    "Manny wants to fight the best and the Mayweather fight is the one he wants, probably at a catchweight of 143 pounds. Mayweather says that he is going to have his father and uncle training him and i feel Manny can definitely deal with him. Floyd is a great fighter, but he has flaws that we can take advantage of, no doubt about it."

    I just read that too. I know Arum said the other day that Pacquaio will campaign at 140 and I think FMJ wont go there so catchweight it may well have to be.

    It's a mega-fight for sure and for now I'm saying FMJ wins on points but I've not had time to mull over it....with a beer or two.

    That's nice, and after what happened this past Saturday, I would NEVER doubt Roach ever again, but I'd want Pac to fight The Hitman first.

    Roach seems pretty determined to have Manny fight Floyd first rather than Hatton...

    All in good time. If he beats Hatton, this fight is starting to look closer to being possible.

    Mayweather wants Pacman to move up to 175 to take on Dawson meanwhile Mayweather will try to secure a mega fight with Ivan Calderon.

    Than once Mayweather beats Calderon he will move on and fight the remains left over from the Pac/Dawson fight.

    If either of them fought Pacquiao they would be some of the biggest pussies ever. Margo should fight people his own size

    There are no more Aztec warriors for you to even talk about. AM isn't rematching Williams... Pac and Floyd have beaten the Aztec warriors lol. Just sit tight and let the African American and the Filipino fight lol. Nobody wants to see a post by your sideline ass until about a year from now. AM and Vasquez, and that's it.
