    Timothy Bradley should fight Juan Manuel Marquez, it makes the most sense right now. Fight him at Staples Center so you don't have to worry about the "judges" but I'm sure JMM would rather fight him at Cowboys Stadium or something.

        I get that but I don't think Pacquiao is going to fight Marquez anyways. I'm fully expecting Bob Arum to bring Miguel Cotto back into the fold to fight Manny probably at a catch-weight of 150lbs., which will allow Arum to save face and then whoever wins Bradley/Marquez can fight Manny after that. Arum's not dumb and I'm sure he's trying to get Pacquiao/Cotto II done like he almost had last time.

            Khan, Berto or Ortiz. Though, I'd like to see him fight Maidana. See if he doesn't knockdown Bradley.

              I could see Berto happening but honestly, Bob Arum is not going to work with Golden Boy right now. It's just not going to happen.

                Top Rank has a AWFUL GROUP OF WELTERWEIGHTS (just Bradley, Pacquiao and Mike Jones and he already been exposed), so I am not sure how Arum will be able to keep things "IN HOUSE" but with Bradley he is actually a pretty good fighter so you don't have to set him up against "TAYLOR MADE OPPONENTS" or none of that, I got Bradley by UD over any Welterweight not named Mayweather to be honest

                Seems like Bradley has more options and bigger fights at 140 then he does at 147

                  With Arum around, Bradley would wait forever lol...
