    **** bob arum, he's a weasel.

    Also as may 5th is 'cinco de mayo', if i was Mayweather id call out Saul Alvarez and make a big money fight with him instead. Easy to make both being linked to GBP, and IMO a very winnable fight for FM despite Alvarez size advantage.

    there needs to be a 4th fight,its still not settled.

    ide rather see that first,then see pac fight floyd,i mean floyd is already saying if pac struggled with marquez he cant beat me,so floyds excuses are there already!.

    pac and marquez only choice the 4th time round is to go to war,wear each other out,hurt each other,cut each other up,go for a TKO or KO victory.

    points,scorecards and judges wont settle anything with their mismash of styles.

    Who is Pac's WBO 'Mandatory' at the moment?
     
  4. The WBO won't nominate a mandatory challenger to Pacquiao.

    It's not in their interests to try to get him to fight anybody, financially speaking.

    I thought that would be the case (was being a touch facetious asking)

    It's would probably be Matthew Hatton anyway ??

    Arum has never wanted the Mayweather fight.

    I like Alvarez vs Mayweather at 154lbs
     
  10. I'm not keen on it, though I could see it happening.

    Floyd would stand him on his head.

    The only thing Alvarez has in his favour in this fight is size, but that's nothing when you consider Floyd's huge skill and experience advantage.

    He was made to look less than stellar by Matthew Hatton, who (no disrespect intended) is little more than a basic, stand up boxer with a decent chin.

    Well that's why he wants the 4th fight with Marquez cause at the moment he won't get the same money out of the Mayweather fight that he would of got Pre Marquez 3 ?

    Good. I don't want to see Pac fight Floyd after 2 horrible performances, with most thinking he lost his last fight. No allure and Floyd should be a comfortable fave.

    Pac has to come back and light JMM up to reinstate the initial hype.

    Shame Pacquiao wasn't so keen to fight Marquez again after their previous fight.

    why does anyone want to see Pac v JMM again?, all it will prove is they know each other too well and it'll be even more boring than saturday night, even if JMM had got the decision the other night who cares, it would of meant he beat Pac no more, Pac would remain the P4P best in the world. A couple of weeks ago Novak Djokovic got beat by Kei Nishikori, does that make Nishikori the World No 1 because he beat the World No1?.
    If JMM beats Pac and JMM gets put on the floor by Katisidis and Burns handles Katisidis comfortably does that make Ricky P4P best in the world?.


    Come one be serious we all want Pac vs Floyd, we dont want Pac v JMM 4.

    Floyd will be pleased at the news.Means he doesnt have to retire just now.
