    If Pacquiao dares, he could fight Gabriel Campillo for the 175 lb WBA light heavyweight title.
    Exactly. Also Mayweather versus Mathew Hatton would never come off - that's just an idiotic rumour started by rabid *******s.

        Marquez, Diaz, DLH, Hatton, Cotto.

        I think he deserves an easier fight. Then re-negotiate with Mayweather for the end of the year.

          Manny is fighting at Jr middleweight. It would almost be the equivalent of Floyd fighting at middleweight considering how long he's been at 147.

          But instead floyd is going at Malignaggi @ jr welterweight, or even better, matthew hatton. Who's cherrypicking

              I hate to say it but:

              Mayweather > Pac

              We have no clear evidence of Mayweather ever actually ducking someone. He always provides reasons (that the amount of money he will receive is not as much as he would get for the mega-fights). He took on an undefeated, supreme Hatton and De La Hoya. And then he agreed to fight Manny Pacquiao when he was offered more money.

              Pacquiao, on the other hand, is ducking Paul Williams and Mosley. He would have an easy fight with Martinez, who, despite being a strong fighter, was able to challenge Williams only because of his great ability to get inside and fight well there (where Williams is simply terrible and Pacquiao is exceptional). Although he is clearly ducking them, there is justification. After all, Paul Williams (being the freakshow that he is) has simply too long a reach for a fight with Pacquiao to be a fair (Williams has an 18-inch reach advantage). Mosley is also generally much larger than Pacquiao.

                To be honest i dont think fighting Foreman is cherry picking. It would be making history, moving up in weight yet again.
                Its better than Mayweather fighting Malignaggi thats for sure.

                    That's an awful post. Perhaps the worst I have ever seen.

                      None at all. The only reason it is even being considered is that Arum and Roach are looking to carry the Pac momentum with an easy UD over the tough, but ultimately inexperienced and limited newly crowned paper belt holder Foreman.

                      This is TRUE CHERRYPICKING. I can't even believe this fight is being considered.

                      I mean who are they kidding? Sure, beating Cotto at 145 is a great win but you can't just avoid everyone and claim greatness. If you are going to fight at 154 where is Williams, where is Clottey, where is Mosely, where is Martinez? The very idea of cherry picking Foreman and clearly DUCKING Martinez and Williams in the 154 division is a joke. An absolutely sickening joke.

                      I hate to say it but:

                      Pac = Mayweather. Face it.

                      (Also, Angulo and Sergei would be getting ducked)
                      hell no, don't even dare compare Pac's resume to Floyd's LOL....
