      Arum already has Pac's schedule planned out; at least from November of this year till May of 2012. The Marquez fight WILL happen in November and it will be at the WW division. Pac said he can easily make 143, but he wants every concievable advantage in this fight. TR saw what Mayweather did to Marquez so they will follow suit. The silly part is they will try to justify why the move was made. And mark my words, the media won't bring the difference in weight. They will talk about everything but that. Next up will be Cotto if he gets past Magrs in Sept. This may sound strange, but if Khan and Bradley fights, it's a win-win situation for Pac. Why? He will never fight Khan. And if Bradley looses he will DEFINITELY be in the running to fight Pac. and If Bradley wins, Arum will side step him and have Pac fight another Top Rank tomato can. I think Berto is in the running also.

      When a fighter comes off a lose, they basically have forfieted thier bargining power at the table. Thats why you see Pac fighting those who have come off a loss. What can they demand? Not a dog gone thing. Mayweather hasn't lost yet and is a bigger draw than Pac (especially against common opponents). The Mosley fight had better do better than 1.4 million buys or else.

        Still hoping Pac would do it at 135 where Marquez is the lineal title holder.

          I just hope its gonna be at 140 or 135 (keep dreamin right? LOL) and not 147. Anyways if it is like people say about Pac, that he could make 140 easily, then why not just fight at 147 instead? He will walk in the ring at the same weight anyways. Floyd fighting JMM at 147 was different, because Floyd is a legit WW
          Pac is a small welter but he s still a welter. Here s no reason for him to chase jmm anywhere. Jmm is begging for this fight and frankly its gonna be a waste of time. Jmm gets destroyed at 140 and above by most fighters much less a beast like pac. With ortiz out there, bradley floating around, there really is zero reason to have this fight except to shut jmm up for good.

Who is to say that Arum doesn't lure Juan in to signing with TR with a promise of a third fight with Pacquiao, and then leaves him sitting on a shelf while Pac goes off fighting other fighters that "make more sense" to Bob at the moment. I mean, unlessn the contract gives TR a specific time frame he has to actually make that fight happen, I could see Bob saying to Juan "Look, Pacs tied up fighting other fights but you could fight so and so until Pac is ready" (eehhmm, under Top Rank of course). "Oh yea and we need to build up the fight and get you used to a higher weight class and and and and and"

          Don't trust him Juan.... It's a deal with the devil (for you).
          So true

              Isn't that the whole point of boxing? Fighter A is coming off a win. Fighter B wants a rematch.

              Fighter A gets the leverage in the negotiations.

              Simple logic. And no biased or uninformed opinions on my part

                  Pac-Bradley (if Bradley beats Khan) would be epic and would add to Pac's legacy, unlike beating an old JMM way above his preffered weight class.
                  *****s didn't say that when Pacquiao chose Mosley.....And Marquez was 39 years old back then, and he still is 39 years old now !! So, which one is it ??

                  But i agree, Pacquiao vs Bradley would be great !!

                      rematch with manny would make him more than a rematch with floyd,

                      especially because floyd is retired.
