i wouldnt go so far as to say manny is using his superstar status to cherrypick. If there was an official poll of the top 3 things pacquiao fans would like to see him do....it would be:
1. fight mayweather
2. title in an 8th weight division
3. marquez trilogy.
Now i agree with your reasoning behind margarito not being ranked and im against the catchweight as well but from a business standpoint the only title holder at 154 that would bring in the kind of money arum and pacquiao wanna make would be cotto...and the demand for that fight simply isnt there. And it's undeniable that cheating scandal and all...margarito is still a bigger draw than williams or bundrage or cintron.
Paq is my favorite fighter, and those three things are exactly what I want to see.
