    Are you saying Spinks, Karmazin, and Mayorga were better?

            Even if Martinez didn't vacate that belt, Arum would say he doesn't bring enough money in. This is an easy title for Pac. He's going to KO Margarito.

                1) Main reason is that Martinez moved on to 160 and did not retain his 154 belt. There would be no point in fighting him if Manny doesn't get rewarded with a belt especially when he can fight another guy (Margo) for a belt.


                2) Margo is an Arum guy and by fighting Margo, he can hit 2 birds with one stone. If everything turns out right, Margo looks good enough to come back from the dead and Manny gets himself a title.

                3) You must remember that Manny is going for the title. His opponent doesn't necessarily need to be the best at 154. He can leave that option for another day.

                    Martinez should fight P.Williams.

                    Beat him then take on Floyd (if floyd dares) or Manny (if manny dares.)

                      Floyd should be fighting Sergio. Why does Pac have to test the water for Floyd? Floyd needs to do something special and he hasnt done anything specail since his comeback.

                      Hes got to do something people think Pac might not be able to do first..
