    Just realized Bob could probably make it, Hearn is willing to put his guys out as long as they're compensated right?
    Besides, he'll probably think Manny is too old to do anything.
    Honestly though, has no selling power compared to maybe fighting Provodnikov next, but Arum has to do something to make money in his little Merry-Go-Round.

    I don't see Bradley traveling to China without big bucks, Marquez is a maybe if he's promised a Bradley rematch, but then again doubt he'll want to rematch a guy he just beat because he doesn't do that.
    Alvarado just lost, Provodnikov is a good choice too, especially riding that train.

    Alexander vs Brook should happen next. That was an IBF title eliminator.

      It should, but Brook keeps blowing his chance with injuries... of which I'm very surprised he didn't hurt himself for his upcoming fight.
      He could try again, but things change when Pac or Mayweather come a knocking.

        The fight almost happened when Brook was the mandatory but Brook didn't want to fight Pacquiao. Brook is weird, he has pulled out many big fights and is always chasing the same fight over and over, he has become the Junior Witter now, he has an obsession over Amir Khan, just like Witter was obsessed with Hatton.

        Maybe now he changed his mind since Pac is done.

            Well, he'll probably be barking for Alexander again or Khan while he's in Sheffield

            I don't see it happening unless Khan loses again.

              When bob said pacs next fight will be in china I said the same thing, I don't see Tim going over there and no way in hell Juan goes there. I think if rios survives but maybe knocks PAC down hell get a rematch. Kinda like jcc jr and sergio

                Would have to be a contested/close fight for a rematch to happen soon.
                Juan is a maybe, he said he would if they paid him what he wanted.
                Bradley doesn't want to go over there because he's the champ, but money talks.
                Provo would
                Alvarado was going to
                That's about it....he could try to build up Jesse, but nobody likes him and he wants to fight Provo

                  No. Why would Pacquiao fight Brook? A completely unknown fighter outside of the UK.

                    If he has no options. If it comes down to Vargas/Brooks he'd pick Brooks all day because Vargas is an unknown even in his own state and his style is unappealing to everyone. Before it'd even get to that state though, he'd go with Provo
