    TIM is a perfect opponent to test the waters. TIM is durable and doesn't have the kind of power that Pac needs to be worried about. It won't be fight of the year but it will help Pac with getting his confidence back while getting in some rounds. Ultimately Manny wants another crack at Juan.....let's hope Juan doesn't retire....even though I wouldn't blame him.

    Is there really any need for Pac vs JMM 5?
    So what they were good fights 4 is more than enough now.

    Juan has avenged Pacquiao for good. Time for new things

    JMM vs Manny will do **** numbers...what's the draw of this fight? Pac's drawing power, as it pertains to casuals and those who you have to have to do "huge" numbers...don't give a **** about Manny anymore. It's sad but it's true, JMM fans will watch, Pinoy's will watch, a portion of hardcore fans will watch. No ****ing chance a 5th fight does better numbers than PAC vs PBF...zero ****ing chance, literally NONE. Asinine statement by a bitter old ***, anyone who believes this is ****ing stupid, point blank.

    Bradley already beat Phagquiao. No need to rematch.

    He was up 1 point (even that was debatable) and had got put on his ass in the 3rd? What was so spectacular about it?

    a rematch against bradley is a solid tune-up for pac-marquez 5. bradley has no power, and it is a good test to see if pac has anything left. This leaves JMM without a dance partner, as they say. He'll most likely take on someone like a bradley -solid work but not a threat. Arum is absolutely correct. Pac-JMM 5 is much larger than pac-mayweather.

    There are too many other great matches to be made at 140-147 for Arum to keep rematching all his fighters vs each other. **** Arum.

    The fix was in the first time around, typical Top Rank move.

    If the fifth fight is bigger than Floyd vs Pac, that explains why Pac lost.

    PAC vs JMM 5 is catching more weight than may vs PAC

    But not JMM vs MAY 2

    I don't care if Pacquiao got a bum decision against Bradley, I want to see them rematch.

    Bradley claims he twisted his ankle in the fight and there is footage to suggest there is something to that, so this rematch is of great interest to me.

    Rios has only just moved to 140, I don't want to see him fighting Pac at 147.

    After JMM-PAC 5, then Pac can fight Rios if need be.

    It also give Rios time to have a few more fights and better prepare.
