Shortlist For Manny Pacquiao's Next Opponent Per Bob Arum

[ramplamp]

Yep, Haymon will have no involvement in this at all (which makes sense...because it's actually a good matchup), unless he is still on as Khan's "adviser". Arum still made it clear that he won't have to deal with Haymon when setting up the fight.

If I had my choice I'd rather see Khan fight either Danny Garcia again, or, better yet, Kell Brook. Then I'd put Manny in with Lucas or Crawford, preferably Lucas just because I like the guy.

[Barcham]

Matthysse. Anyone other than Khan, really. I just can't stand the guy. But then again... it could be promoted as Christians against Islam and the fight would sell itself.

[SalimShady1212]

lucas and khan and brook are haymon....

if those two are options then every haymon fighter is also an option,yet he publicly (arum) stated that danny is not an option because hes with haymon

**** dont make no sense

and its not every single day you see a guy sueing the other for 100 million in damages doing work with said guy

Kell Brook is matchroom, and Lucas rejected Haymon for Goldenboy...

Pacquiao-matthysse is a hell of a fight.

[Aztekkas]

this makes no sense to me,if 3/4 of the options are haymon guys,why cant pac fight the other haymon guys like thurman,garcia etc??

I believe only one is.

Brook fought and beat Porter but he didn't sign to Haymon for the fight. Crawford is TR and Lucas remained loyal and stayed with GBP. Amir Khan was lured to Haymon by dangling the Mayweather golden ticket in front of him for some time to no success, so I'm not sure where he stands.

All the fights are possible. Even if Amir was under Haymon, I'm sure Bob would secure the fight one way or another if he truly wanted it. I mean, Pacquiao fought Mayweather this past May after all... And he's Haymon's star fighter.

I'd like to see manny come back at 140 again at matthysse. Would be a really explosive fight.

[DoktorSleepless]

Matthysse vs Pacquiao OMG. So long since we've seen Pacquiao in a war.

[Straight Up]

well Terence Crawford it is. but to be honest i don't give a f uck. the fght with Mayweather was done and it ****** so really he could fight a bum out of booger town and not a sh it f ck would be given.

[Weebler I]

Pacquiao-Crawford

If Crawford is as advertised then let's see it because Bob sure as hell isn't letting him near Matthysse.

OP you left off Marquez who Bob mentioned.

[Joey_Torreo]

Not brook, brook don't want to fight anybody
