Thats what they said about Margarito after all this boycott bullshiet.

Wanna bet it does more?

Good to see Pac will be back so soon but it sucks that it will probably be against Mosley.

Co-sign. I don't even see how it would be interesting. JMM3 or keep waiting for Mayweather to come out of his cave.

Regardless of who Pacman's next Opponent, Pacman will again showcase why he is the best P4P Boxer!

As Roy Jones Jr said:

“I mean, I gave up 27 pounds and beat [former heavyweight champ] John Ruiz, but I’m a bigger guy, too. For him [Pacquiao] to give up the kind of weight like he did to this kid Margarito and beat him like he did, it was absolutely magnificent.” http://blogs.bettor.com/Roy-Jones-Jr...e-world-a45052

And who is Roy Jones Jr?
Roy Jones, Jr. (born January 16, 1969, in Pensacola, Florida[1]) is an American boxer and as a professional he has captured numerous championships in the Middleweight, Super middleweight, Light heavyweight and Heavyweight divisions. He is the only boxer in history to start his career as a junior middleweight, and go on to win a heavyweight title. He is also noted for holding the WBC, WBA, IBF, IBO, NABF, WBF, and IBA light heavyweight championships (Undisputed Light Heavyweight Champion); a record seven belts at the same time.[2] Jones left his mark in history books when he captured the WBA heavyweight title, becoming the first former middleweight champion to win a Heavyweight title in 106 years. As one of the best pound for pound boxers of all time, Jones is also acknowledged as being one of the most physically gifted athletes in the history of the sport.

Umm...everyone on here pretty much knows who Roy Jones, Jr. is. Why did you post this?

I like Pacquiao's and Team attitude of always prioritizing a date/schedule over opponent.

If they were obsessed with getting just Floyd, he could wait around forever. And maybe that's what Floyd wants, that the whole thing is centered around him.

I'm a Floyd fan and would favor him to win as well as be rooting for him to win to get all of these fanboys who don't follow boxing off the bandwagon and back into obscurity.

But with that said, if he isn't gonna keep us boxing fans happy and have a regular schedule that a world class fighter should have, then I'm looking forward to Pacquiao doing his thing and scheduling venues for another fight this soon. If it's Mosley, then **** it, it is Mosley. I'll take a regular schedule of fights from P4P Kings, even if it is against someone like Mosley......then no schedule at all. I understood when Delahoya did this and became a part time fighter. He got Ko'd by Hopkins and just fought once a year to get a payday but this is unacceptable from a Top P4P fighter.

Where the *** is Floyd? When is he going to make headwaves and start making appearances on Boxing related venues, instead of some obscure Hip-Hop Radio show, talking about trivial ****.

It's a pity for us boxing fans but hey, we can take whoever is willing to fight. Obviously we wanted to see MAYWEATHER vs PACQUIAO...but for me, as long as Pacquiao is going to fight all of them, I can wait.

He is only one man.

I want Pacquiao to fight them all...yes, even Martinez at 154 for the last fight before retirement.

check your PMs mate

[bunnybounce]

check your pms mate

nice betting record, eh? :d

[indystress]

i feel it man its mosley i hope im wrong though..

if you take it from the standpoint of the money fight, it would be in the following order: mosley (about 1million+), berto (about 750,000 to 800,00 same numbers as the clottey fight), then marquez (first fight was as good as it gets, but rematch only brought in 400,000 buys...thats half what pac did with clottey in its first and only fight)

if its me, i'd rather see pac vs berto to see how pac do against a young slick AA fighter...then mosley...i wouldnt give marquez a shot for being desperate, being such a whiner, and a poor sport and show lack of respect to pacquiao.

i dont dig marquez's approach to trying to get a third fight with pac...besides, marquez needs to realize that theres other boxers besides him that wants a fight with pac

[loui_ludwig]

I don't care if Floyd outsellls Pac in PPV. I just want to see Pac vs Berto.

[indystress]

If Pacquiao plays his cards right maybe he could fight Zab Judah since he enjoys leftovers than fresh meat.

nice try, its like saying pac fought and brutalized guys (cotto and margarito) that floydie ducked ;o)

[JoeDaWg]

No talk of Sergio or Floyd....

Can't fight a dude who won't fight, floyds on "vacation" and there aint **** pac or anybody else can do about it.
Sergio is a middle weight and he's not coming down to 150 or less, it's a fantasy that will never happen.

OK first off first fight was called a draw with marquez winning more rounds than pacquiao.

Second, JMM got robbed in their second fight.

First off a judge made a score card error in that first fight, he even admitted it afterwards, that means pac won.

Second I can see how you'd feel that way about the second fight, I thought it was very close.

Bottom line that was a long time ago, marquez was in his prime at his prime weight, pac was a one handed fighter. All those things have changed, seriously I like marquez, he's not getting out of the 5th round no matter what weight it's at. He's just not on pacs level at this point.
