    Pac will still have plenty of opponents, he can fight anyone and still sell tickets.

    I see the haymond 147 monopoly hurting bradley more so. After Pac retires, bradley is clearly the best at 147 but who is he going to fight? everyone is under haymond, hope bradleys contract is up soon.

      What about Kell Brook vs Timothy Bradley? Everyone sleeping on Bradley like he can't win in April.

        That would be hilarious.

        First Khan's stablemate gets the Floyd fight over him, then Khan's English rival gets the Pacquiao fight over him. Please Pac and Arum do this for the fans

          I'm not! I think he beats Pacquiao this time around. Kell beats them both though.

            Nobody should completely sleep on Bradley, but the thing is he didn't exactly looked good in the first two fights where he was actually fresher and younger. Yes Pacquiao is older and talking retirement, but Bradley is also older. It depends who has retained more of their speed and stamina. Given Pacquiao's performance against Algieri, an okay boxer who moves a lot, i'd say Pacquiao still got it. And he didn't look that bad against Mayweather either. On ther other hand Pacquiao could be bored out of his mind in the gym and not have his heart in it anymore, while Bradley sees this as the ultimate chance at reviving his career, rising in the P4P ranks, setting himself up for another big money fight vs Cotto at 154, etc. So mentality can definitely play a big part in this. If Pacquiao is taking Bradley 100% serious, then TB won't win.

              I have Bradley winning this time with Atlas. I don't see Kell Brook beating Bradley either. Beating just one good fighter in Shawn Porter isn't gonna make me a believer in Brook. It's not like he wiped him out. He won a split decision and all Porter is so far is a 1 time champion. The verdict is still out in my eyes on Porter and Thurman because they have beaten a lot of guys that were past their primes. The fight between those two will answer some questions.

                  I think Pac will retire and the Khan's over rate themselves and their worth.They have already called Manny and his team liars so like most I can't see that Manny or his team would have any more dealings with them BUT it would be hilarious.

                    This is a great fight. However, Brook has bigger fish to fry vs the likes of Bradley Skeete and Sam Eggington. Pacquiao can get in the queue though.
