    lol Mike Jones, Gamboa, Rios? Bob is running out of credible Top Rank opponents for Manny. Pretty soon he's gonna have to go down the list to Donaire, Juanma, and Segura, or else just retire Manny.

      Let me guess this straight. Manny's possible opponents are:

      1. A Lightweight
      2. A featherweight
      3. a WW prospect

      Hopefully Arum is just throwing out these bs names so when Pac Bradley is made, people will actually think its a semi good fight

        Ok. So then other than Floyd; who should Pacquiao fight? Name some better opponents...

          So who should he fight, if not Mayweather?

            Well, there goes Sergio Martinez's chance. Too bad. He reached his prime at the wrong age at the wrong weight level.

                Mike Jones and Bradley are good opponents for anyone at 140-147

                Rios - meaningless fight but "fan friendly"....Rios could play the VILLIAN which would make for an interesting pre fight hype and 24/7. FOTY candidate. Rios would get the beating of a lifetime though in war

                Gamboa - not happening

                Sergio Martinez - same day weigh in at 150 is probably what it would take to make this as Arum said and probably what Team Pac would agree to


                The good thing about Manny's possible opponents is that there are no more Mosley's out there for him.

                  The only logical fights left for Manny is Mayweather and Bradley. If he isn't willing to fight Martinez at 154, then that fight is irrellavent. If Manny won't fight any of these guys, he needs to retire.

                    This right here^^^ Arum is killing any chance of there being a Pac vs May fight. Man I wish Pac would drop his old behind.
