    Surprised there is only one vote for Berto. Here's his tweet saying he fancies a fight with Pac:

    "go ahead and throw my name in the hat then. I'll give the people what they want to see pay per view blockbuster LETS GO "

    And a link to a story on that:

      Manny is at the tail end of his career. Besides fighting Floyd, he may be looking for accomplishments that would carry more weight for his legacy. One way is to get the 154 title.

      From your list, the only ones that can fight for this 154 title would be Margo and Cotto.

      This may not make sense to everyone but it would to Manny since that would give him 8 titles. For me, that is 8 good reasons why he will fight one of those two.

      If he gets his 8th title, he will then try again to get a deal with Floyd. If that doesn't work out again, then those other guys on the list become more of a possibility. Maybe one would then add a Martinez in the mix as well.

          Ill be somwhat satisfied w/ that fight, But Mr. Arum claims all the up and comers are trying to freeload off of Manny's success when that's were all the competition for Manny is at.

            I wish the promoters would just die of bringing "business sense" into a competitive sport.

            Being shrewd does not make for a good fight. Especially towards the end of a careers.

            Who needs to be shrewd?

                Would take him above Floyd on WW rankings.

                  My vote is an unpopular one but Andre Berto. For one, it would be a good fight, but two I think unifying belts at 147 is more impressive than winning a 154 pound belt against a guy he already beat or a vacant belt which really has no business being on the table.

                    I would love to see him embarass P. Will to be honest with you.

                    Another fight that I'd like to see is Manny vs Paulie. That would be epic.

                      I think Zab should be generous and give this kid a shot at him.
