    You were a welterweight back at 2007 to 2009 and you have a good career, all roads now goes to Manny Pacquiao.. Would you fight him during his prime years? :think Or duck him and fight him later? :think

    Matthysse, Garcia,Khan,Alexander,Broner,Maidana,Thurman,Cano,Molina,
    Not saying that all these guys are the best but one thing is for sure, MANNY WILL NOT FIGHT ANY OF THEM WHILE HE IS WITH TOP RANK!

    Let's put things into perspective here..

    Oscar was coming from a close contest against Floyd..

    Hatton was coming off from a morale boosting performance when he beat Malignaggi in one of the worst way possible, by walking him down to a stoppage.. Let's remember, Cotto failed and Broner can't..

    Cotto was coming off a win against Clottey..

    Well, Bradley had his shot.. Why? Because he really wanted it.. It's that simple.. Pacquioa is the draw and not them.. Bradley did the right thing, he went to TR..

    He did the right thing? Bradley has 2 options after Marquez ,rematch with pac or rematch with Provodnikov. Who can Manny fight after Rios. Only rematches: JMM or Bradley. Top rank does not have any one else at 147. or he can have more freebies like rios.:patsch
    Top rank home of the rematch!!!!
     
  11. Well first I would say health comes first

    Then offer a flat fee to fight Pac

    Then just end up ducking anyway

    Let Marquez fight him in his 'prime' and then end his 'prime'
