There's only one guy Pacquiao should fight and since that dude's schedule just filled up for the next 90 days or so, Bradley, Berto, Ortiz, Rios, Guerrero, Maidana, Alvarez, Brook, Peterson, these are the guys that Pacquiao needs to look at fighting next. Boxing needs young talent like those guys to gain some exposure, not guys like Mosley and Marquez who will be retired soon. If not any of those younger guys than maybe a rematch with a revived Mike Cotto, but Pacman needs to keep Marquez's name out his mouth!!!
    he didn't come up short... more like he won and they just simply didn't give it him based on politics, outside influences etc


    also if those are the only options, Paquiao should just retire. I'm not interested in any of those fights. Specially not Cotto

      Marquez outboxed Pac atleast twice. The 3rd fight wasn't particularly close even though Marquez has the cards stacked against him.

      Those names you mentioned, would anybody want them? I mean I certainly wouldn't care about Maidana, Peterson, Ortiz Or Bradley & the rest are green prospects or guys that are at smaller weight classes.

      Only guy I'd want to see vs Pac maybe & providing he earned it and it was not at a b/s catchweight etc is maybe Guerrero

        Pacquiao is the 3rd best boxer today.Behind Marquez (2nd) and Floyd(1st) I see no reason why he should fight Marquez again.Jmm schools him we know that. Pac should fight some of those young stars of boxers in the mean time that Floy is incarcerated. Bradley or Berto sounds good to me.

          I'm a big JMM fan, but he's had his chances and should feel like he's proved his point in the 3rd fight, despite the scoring. I felt that he lost the first two bouts even though many saw him as the superior boxer overall - and this was once again confirmed in the minds of many people with this 3rd fight.

          Plus, I'm not sure that even the media who cover Manny in a positive light can get behind this full force once again to make it an event. From their perspective, they might think JMM is 0-2-1 like above poster said, think he's had his chances, and what's the point.

            The complete world wants to see a rematch of this epic rivalry. I have talked to lot of people in street, most of them mayweather fans And even they want to see this fight desperate this year. And with mayweather arrested and breaking the law again it is the most attractive fight of the year.

            And alsoo why do you hate me when I am pretty much, i say this humble, probably the most intelligent poster on this site (along with check and tha greatest and jazluvr and a few others)? Dont hate me because I am fan of Pac and admire his accomplishment. I bring a lot of great input and knowledge.

              I've asked & nobody really wants to see it as Marquez very likely takes Pac to school again & fails to get the nod.

              I don't hate you I just think you're an idiotic troll & maybe I am wrong and you actually do have great boxing knowledge but until you stop trolling & hating on Floyd and defending Pac by using idiotic comments in hope of a reaction and post something good then I can only assume you're are a kn0b.

              Take for example the gifts under your name you have sent yourself with the comments, clearly a moron with the mentality of a 10 yr old.

                Well maybe Pac should retire then cuz those are the top ranked guys in four weightclasses that are next in line for a shot.

                For the record, yes Marquez did come up short whether you think so or not, that's what's cool about boxing. We can't have this discussion about the Laker game today, they lost, period end of story.

                I know some of the guys I mentioned are young and unproven, but so was Pacquiao when he destroyed Barrera the first time. So were a million other fighters when they got their first chance in a big fight. I think Berto or Bradley could at the very least make an interesting if not dramatic fight against Pacquiao.

                  It is an epic rivalry but don't you think a 4th really only serves Marquez? Manny didn't look like himself due to JMM but that's in the past, just accept it and be happy you got the decision. I understand Team Pac didn't get the highlight reel outcome they desired and felt some backlash for the decision, but it's fine to me if he ends up saying **** Marquez and point to the scoreboard which reads 0-2-1. Even if he finally KO's Marquez, history will always write these as highly competitive matches with JMM being Pac's thorn in his side throughout the years. JMM has proved his point even if he gets KOed next time

                    Rios would probably outweigh Pacquiao fight night for the record so I don't think he's too small. Is he ready? Not sure. Would I pay to see Rios try his luck at Pacquiao? Hell yes!!! Could be fun to watch.

                      Well man as boxing fan I would love to see the rematch. I believe the 3rd one was close and those two put on an entertaining fight every time they face each other. Their styles were made for each other. 10 years from now we'll be wishing to watch those two go at it again and just see them in the ring so as a boxing fan I want to enjoy it while we can u know man.

                      And agree JMM has proven he has everything to trouble Pac. I agree there.
