    Hopefully Manny, but won't surprise me if Manny fights Shane now. Roach likes them washed up guys to fight Manny.

    Manny Pacquiao...


    These two assholes need to fight each other quickly before one of them is defeated. Any kind of blemish would ruin the fight....Pacquiao look great vs. Cotto and Clottey....Mayweather did the same vs. Marquez and Mosley.

    The time is now....this year...NOVEMBER....

    What stopped it from happening the first time Vida. What does Roach, Arum and Pacquiao all say in unison that will prevent a fight happening between the two.

    Martinez, Williams, Berto or Timothy Bradley. Id say Martinez is the toughest fight for Floyd out of those guys. What you think? Obviously Pac is the biggest and toughest fight out there for May.

    Williams is by far a tougher night out for Fraud than Martinez,... Martinez would be awkward and uncomfortable sure,.. but Paul will be a different kind of awkward, ....extremely rangey and tall, with a million black batts to Fraud's ear, chin and chest.

    Paul Williams would be an excellent fight but I doubt we'll see Paul @ 147.
    Cotto maybe, but I think his best days are gone.
    It's a shame that PBF retired when the division was looking good.

    Heres the deal. All roads lead through PBF atleast that's what he says. PBF also says that he fights for pay checks fighting williams, martinez and whoever else aint gonna make him the type of money he will make fighting pac. So if it aint manny dude prolly won't fight. I'll Holla 5000

    i love all you noble boxing fans that would risk your health against all these dangerous fellows for relatively short change to appease fanatics. face it, if most of you had the talent to be a top level boxer it is doubtful you'd retain the dedication to continue staying in shape after becoming a millionaire, let alone a hundred millionaire.

    Ah yes, to appease boxing fans, that would be pathetic wouldn't it Neil. It would be pathetic for him to make multiple millions of dollars worth of 'short change' for it aswell.

    Ok but here's the problem.Floyd won't risk it against those fighters you just mentioned because they don't generate enough attention or money for Floyds liking,plus those are risky fights.Actually I would be very stunned if he fights any of those fighters you mentioned.

    Dawg those dudes all get beat by PBF without a doubt. The thing is whether we like it or not all roads lead through PBF. Those dudes must step their game up to get on his level. The only fighter that's on PBF's level is Manny. Why fight for chump change which ain't really chump change when you can fight for $50 million chippers against Manny. I'll Holla 5000

    Well if that's the case, I don't want to hear him comparing himself to the greatest fighters again, because you can't have it both ways.

    The only fights that would be interesting at all other than Pacquiao are Martinez or Williams.

    But Floyd said he doesn't care about the Manny fight. It's another $30 million for Floyd or whatever but he's not desperate for the money as you saw last night in the Merchant interview. Floyd won't lose sleep if the fight is made or not. Nor will Manny. Both guys have already said they'll go their seperate ways if they can't agree to terms.
    We gotta accept it and move on from dreaming about this sh*t.

    Everything in life has a SEQUENCE, and the ONLY road Floyd has right now in boxing is Manny PACQUAIO.

    Their fight would be fought in turbo speed and at the highest level. The saddest thing would be the winner and the loser would have possibly one more fight against a Williams or Martinez and then ride into the hall of fame in their first year of elligibility.

    Floyd needs to fight Manny next and then retire. Floyd has slowed, it was evident in this last fight. He has maybe one or two good fights left in him.

    If he doesn't get Pacquiao then KO Berto and then retire...

    Slowed down a bit? Because he got hit a couple of times? PBF looked just ad good as he always has.

    Nah he's slipped physically. He makes up for it by being extra cerebral.

    I don't know if Mayweather has slip but he has taken more right hands in the last two fights than he has since the Castillo fights...
