Arum Names 3 Possible Opponents For Pacquiao After Margarito

[Mr. Mark]

i dont want to see Manny retire. i wana see him keep on fighting. maybe 2 more fights. i dont see why Manny has to fight Floyd or retire. best fighters dont always fight the best or doesnt need to fight all best. back in the day they fought the same boxers 3,4,5 times but nobody cares. they just wanted to see a good fight. i want to see the best fighter in this era to keep on fighting for another year.

With all due respect, I strongly disagree with you..

Manny's my favorite fighter of today, but he needs to prove himself against more elite contenders.

Can you imagine how much attention a Pac-Williams fight would get over every other fight that Manny's ever been in? Not only would it have a classical "David v.s. Goliath" theme, but it would also possess the potential to pass-on as one of the Greatest fights in all of Boxing History.

As a Filipino myself, I'd want Manny to make History in a fashion that's not only honorable, but memorable.

u bring up the article about paulie that comes from some random tabloid in the uk but u ignore an reported that directly quotes arum on manny next opponenets??? riiiiite....just give up. your logic is really screwed.

ok,what makes you so sure paulie will not be floyd's next opponent?.....

uhhh mebbe because paulie is scheduled to fight on the undercard of pascal vs. hopkins in december, how the hell is he gonna fight floyd in February??? or maybe because theres no way in hell floyd fights a guy like paulie who makes him no money??? should i really go on???

against elite fighters? there is no elite fighters in Manny's division except Floyd. I dont think Manny would stay longer in jr middleweight. he cant even make 150 lbs. asking him to fight Williams and Martinez would be too much in 154 lbs and up. Mosley, Cotto, Floyd who were elite boxers in 147 lbs didnt even want to mention Williams name. Fighting Williams in 147 lbs is irrelevant because Paul would be weight drained.

Manny already made history. asking for more would be unfair. The best Asian fighter, Fighter of the Decade, 3x Fighter of the Year and a 7 time Division Champion is already impossible feat. 7 Division champion was impossible until Manny did it.

If Marquez wins they have to do this fight. It's the only one that makes sense. Unless they fight Williams or Martinez.

First-off, I'm not necessarily referring to the most elite contenders at Manny's "current" division, I'm talking more in terms of Manny contending with "whomever" he can at a weight division (preferably by a sanctioned body) in which he can compete with the best-whether or not it means that Manny should drop down in weight and contend with the best at 140, or contend with Floyd and/ or Williams at 150 and up. It doesn't really matter..

As a boxing fan, I just want to see the best compete with the best.

But you're right about one thing, Manny's paid his dues and he's defeated everyone that's ever been put in-front of him.

Mannys legacy has been cemented in that respect (as one of the Greatest Boxers of All-Time), but it would help boxing a lot more if he could do everything within his reach to take-on the very best of who's currently "available" in the sport.
