    4 Possible Fights For Manny Pacquiao

    1. juan manuel marquez vs. manny pacquiao V - all they're fights have been thrilling to watch and after pacquiao-marquez 4, it only makes sense to see a 5th installment. it's the biggest fight out there right now, even bigger than pacquiao-mayweather i think.

    2. robert guerrero vs. manny pacquiao - after guerrero's fight with andre berto last month, this match-up doesn't look that bad. guerrero has shown that he can physically compete with anyone in the division and has displayed the toughness to go along with his good boxing abilities.

    3. timothy bradley vs. manny pacquiao II - this would be for the WBO belt which i think pacquiao so badly needs right now.

    4. winner of kell brook-devon alexander vs. manny pacquiao - an oppurtunity for pacquiao to face the up and comers in the divison and a shot at another world title belt.

    5. paulie malignaggi vs. manny pacquiao - in order to rejuvinate pacquiao's stock, he needs to clean out the division, and this fight is a good place to start.

    i think pacquiao would brutalize any of those opponents, even marquez. pacquiao has shown in past he can bounce back after suffering a ko defeat and before he calls it quits, pacquiao needs to show everyone out there what it takes to be true fighter.

    Guerrero is the best fight on that list, but won't happen cause of promoter beef. No more Marquez fights, the rivalry ended.

      I think the Bradley fights makes the most sense. Not a big puncher. Should never fight Marquez again though. Maybe, even Mayweather is still possible now, you never know.

        You're living in a fantasy world, that wasn't just a KO defeat that was a brutal punch that put him to sleep for a few minutes. He hasn't been stopped like that before and when fighters get older after already receiving a career worth of blows to the head it's going to have a lasting effect. It's all down hill from here Pacquiao fans stop expecting him to bounce back to the top because it isn't going to happen.

          It's not like the guys on that list are monsters or anything. I mean Pac would beat Paulie fairly easily and he already beat Bradley. Aside from Marquez (who I don't want to see Pac fight anyway) I think Guerrero is the most evenly matched fight.

            Bradley - will be a much tougher fight than the first, after the first few rounds Bradley adapted and got comfortable. I'd pick Bradley by UD.

            Malignaggi - would be an easy fight for him.

            Guerrero - I believe this would be a war, Pacquiao obviously would be the choice to win but i think it's too tough of a test to fight after coming back from a KO.

            Marquez - He will be gun shy second guessing before throwing a punch, Marquez UD or Pacquiao gets stopped.
