pac should first fight Marquez and avenge that loss first, even though the fight was a draw, i think he lost it....once he is through Marquez then he should think about MAB or morales.

JMM is another tough cookie because his style is difficult for Pac. This would be another good option for him though...

I'd like to see Pac-man come back strong, but only time will tell. I think if he learns a little bit more self-control he could be even more of a force to be reckoned with. The haters do offer one stable argument -- Pacman is quite a bit one-sided. Perhaps that's what he'll train to improve.

I'm looking forward to seeing him take on the three top featherweights, though.

id say pac repeats his performance against mab, styles make fights

manny also said in the Philippine daily that he is going to stay in the super featherweight division, meaning there will be no marquez rematch for the year... his first loss in quite a number of years came at 130, so i guess he wants to redeem himself that he can also win at the weight class...
