    The deadline to make a deal with Floyd Mayweather Jr. has passed. Top Rank Promotions CEO Bob Arum gave Mayweather a deadline of July 16 to sign a deal to fight Manny Pacquiao on November 13. The next opponent for Pacquiao (51-3-2, 38 KOs) will be one of two options - either WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto, or ex-titlist, Antonio Margarito. A fight against either opponent could take place in Mexico or Abu Dhabi. Margarito and Pacquiao would meet for the vacant WBC junior middlweight title..............................:hi:

    WTF abu dhabi? I don't really want to see cotto-pacquiao again. Pac already dominated cotto. I rather see pac-margarito but not in abu dhabi.

    Makes sense. In both cases Arum will be pocketing a GIGANTIC site fee.

    Who cares if the fans don't want to see the opponents and the fight is at strange hours?

    Rot Stank. Doing it for the fans! :good

    It'd be pretty cool if the fight were in Mexico City. Estadio Azteca is only about 10 minutes from where I live, and while I don't think either fight would be good, it'd be nice to see Pac fight in person.

    Nothing like gorging yourself on third world corruption and filthy rich repressive oil monarchy's money!

    Arum does it for the kids! The kids man!

    Calm down, Neo. The first days out of the Matrix are always the hardest.
