      When asked what come next for Manny, especially if Mayweather doesn't accept the challenge, Roach said the team would consider 160 pounds. "Paul Williams, the winner of that fight, is that too big for us? I thought this is too big for us at one point, 160 might be next, maybe we will go to nine world titles. But let's take care of Margarito first."

      If Manny gets Money, Freddie said, he'd like to see him win, and call it a day, the proverbial icing on the cake. And just like the fighter, he answered the same batch of questions he's been hearing day after day, hour after hour, patient as a saint.

      That's ****ing crazy talk. Pac can hardly make 150- and that's pushing it.

              Ok, so that means that if Pacquiao takes on the winner of Williams-Martinez II and wins he'll be the bonafide, legit, undisputed lineal Middleweight Champion, right?

              Of course, you'll have new excuses for why he isn't and why it's a paper championship

                Roach was just talking ****. And if Manny ever does, he'll weigh in at 151 max.

                  Doubt he would even weigh that much, probably a CW of 155-157 and he'd come in at 147-148 at the weigh-in and 150ish on fight night.

                    Pacquiao can't even make welterweight, but I guess it's easy when you drain your opponents and fight for vacant belts at catchweights
