I'm one of the biggest Pacquiao fans on this site and I want to see this fight happen.

I also know other Pacquiao fans who want to see it happen as well.

IMO most Pacquiao fans are just firing back because people are saying Manny is ducking Sergio.

Would I like to see it happen. Absolutely. Is Manny obligated to face him....by no means.

He's not obligated to face anyone. However, when you call yourself the champion of a division, you are meant to fight the best in the division. As Martinez is still more than willing to fight at the division in which he was the best fighter of recent and in which Pac now calls himself the champion of, then in a way, he is obligated to fight him.

Pacquiao weights at 144-145 pounds and Cotto according to Steward was at 150 one week before the Foreman fight and they had him eat just so he could gain 3 pounds before the fight.



Martinez is a natural 160 pound fighter.

But Martinez fought almost his entire career at 154. Pac is supposed to be the JMW champ and so is Cotto so I don't really see an issue with it.

Pac is the biggest money fight for anyone, Martinez deserves the big money opportunity. It won't ever happen though.....
