Pacquiao needs to secure Canelo for September

[KING MEAT]

Its a nice idea but do u follow boxing? not gonna happen.

look at my post count compared to yours.

[RL_GMA]

Pacquiao fought Margarito at 17 lb difference with rito weighing 165 on fight night.

very similar to Floyd-ortiz

Pac needs to campaign at 54 just for the canelo fight. i think is a possibility if not for this HBO/SHO/TR/GBP feud.

Do you really believe Pacquiao would beat Alvarez at 154lbs?

[Oh_Snap]

Pac has NO business at 154. Margarito didn't land a lot on Pac but he hurt him whenever he did. Didn't he weigh in at like 144 for that fight?

[Weebler I]

I liked Pacquiao over Alvarez at 147, I think I'd still favour Pacquiao at 154.

Where I disagree with OP is about bringing LWs up. I don't think the Rios fight should happen but Alvarado is a JWW.

his business there is a Prizefight and to entice Floyd.

pac was 148 and rito was 165 on fight night.

[The Tase]

The margarito fight caused a lot of physical problems for pacquiao and they clearly stated the max weight they are gonna fight in is 147.

waste of a thread.

pac has been outweighed everyone he fights, he has no business fighting JWWs anymore. 54 is only a weight class north.

Dont tell me this aint a live fight cuz this will for sure just sell itself, with pacs loss in regard.

He is tarnishing his legacy by cherrypicking lightweights and making them move up in weight in that stable.

yes its a 54 title but him and floyd has similar wieghts. no excuses. he needs to beat floyd to the gun in fighting the ginger.


If Pac beats Canelo thats an automatic fight, hype is a live again for Mayweather-Pacquiao on Cinco de Mayo 2014.

Gbp vs top rank. Also, if PAC didn't want to fight a ww (margarito) at the full 154, what makes you think he'll wanna fight a very big legit junior middleweight

[antrecasner]

Am I missing something, did golden boy and top rank make up and squash there bull....? The only way any of those fights happen if pacman is not under contract with top rank anymore.

[boliodogs]

Two problems here. First, Golden Boy and Top Rank do not do business together on important fights. Canelo is under contract with Golden Boy and Pacquiao is under contract with Top Rank. We all wish they would make big fights with each other but they won't and nobody can make them do business together. Second, Pacquiao is way to small to fight Canelo and he would lose. Canelo would outweigh him by at least 20 pounds when they entered the ring. Pacquiao and his team said clearly he would not fight above 147 after Margarito badly hurt him with body punches. Canelo hits the body like a sledge hammer.
