Before you guys flame...let me speak my piece.
I truly hope Floyd vs Manny happens next fall. If not then that is pretty much a wrap for that fight. Manny will more than likely face Shane (don't wanna see this but you know d@mn well it's happening) and after that....there really isn't anyone left.
At that point Manny should face Martinez and win/lose call it quits. I know most think this is ridiculous but I feel this is no different than:
Robinson going up to face Maxim
Armstrong going for a MW title
and countless other examples in which a guy took a huge risk going up in weight. Win or lose Manny gets respect for trying the impossible. He would literally have zero risk and a lot to gain. No one ever criticize Duran for coming up short against Haglar, Robinson coming up short against Maxim, Armstrong for not winning the MW title and Ketchel falling to the much larger Johnson.
Just my take on things....as there really isn't any left for Manny if him and Floyd don't fight.
Pacquiao can come in at 145 and Martinez 166
