      Do you think it would be enough to get him the win, or do you think Pacquiao would be too much for brook.

Doesn't mean I wouldn't root for him, but for real I want to see Broner beat the **** out of Mayweather. Do I think it would happen, no. But I can only wish. I want mayweather vs pacquiao just as much as anyone else on this forum, and if unifying the belts make it more likely, so be it. Anything but Mayweather vs Khan. But think about Pacquiao vs Brook for a second, it could turn out to be an interesting fight.
        Yet you said brook has a good chance of beating pacquaio so if he beat him that jeopardises the Pac vs Floyd fight.

          Goes without saying that we'd all like to see Manny-Floyd first.

          But in the not too improbable scenario where that fight falls through, then yes I'd be all for this fight.

          The best opponents for Manny right now, given the Haymon situation, are Herrera and Kell Brook. Those two fights could actually happen.

          Floyd, Maidana, Danny, Lucas etc, who knows what happens there.

            He has a good chance, and I think he can beat him. Do I think he would, I don't know. Kell Brook is not Chris Algieri. But If Pacquiao wins but looks sloppy, that may entice floyd to take the fight. I am going to be honest, I think Floyd beats Pacquiao, I am sure of that. I think floyd himself is not so sure though. But Brook vs Pacquiao could be one hell of a fight anyway.

                Would definitely be a good fight and a very legitimate fight in my view.

                  I couldn't give a **** if Floyd retired tomorrow, hes almost ran out of flat-footed brawlers to fight anyway so he might as well fight Rios in May, Provodnikov/Castillo trilogy in September and **** off back into retirement anyway whilst maintaining to be ''TBE''.

                  Bring on Manny vs Brook, two real fighters.

                    Good post .

                    I think PAC opponents should be:

                    1. Floyd
                    2. Jmm
                    3. Brook
                    4. Thurman
                    5. Winner of Alexander/khan vs maidana/Garcia

                      Brook has the power to KO Pac do you agree or disagree?
