      Im sure Manny would love to fight Berto and have no problem w/ it, but guess who will shoot down that idea....
      I remember arum saying he has no issues with al haymon.

        Uh Manny hasn't fought Mosley yet. The comparison at the 147 ww max is:

        Zab, Brussels, Hatton, Mosley vs. Clottey.

        Now if you want to expand it we can. As to who they fought after they 1st fought at 147

        ODh (154), Hatton (147), Mosley (147), JMM (146) zab, baldo, brussels v. Clottey (147), Marg (151), Cotto (145), Hatton (140), ODH (147)

        ANy way you cut it floyd's is better.
        Mayweather has 7 fights since stepping up to 147 & Pacquiao only 5 so it's an offbase comparison at best. Also, Bruseles was @ 140 and Sharmba was his stepping stone @ 147.

        But here's your comparison:
        Mayweater vs. Pacquiao vs.
        Odh even Odh
        Hatton even Hatton
        Mosley lost to Cotto Cotto
        Judah lost to Clottey Clottey
        Baldo would lose to Margarito
        Jmm 0-1-1 to Pacman
        Sharmba insert Mosley after 5/7

        The way I cut it Pacman has the better competition

            Pac doesnt need the bankrupt wbc belt. Berto has never sold a PPV in his life. Pac should fight who brings in the most $$$$$$$$.

              I agree that Berto, my choice over JMM and Mosle after Margarito fight, to be Pac's next opponent. Maybe Team Pacquiao is just waiting for Berto to get more fan base to get good ppv sell.

                My dude, Pac's resume>>>Floyd's, even at WW which is sad. Has nothing to do with popularity. Cotto, Margarito, and Mosley are the premier welters of their era and in a few months, Manny will be able to say he crushed all of them, not 1, not 2, all 3 so that whole 'well, he fought the loser of...' won't fly because he has ALL of them on his record in 1 1/2 years and Floyd has only Mosley in his 6 year WW campaign so what the **** are you on? Manny's career is not even done and he'll have the chance to possibly add Berto and maybe even a record-breaking (his own) 5th lineal championship.

                So take it easy
                Are you bugging? Catchweights and fighters coming off bad performances,struggling or loses? Floyd only fought twice at WW and is still #1 in the division. Your seriously wilding! Floyd dominated 130, fought tougher comp at 135, more at 140 and became the Lineal champion at WW technically twice because of the Mosley win. Pac only fought guys that had name value. Cotto (catchweight), Clottey (coming off a lose). If Pac resume was better at WW than Floyd's, then Pac would have been #1. Right or wrong? Just off of the strength that Manny is fighting Mosley after Floyd did, closes the case.

                  Carlos Baldomir was the Lineal Champion, by beating the Undisputed
                  WW champion (Zab Judah at the time). Cotto, Clottey and Margarito
                  NEVER became Lineal champ. No way Pac's resume exceeds Floyd at
                  WW. Name wise, yeah but status wise, NOPE!

                    No he didn't, Chop chop was solid not bad for a 140 debut, Bruseles? C'mon...Gatti was worn and was carefully matched prior to Floyd.

                    Lets not exaggerate his run at 140.

                      Neither one of them were better than Cotto though at the time. Now the Mosley win yea for sure. The win against Judah TBH was just as good as the Clottey win...
