    If no Mayweather, Pacquiao should challenge Martinez.

    Honestly it seems Manny isn't serious anymore, like he knows he is too good and winning wide. He doesn't need money or is hungry to win like how he use to.

    Manny likes it when he is the under dog, when people think Oh can he deal with a new weight? Oh can he deal with the npower, oh the height etc...

    If Mayweather doesn't come out and say anything, then Pac should fight Martinez, even in a lost, he gets respect, and I think even *****'s would agree.

    Even Arum must be thinking, damn there really isn't anything exciting left, even we all know that Mayweather is very defensive and the fight won't be that good. When Oscar put it on Floyd, he went on the back foot to utbox Oscar, and that could happen to Manny for sure, or Manny could edge out each round if Mayweather is too laid back.

    I assume it is the hunger rather than age, even though smaller guys start to slow down at 30.

    He's been fighting no hopers ever since beating Cotto. If he does great PPVs from last night against a no hoper, what incentive would he have to take on an actual challenge like Martnez?

        Arum will never take that risk with his cash cow.

            Martinez is not out of the question and is beatable.

            Martinez does some things well, but also some things badly. Size will not be the issue, but the style and speed.

            Now, Pac could in theory win a UD.

              Pac aint fighting above 147 anymore. if martinez wants it, he can challenge pac at that weight. but theres another downside to this. pac would be "weight-draining" him and itll be a ***** fight. nothing is ever good enough.

                How about we start match-making inactive fighters who they need to fight ASAP?

                Who do you think FMJ should fight next?

                He's been missing for quite a while, don't you think?

                  LOL. Or how about have Martinez fight guys his own size instead?

                  Haters want Pac to fight guys twice his size now. Face it. Nobody left but Floyd. The sport is dead.

                    Right, because Pac fought for the '54 lb. title that use to belong to Martinez.
