If Manny Pacquiao had a brain of his own...

... he would go after the fight with Marcos Maidana before anyone else gets the opportunity to pounce. Maidana is a top fighter but he is not at that level we have seen Pacquiao reach in the past. The blueprint is there on how to beat Maidana. A victory in this fight would put Pacquiao right back at the top of the pile, on the tip of everyone's tongue as far as a fight with the #1 P4P goes. I think it would irk Floyd Mayweather, Jr. enough, if Manny was able to get to Maidana first and do the job in style that Floyd's "lil bro" was so incapable of doing. Even if Manny isn't interested in going the Floyd/#1 route, he still has a lot to gain from this match-up.

Nah not really mate.

Don't hate. Your Broner suggestion brings nice images to the mind of Manny finishing him in a style that Maidana couldn't, but that isn't the only route. Maidana is a hotter ticket back to the top right now for Manny, not someone fresh off an embarrassing exposure!

It's a waste of time even talking about a GBP fighter fighting Pacquiao, Arum isn't going to let it happen.

It's Schaefer who refuses to work with Arum, not the other way around. There are about 3-4 articles quoting Schaefer saying he refuses to do anything with Arum on the main page of this website.

After about 4 years of Arum refusing to work with GBP we going to blame Schaefer for finally saying **** him? GTFO moron.

Pac was beating (Oscar,Hatton, Cotto, Margarito,Bradley) even Marquez right before the ko. Floyd will never fight Pac no matter what. All those demands from Floyd are all excuses and he is always ready to change it from bad to worst just to duck the fight. Floydiots using the test and Arum why the fight didn't. happen are idiots. There are tons of videos out there for you to watch. Those ducking came from the horse mouth supporting the fact that he is indeed a coward.

I know one thing's for certain Maidana actually has balls unlike ***** Rios who fought like a castrated dunce as soon as he entered the ring with pac. At least Maidana will go out on his shield after Pac KTFO him
