He should fight Martinez or a 140 fighterIf Pac can beat Cotto(age 29), Clottey(age 32), and Margarito(age 32) with the greatest of ease... then what 'prime' fighters is he going to step up to in the neighborhood of WW? 35 year old Sergio Martinez? Of course if Pac clowns him, suddenly he would've been too old and past his prime.
So tell me, since 33 year old Floyd (will be 34 in the Spring) is on vacation, who should Pac step up to at WW?
The reason Pac is looking so great is his speed.. the Margaritos/Clotteys/Cottos just can't handle it and don't have enough speed of there own to trouble him. A Khan/Bradley could cause him trouble.. i watched Marquez and Morales vs Pac the other day.. honest to god i didn't see much difference in speed.. pac was at a slight advantage but nothing major..
The guy to beat Pac is either Floyd/Martinez or a guy at 140Comment

Pacs cherry picks>>> Fraud's cherrypicks.
If Pac was fighting blown up bantamweights and 38 year old shot fighters on back to back training camps, *****'s would never stfu about it.Comment

I could see Martinez giving him trouble, but Pac wipes his a$$ with anyone at 140. Pac already gets the best of Khan with 16 oz gloves and headgear on, what do you think would happen with 8 oz Cleto Reyes and Manny doing his whole 'nothing personal, just doing my job' bit? Marquez and Morales are/were great featherweight fighters, every name being thrown at Manny is decent but not on that level and certainly not going to give Manny even the slightest trouble at 140-147 (barring Floyd, and Martinez at Middleweight).He should fight Martinez or a 140 fighter

Anyone with half a brain knows this.......There is certainly no love between Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank. Golden Boy's CEO, Richard Schaefer, took aim at Bob Arum, the CEO at Top Rank, by stating that Arum should take the blame for any perceived cherry picking of Manny Pacquiao's opponents.

But, we looking at it in hindsight if that is the case no?
Because going into it Oscar was a huge favorite against Pac. It was suppose a mismatch in Oscar favor going into it. Hindsight it was not the case.
And, in hindsight Martinez starched P-Will in 2 rounds. So how competitive was that? While Pac-Cotto was competitive for the first 4 or 5 rounds.
But, going into Martinez-Williams was suppose to be FOTY and very evenly and it didn't disappoint IMO.
The point is how are we gasping this? The perception going into the fight or looking back in hindsight?Last edited by jrosales13; 11-23-2010, 02:05 PM.Comment
