    Beating Cotto again does nothing for Pacquiao's legacy, he should fight Bradley

    Bob Arum should put the best interests of Pacquiao's career ahead of his own personal desire to make more money. He already has a hundred times more money than he'll ever need.

    Many other matchups would be more interesting than Pacquiao-Cotto II. it's a step backwards for Manny. Pacquiao-Margarito doesn't really thrill me either.

    But Pacquiao vs. Bradley would be highly-charged - a very entertaining fight we'd all remember! Both have amazing handspeed and great footwork.

    Bradley is already a proven elite fighter and will probably achieve more big things in his career, so he's a very good name for Pacquiao's legacy.

    C'mon Arum, stop being selfish and give us fans a fight we really want.

    Bradley will probably be protected from Manny.

      Totally disagree.

      Last night proved that Bradley is nothing but a featherfisted work in progress.

      Manny would obliterate him with ease and he would get nothing out of beating someone like Bradley.


      Margarito on the other hand has been a 3 time WW champ, one of the hardest WW's of all time, and a top 5 WW for 10 years.

      Cotto is also far more impressive than Bradley in every respect.

      Arum knows what the public wants.

          I agree he would beat Bradley but not with ease,and if he fights that cheating scum Margarito i will not watch or care about the results.

              Cotto would just be a waste of a fight cause i doubt people would want to watch that slaughter again. Williams & Bradley would be real good wins for him, & Marg would be the better fight if one had to pick between him & Cotto.

                  Beating Cotto is better than no fight at all and I'm not sure Bradley would be better for his legacy. I don't want to see either fight really BUT strictly for preparation and to shut some people up, Bradley would the better choice. Pac is comfortable at 147 and a fight with Bradley could help him prepare for a possible future fight with Mayweather (if that were to ever happen)
