    Man, Pacquiao has a better chance to beat Williams than Floyd. There's just not enough money there to risk it.

    don't speak about mandatory when khan has been avoiding taking that fight for how long now, so he could work on his china chin.

    Both bradley and alexander are undefeated, both champions, they have more of a say than a guy who got knocked out by a nobody in prescott.

    Coming from someone who tried to portray Pacquiao as a junior welterweight every day when he thought the fight with Mayweather was going to get made just so Floyd wouldn't get as much credit if he did beat him.

    If they do fight whoever wins will get a huge amount of credit for their career best win.

    I do though Morales was clearly faded Pacquiao still avenged a previous loss to him and beat him twice. Even against DLH people thought he would be too big but as soon as Pacquiao beats him like he stole something, critcs still wouldn't give him credit despite Pacquiao being the underdog. I give Pacquiao credit for beating Morales twice & beating DLH and I did that even before I became a fan of him.

    Disagree completely williams would destroy pac, his reach alone would stop pac coming in.

    Williams would beat both pac and floyd.:deal

    Both these guys duck him like the plague.

    :lol: Have more of say?. Don't make me laugh. You must be Shaw sitting behind your computer. Money talks, and Bradley and Alexander have no say in it.

    Bull****, Pacquiao won't get credit for beating "this" Marquez. ****, people are giving Khan hell for trying to fight Marquez. Hell, people are giving Pacquiao **** for fighting Margarito - someone Floyd NEVER wanted to fight.

    Glass fraud khan knows full well he would lose to both Alexander and Bradley.

    I'm calling it like I see it now, before the fight.

    So I'm saying Pac is smaller than Mayweather (which is obvious) beforehand and taking that into consideration in my prediction.

    That's totally different than people who say before the fight that so and so will knock his opponent out or "take him to school" and have millions of excuses after the fight that they didn't acknowledge before the fight.

    See the Pacquiao vs Oscar fight, where everyone knew beforehand that the fight was gonna be at 147 and that Oscar hadn't fought there in 8 years

    You need to do your homework.

    Floyd offered to fight margarito a long time ago. Arum knows this to.:deal

    Our opinions differ, but just go watch his fight with Mitchell. I'd love to see them fight Williams, but I understand why they wont, there is just too much money to be made fighting easier opponents.
