    The best fights in your opinion:

    Mine: (not incl. Floyd)

    1. Cotto rematch @ 154
    2. Canelo @154
    3. Keith Thurman @147
    4. Amir Khan @ 147
    5. Winner of Porter/ Brook

    Algieri isn't even in my top 10 for Pac and the public seem to hate this fight...so why isn't Pac fighting one of these guys? Arum said he would fight Sergio... so why not Cotto at 154? Why does Manny get a pass?

    Void is the fight everyone wants to see, but Void is too afraid...................Golovkin at 154, but again, Void is afraid.................

    Pacs on his retirement tour. He's not fighting canelo or cotto, ever. He's milking his name in Macau and getting paid. He's been through wars, he's got nothing left to prove.

    pac ain't fighting above 147. he only weighed 150 on fight night on his last fight. crawford at lightweight was 150 on fight night against gamboa.

    if k brook wins, it's a fight that pac/tr should pursue (u k ppv). if porter wins, he also needs to be pursued. i don't think it will happen though. haymon and showtime will save him and khan for floyd.

    tr inquired khan's availability, no response.

    thurman...he needs a big win to be considered but since he's with haymon again, they will save him for floyd or maybe canelo.

    k brook will probly be their first choice if he wins (if not floyd or jmm)

    then... probly be one of these 4 (vargas, provo, abregu, crawford), whoever gets the biggest win.

    Arum has given up on pac and will be happy to serve him as a circus-type attraction in Macau vs mediocre opponents until their current contract expires.

    He should just retire if his heart isn't in it anymore, he's had a great career. See what he does after Algieri though.

    Would like to him fight thurman, khan, porter, garcia, matthyse

    Signing on with Top Rank limits his options most top welters are linked with Al Haymon who Arum doesn't work with and vice versa.

    Fighting Cotto at 154 would be insane when he can fight him at 156 and scoop up his middleweight title.
