He just had a butt-load of potential fights dropped into his lap.
1. Thanks to the Provo/Bradley fight, people not only generated more interest in Bradley, but provo too. They can carry that fright with them and promote off of that for future fights.
2. Rios/Alvarado was another war and with Alvarado winning this time, more options opened up.
Like this:
With Alvarado winning, Pac has another potential opponent in Alvarado, as well Marquez.... even Bradley.
Now, Arum has 2 potential PPV events this year. Pac vs anyone is a standalone, but if you pair him up with Provo/Alvarado/Rios, you can take Marquez vs Bradley and put the other two on the undercard and sell that.
And not even that.... with these 6 men, he can just cycle them through and make fights like a merry go round. Even if Pac and Marquez retire, he still has 4 men to hold a mini tourney in the end.
So... all I'm saying....expect these 6 men to be the center of Top Ranks efforts the next year.
Pacquiao
Marquez

Rios
