Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Selects Next Opponent, Arum Quiet on Decision

Thank God, they decided to move on.

Pacquiao-Peterson would be one hell of a fight, that fight has fireworks written all over it.

You'd rather see Pacquiao fight Peterson than Mayweather?

If i was Cotto, I'd make them fight me at 154. But like Manny, he's just another puppet who can't think for himself.

the only fight should be Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao knows it. a Cotto II, Marquez IV and a Bradley fight will be still there despite the outcome with Floyd..... But knowing how Top Rank works, I wont be surprised if Pacquiao picked Cotto at 154 to be held at the Garden on the eve of the Puerto Rican Parade on June 9th.

wasnt arum the one that said that pac would never fight in ny because of the high taxes

Manny Pacquiao has more fans in the world than Mayweather does. But those fans are simply "Pacquiao Fans." They don't watch boxing!!! They aren't boxing fans in the sense of the word!!! Mayweather probably has less fans than Cotto does TBH, but everyone who's followed boxing for the last 15 years knows what a technical artist he is, and therefore, Money has more boxing fans that watch him than Pac does. PERIOD!!!

Bob Arum should have kept his mouth shut about this the guy has a big mouth I have a feeling Cotto vs Pac is happening if no Mayweather it's the only fight that can sell and make the most money.

Of course I want to see Pacquiao-Mayweather.

They've already tried to make that fight, why keep repeating something that will end up into nothing.

I hope Cotto and Maywetather fight May 5th I'm sure he will make more money then a fight with Manny. Manny should fight Bradley but who knows who he pickd jinkie says Cotto but can hey agree on weight? last fight i think it was at 144?

I thought Pac said on Thursday that he would pick an opponent in 48 hours. Now it's next week? Pac is delaying to force Floyd to pick his opponent so that Pac can say Floyd is ducking?

That's exactly what they're doing. Team Floyd did said they would pick their next opponent yesterday, but it looks like they're[wise move by them] waiting for Team Pacquiao to make their announcement first.

[JJRod]

This is such a ***** move by Arum and team Pacquiao.
If he picks anyone not Mayweather, I believe he will lose a lot of fans.

I can't believe someone whose a politician can be so passive and sheep-like. I swear to god if Pacquiao shows up to congress in Jinkee's lipstick, wigs, and leggings his only answer will be 'Cause my promoter told me to.'
