I was thinking about this earlier. I just couldn't come up with someone. If he doesn't fight cotto, jmm, or Bradley, (or Floyd for that matter) who could he realistically fight, that people would actually want to see?

[QUOTE=Alpha & Omega;12422487]Man what do people continue to call Manny an "eight division champion"? He is a SIX division titlist, not an EIGHT, period.QUOTE]There are better things to do then be concerned over this.

As a Bradley fan, Pac won 116-112, clearly. Even if you give Bradley another round, which is the most you could possibly give him, he lost 115-113.
But it seems like Pac wants Bradley, to get his belt back and to knock him out. We haven't heard anything from Bradley's side the past couple months, where as we've heard Marquez talk about defending his WBO JWW title if he doesn't get the Pac fight. Plus, Marquez will always be there in 2013 for Manny, if that's the route they travel later on.
I think it's Bradley. If Bradley learned anything from the first fight, it should be fight the way he did the last 3 rounds. Don't trade with manny, because when he elected to trade, that's where he got hurt and lost those rounds. Fight the way you did the last 3 rounds, and Bradley can get a win over Manny, a meaningful one this time.
On a side note, it'd be crazy if they announced Floyd-Pac for November 10th. 50 said his side was in talks with Top Rank, so hopefully we'll see this fight soon.

The Bradley fight still irritates me. It angers me that Bradley's name is even being mentioned for November. I paid for that PPV and I, like 99.9% of everybody who watched it, had Manny comfortably winning that bout. The Floyd/Manny fight was beginning to lose steam before the Bradley fight, but after that "loss", has really been hurt by it. That's no big deal if the superfight never gets made, I realize, but if it does get made, it will just make me that much more angry.
I realize I will be ridiculed for this, but after seeing Floyd, whom I am also a big fan of BTW, struggle with Cotto's left hand in their previous fight; I actually slightly favor Manny to win by a KO if they finally do get in the ring together.

merchant is right these guys just show up to survive for twelve rounds.
bring a fresh hungry guy like broner or thurman.

Spot on Larry..... I do NOT wanna see another JMM or Cotto fight. There is nooooo excitement left. If any of the three id pick Bradley rematch to KO his fake winning azz and move on to Floyd.Plus Fighting Bradley will also help in preparation for FLoyd. If anything though...id love to see new blood myself.

140lb-154 weights classes are extremley loaded with talent, Id love to see manny fight demarco,mathysse,berto,maidana,theres many many fighters that deserve the shot and would make interesting fights, obviousley its never going to be mayweather its really annoyying just to hear mention of that chicken clown. JMM keeps beating manny and getting robbed, bradly fight was as one sided as jMM 3 only in reverseand cotto whod want to see that again? make Mathysse vs Manny now thats a REAL fight no boxing just 2 killer brawlers
