    Since Pacquiao will be facing Alvarado....why doesn't he just fight in July

    and then again in November?

    This isn't to discredit Mike Alvarado, but if your not going to take a difficult fight, why not fight twice this year to stay active especially considering you up in age.

    I doubt it would happen, but it would be dope if he fought Alvarado in July
    and Rios in Nov/December.

    better question why is this fight even happening anyway?? why not pick someone from 147? Bob Arum needs to let go of all this beef crap, his fighters are going in circles because they have no one to fight.

        Who else is there for him to fight at 147?

        If anything I would like him to fight Matthysse or Garcia, but I see what you are saying.

        My point is if you are going to take a weak fight, why wait all the way to Nov and hype it up as something great/ppv worthy.

            Didn't know PAC had already fought rios and alvarado and didn't know marquez already fought Bradley.. Cuz I don't see this his fighters are going around in circles??

              Don't get what's with some people's obsession with 147. It a desert.

              Here's Ring's top 10.
              1.Floyd. (never going to happen)
              2.Marquez (already happened 4 times and Marquez said no)
              3.Guerrero (Floyd is fighting him and will be coming off a loss after May)
              4. Kell Brook (lol)
              5. Paulie Malignaggi (lol)
              6. Tim Bradley (Already saw and he's fighting Marquez)
              7. Ortiz (This wouldn't be bad, but he's coming off a long layoff and just got beaten by freaken Lopez)
              8. Alexander (*throws up*)
              9. Keith Thurman (You seriously want this guy over Alvarado?)

                Because he doesn't have too?? Considering how he's been doing it all his whole career.

                  He was brutally knocked out. The more time off the better for him.

                    Pac is shot
                    it's no certainty he can even beat Alvarado
                    this fight is far more dangerous for him than it looks
                    wouldn't be surprised if he gets beat
