    Defend or Vacate

    Pac needs to defend the 140lb title, the only real one he has, or vacate it already so others can fight for it.

      and Clottey sells out tickets?
      If Williams and Bradley were Top Rank fighters, Arum would make the right without hesitation.

        No arguments there, Tim Bradley has potential but isn't even nearly ready yet, not many people at WW are interested in Williams at the minute cause he doesn't sell well... so can't just blame Manny and nobody else.

        Cotto, a bad choice... just comes across as a easy way for him to claim an 8th title... Margarito, even with the plaster thing is much more prefered by everyone I think.

        I think if he was to fight Mosley, people might just think of it as fighting Floyds leftovers so it wont do him any justice.

        Hopefully, before any of this Roger doesn't get convicted and hopefully they all come to an agreement for Manny vs Floyd.

          Good point, didn't think about that. But I don't think Bradley is ready yet anyway and not many WW's are interested in Williams so we can't just point the finger at Manny.

            Williams needs to fight Clottey if he wants to fight at WW. I can recall a couple of times where Clottey called him out, but amazingly PWill's team says they can't get anyone at 147 to fight them.

              other then Mayweather, it is obvious that Pacman will only fight other Top Rank fighters

                  ARUM and FLOYD are too much about the MONEY.

                  It's a sad thing when ARUM holds PAC back from some GREAT FIGHTS like P.WILLIAMS or BRADLEY.. because of "money" issues.. because those would be great "STYLE" fights.. ARUM and FLOYD are too much about the money ..

                    well arum had already said this,and i'm glad he made it clear again,so maybe williams will rematch matinez,who can he fight now?.....and he's right about bradley,he doesn't bring enough fans,i know neither does clottey,but he already had faced margarito and cotto,judah,corrales,more known fighters,i'm curious for tonights fights,lets see how many fans pack the arena,and lets see how many are angulo fans and how many are bradley fans,i think most of the fans there are angulo supporters,

                      Floyd Fans have no room to talk about this one cause when it comes to "brings nothing to the table" talk, they are the main ones about it.
