    so pac already said h'ell only fight two more times after hatton. he said he wants to retire with his faculties intact. so after hatton, which two fighters do you think should he face?

    personally, valero then jmm. both at 140. he'll take on a good up and comer in his prime and then finish his career with his nemesis. i think that would be a good way to go out

    its a fanboy fight.

    valero is young prime and undefeated with a spectacular KO record against taxi cab drivers.

    edwin needs to go earn some stripes and prove he's even built for a war with manny,

    i hear you.

    but personally id rather see manny go out with a bang-bang-boogie.

    by pac destroying hatton (which im 90% sure of) will create the kind of immediate buzz for a mega fight with cotto. -win or lose jmm will always be there.

    and @ 140 pac finishes jmm for good. at 35-36, i dont see the additional weight playing in juans favor, you know wat i mean mang. :freddy

    If Pacman beats Hatton I give him much more credit than would go to Floyd for beating Hatton. Pacman would be beating him at Hatton's division. That takes guts. Both Hatton and Pacman are real fighters who take on all comers and fight to win. Whoever loses will not matter. That person earned respect by taking tough fights.

    a third match with JMM and one with mayweather if he wants to come back from retirement. if not a fight against mosley or cotto will do nice

    JMM
    Cotto
    in that order..Cotto is tougher to beat than JMM, so he shouldn't mess up his winning streak before retiring..

    I'm not really sure 2010 is gonna be Pacman's retirement date in boxing. It all depends on how he'll fare on the local election in the Phil.. If he loses, I'm sure he'll get back to boxing even for just a couple of fights just to assuage his hurt feelings...but if he wins in the election then it will be for keeps...
