    Berto should be Pac's next fight

    PBF - forget about pac/floyd happening before June 2011. floyds got too much goin on right now, outside of boxing.

    JMM - he's with GBP which is an obstacle and let's be honest at 147-154(which is where pac is fighting with his two titles) JMM has pretty much no chance, just look at his WW fight with PBF. I know, JMM fought pac close twice before but that was years ago at a lighter weight. Pacs improved greatly since then and has grown into 147.

    Mosely - more popular and bigger draw then berto, JMM or martinez but is faded. business wise its the smartest fight that can made. i dont care to see it though simply becuz at this point i dont see mosely being able to be competitive. however, this is most likely the fight that gets made.

    martinez - i have no idea why his name still comes up. everyone including martinez himself says hes too big.

    alexander/bradley - lose/lose situation. nobody knows who they are and nobody would think they really have a chance to win.

    berto - young, athletic, undefeated champion. Yes, berto would be the underdog but who wouldnt be against pac? Yes, hes not much of a draw but its a sellable fight. i would much rather see pac fight berto then anyone else being mentioned as possible opponents.

    Interesting points..but I do believe Marquez will still give pacquiao trouble any weight...his style just clashes with manny and his timing is excellent, n in my book great timing beats great speed..as with timing you get accuracy..

    Also even if they agree 147 pac will prob b under and Marquez won't need to come too far from 135..

    But the main reason I wanna see this is to see how much better pacquiao does n if he can shut Marquez up once n for all!

    P.s. Berto shud fight Mosley next

        There's no reason why Pacquiao shouldn't fight Martinez at 154lbs.

          its a mismatch. SM kills pac, even pwill would beat pac. they are just too big. its pointless anyways, arum and roach arent gonna make that fight, lets move on to fights that can be made

            i believe JMM deserves a 3rd match with pac but i think berto has a much better chance of beating pac.

              I don't agree with that at all. I think it's a pick 'em and definitely holds more sporting value than Pacquiao versus the likes of "Grandpa" Mosley and Andre Berto.

              Sadly I do agree with this though. Pac and Floyd will never step in the ring with an opponent as dangerous as Martinez at this stage of their respective careers.

                Of the remaining choices I want Marquez III at 140lbs or Berto, I guess, although I think Pacquiao probably demolishes both.

                  Berto is the easiest of all the opponents and will draw the least

                    they are sayin that pac is fighting at 147 next. you still wanna see JMM/pac III at 147? wouldnt you rather see pac fight berto at 147 in a title unification?
