    Jesus, it's like they're making it up as they go.

    So they're not letting Thurman have his tune up first?

      I rather just see pacman fight Keith Thurman next for the legit wba
      LOL yea I can just foresee Broner shaking his head for 12 rounds.

      And sh^t preaching to the choir on what "I'd rather see". I was hoping Floyd would go out vs Thurman or Porter back when he fought Berto.

        Yeah, if they can get Pacquiao on regular NBC or Fox in an entertaining fight, that would pay dividends in hyping up a Mayweather rematch.

        I was just thinking about that yesterday, and how it would be massive if they could do Pac-Broner on regular TV and then a Mayweather rematch on PPV, but the financials probably just aren't there.

          He already lost to Jeff Horn. Berto is a step up from Horn.

            I thought Vernon Forrest was?

              Berto seems like a live dog for sure to me.
              Not at all, I actually think berto wins this if it happens.

                Lets not get crazy now lol. Those Manny & Floyd fanboys & haters are still the most irrational mfers in the sport.

                  Oh sh^t you picking Berto? Respect. I'm not gonna be that bold. I think its for sure a winnable fight for Berto doe. Maybe 70/30, 60/40 Manny's way.

                    Booo, we wanted Broner/Pac. Berto got a gift against Alexander

                      One thing I will say about Berto is he has very little wear on him despite the wars he's been in. You see him fight now and he doesn't look all that different than he did in his prime. He'll put up a fight.

                      He's always been there to be hit, though. Pacquiao stops him inside of 6.
