    Besides Bradley who could he actually fight that's not with Golden Boy Promotions?

    Since the 5th Marquez fight isn't happening who will Pacquiao actually fight in his next few fights? If Top Rank & Golden Boy don't do business, he really only has Bradley & Provodnikov to fight. Alvarado isn't a potential opponent anymore after losing to Provodnikov. Arum really screwed Pacquiao over with opponent options after not wanting to work with Golden Boy.

      Provodnivok- Not likely as both are stablemates
      Kell Brook- He was scared to fight Alexander. Doubt he'd fight Pacquiao

      Just Bradley.

        This is exactly why the cold war is the worst thing ever. None of Pac's potential match ups have high intrigue.

          Yeah, Arum really screwed with his options. If Pacquiao doesn't leave Top Rank after 2014, than he's going to have an extremely hard time fighting anyone. All his potential big fights would be against Golden Boy fighters with the exception of Bradley. He'd have Thurman, Maidana, & Danny Garcia when he moves up to welterweight. Also potential fights with Malignaggi & Broner. But none of these can happen now.

            Pac should fight Maidana if Floyd pick Khan

              This post really nails it. There's a "cold war" going on in boxing right now and instead of correctly identifying this very real phenomenon some fans take the shallow route and blame the boxers. It is what it is.....

                Really it is just Bradley that is mildly intriguing, if JMM won't fight him and Providnikov also won't. After that all Top Rank has is like Jesse Vargas and like Luis Abregu or possibly Brook who isn't Top Rank but would probably jump at that chance.

                I think he will still do alright against Bradley though even though I don't see that fight really playing out all that much differently.

                  People seem to think TR has NEVER done work with Golden Boy. They're going to have to make these fights sooner or later, these are THE guys of the arguably the hottest division. They can ALL make serious $$ making these fights.
