Pacquaio should unify the titles at WW – Discuss

He could beat a good but raw Ortiz? Really? He could beat some Eurobums? Man, you are telling it how it is.

 

He won't. Expect big money fights against Bradley, Marquez and whoever should make financial sense at that time.

 

what could happen is berto beating zaveck then facing ortiz for a rematch and the winner fights pac. then unifying the division after that becomes tempting.

 

pac will only fight top rank fighters, or anyone out of contract with their current employers.

 

As of right now yes. However, Arum has made it clear what Golden Boy need to do if they want to work with them again, atleast with his top fighters. He's said in his latest interview they are looking at getting Vanes Martirosyan a title shot either against Saul Alvarez or Dzinziruk before the end of the year, that suggests he is open to working with them again

 

He probably should.

Be he won't.

 

3 easy knockouts for him. Hes above titles now,marquez and mayweather the only possible and worthy opponents left for him tbh.

Martinez should unify titles seen as opponents arent there for him to test him.

 

Seriously? Pac is down to the final 2-3 fights of his career and you want him to fight bums?

Let me repeat that, we are looking at the final 2-3 fights of Pac before he hangs his gloves completely and you want nobodies to fight him?

I would only be interested in two fights and nothing more:
1. Mayweather Jr at 147
2. Martinez at 154 (160 is hilarious)

Everything else would simply turn out to be a Hatton fight (quickly over) or a Clottey fight (opponent on complete defense).

 

Yeah but the chances of both those fights happening right now are slim to none.

 

If only GBP apologies.

 

I always thought that is the plan after he fight with Mayweather. The reason Manny is campaigning at 147 is because of Mayweather. They said that a long time ago they skipped weights because they are targeting Floyd. Once the Floyd business is over he'll go down to 140 for good, not before.

 

He should fight middleweights at a catchweight of 155

 

That would be great for fight fans, but Ole' Bob won't take the risk and can easily hide behind the "they don't bring fans or money to the table" argument. I hate that because Pacquaio no longer needs a viable name opponent to sell 1 million ppv's and sell-out an arena. I'd just like to see him fight someone younger than himself (not including the brick damaged cotto who is like 38 in boxing years.

Victor Ortiz, Timothy Bradley, Andre Berto...then I'm ready to say Pac is an ATG.
