    Well I for one think Pac-Crawford is a bad idea. I wouldn't mind seeing Pac-Maidana. Very limited opponents if you're just looking at TR though.

    Not sold one bit on Vargas and I dont think he can take a good punch

    Bradley may drop him

    Maybe for a payday against Pac, Haymon might be willing to sacrifice someone. I'd love to see him beat the living s*** out of Broner. I think he'd take care of Danny Garcia without much trouble too. Paulie's trolled about Pacquiao for years, and that should be easy work. And I wouldn't expect Provodnikov to get much more done than Rios...so they would be 4 names I'd be thinking about.

    Providnikov would be an exciting fight but he's been on the losing end of most of his fights so I wouldnt tab him to be the comeback opponent. I see Pac taking on a good fighter but one without great power that he can come back and overwhelm. TR/Haymon fight seems very unlikely.

    Perhaps. I'd personally advise him to retire. Maybe Mikey Garcia if he still with Top Rank jumping up 2 divisions after been out of the ring for ages would be seen as a gimme.

    I'd agree with that as well. Although I also see him fighting Vargas if he were to beat Bradley. Not expecting Vargas to win but you never know. Whoever Manny fights it will be someone he is favored against stylistically.

    Yep. Unless a Mayweather rematch. Not buying the rumours that Crawford/ Brook are coming up for Manny. Difficult fights and there is still cash in the cow yet.

    Vargas can't break an egg.

    In4therobbery. Bradley's probably risen as high as his marketability will go, Vargas will be fed to Manny after his scope recovery which won't be long miraculously and then he'll be ''back'' for the Mayweather rematch.

    If I was Arum and looking for a warm up fight for Pacquiao, the 4 guys I'd look at are:

    - Broner (easy work for Pac and Mayweather's bum chum)
    - Paulie (easy work for Pac and chance to punish Paulie for his trolling)
    - Provodnikov (won't do much more than Rios did but would be entertaining)
    - Danny Garcia (big name but a fight Pac qould win pretty easy IMO)
