    bob arum/pacquiao have no obligation to fight the middleweight champ of the world. Pac is 5'6 and barely even a welterweight, he's more of a true junior welterweight.

    As for Clottey, is he a bigger name than Martinez? I doubt it, but he was the highest ranked available welterweight at the time when Pac fought him.

      So he's not interested in him fighting Cotto, Chavez, Pacquiao or Margarito.

      So was Joshua Clottey a household name? Was he a star? Was he a PPV attraction??

      How about Yuri Foreman?? Was he a bigger star than Sergio Martinez??
      clottey was a way bigger name than martinez at the time of fighting pacquiao

      martinez was still a turd who nobody cared for back then jus look at his resume it was terrible. still is.

        Clottey is a easier fight....Martinez can make Manny look REALLY bad with his style....now add on the fact that he's much much bigger....for Sergio it would be like taking candy from a baby.....so if I was making money off of Manny I wouldn't let him fight Sergio either...it would be ******...not good business imo....Floyd is bigger than Manny as well and from what I've seen...the SAME rules apply....Mr. Pac is making ALOT of ppl ALOT of cake these days....and they're not gonna let ANYBODY mess that up!!

          Not only was he a bigger star than Martinez ever will be but hes faced the tougher fighters and has the better resume and more money in his bank account

          Clotteys career > Martinez
          Clottey is a B fighter and still an unknown but hardcore fans. He never headlined not even a showtime or HBO event unless there was a bigger name fighter.

          Typical ******* thinking
