    I'd rather see Pac fight all the comers at 140 where he's obviously more comfortable than go up in weight and fight at welter. I don't care what anybody says, he didn't have KO power at 147 against ODLH.

    I think Holt, Bradley, Witter, Guzman, Campbell all have a real chance at outboxing Pac. I don't want to see Pac lose by decision. I'd rather see him get KTFO if he's going to lose.

    I think you throw a big wad of money to Ricardo Torres, He'd make weight at 140 to fight Pac. and I think he's got a real good chance at knocking out Pac at 140 OR 147.

    You know Bradley vs Pacquiao would be a **** hot fight and no walk in the park for the Pacman. Bradley's got some sick speed with insane stamina and decent skills with the right style to trouble Pacquiao. Problem with Bradley is his punches can get a little sloppy when he puts em together and i don't think he packs a punch quite like the Pacman. Pac's speed and especially his skills are on another level than Desert Storms but it would be a hell of a fight. Better than Cotto where noone knows how strong Pacquiao is at the weight or how drained Cotto is or what would happen if this and that. Bradley vs Pacquiao make it happen I say. I think if TBrad KTFO Campbell (which I think he will win by TKO or RTD but not KTFO) he can get a fight against Pacquiao after Cotto if Pacquiao changes his mind about running for congress/president/who gives a ****.

    Here we go again with the revisioninst history bull****. Nate has been down exactly ONCE in his career, when he gave Peden the free shot over 4 years and 2 weight divisions ago. That's it. Thats the only time Nate has EVER been on the canvas. And the 2nd Peden fight was a bull**** stoppage on cuts off-tv in Australia.

    But if you want to use that logic, then fine. Pac has been KTFO twice by MUCH lesser punchers than Nate.

    I don't believe Campbell can beat Pacquiao.

    Maybe he can, maybe he can't. But for the *******s to say Nate would have zero chance is just plain ignorant.

    (but I'm slowly getting used to it. Nate had "no chance" against Kid diamond, "no chance" against Diaz, etc. etc)

    Tyson-Douglas should have showed everyone that nobody knows for sure whats gonna happen until the bell rings.......

    He's got an excellent chance. Why do you think they chose David Diaz over Campbell?

    pac will own the 140 pound division for years if he decided to stay and fight there......his power is devstating at that weight.....nobody beats him, unless its marquez at 140, who has shown his power comes with him when he goes up in weight.

    What makes you so sure man ?
    You seem to like to write fighters off before they have even been in the ring

    i give pac a 60-70 % chance of beating the top guys at 140 lbs even if it is jmm..

    remember that pac had already some difficulty making the 130 lbs SFW limit from their last fight and being uncomfortable, they immediately went up to higher weight class..

    meaning nobody beats pac at 140 lbs even jmm..

    I think that you cannot count out the likes of Bradley, Campbell who we will see fight each other on Aug 1st so the winner of that fight deserves a shot in my opinion and also he has been there done that with JMM, and almost lost and I believe that the winner of Campbell vs Bradley should get Pac if Pac decides to fight on and providing he beats Cotto and only if the Floyd fight falls through.

    I just dont like the way people automatically assume that Pac would just wipe out everyone, Stylistically Campbell and Bradley and even Holt are all Stylistic knightmares for Pac, regardless of how big or small of a name they have.

    Nobody at 140 presents as a serious threat to Pac including JMM who I don't believe can handle Pac's increased power at this weight.

    Power is not the only thing that wins fight.

    Defense is important and Oscar or Hatton had zero defense against Pac

    So your getting too carried away with power.

    A good stiff jab defuses speed and a fighters punching power can diminish the longer a fight goes.

    i don't know about campbell, he's just moved up from LW to JWW and he's 37, i don't think people will give pac his props if he beats him..

    holt has a lot of flaws especially on defense with a suspect chin. as for bradley, i think he'll be the one that could give a competitive fight for pacman but i'd still give pacman the edge, he's just a freak of nature..

    after pac's 2 to 3 fights, you will see what i'm talking about..

    Its an opinion, everyone has the right to their own opinion just like when you said Campbell,Bradley and Holt are nightmares for pac..

    Just let it go man, pac, JMM, floyd, SSM and cotto are now fighting for money and legacy since they have few fights left in them..The guys you mentioned are good fighters, but they dont bring no money nor legacy...

    I think they should make their own "tournaments" down their..Campbell, Bradley, Holt, Valero, Khan, Prescott, Ortiz and a lot more..:good
