    I dont see Mayweather dropping the drug testing demands, so a third Marquez fight I believe is likely for Pacquiao.

    Marquez wants it, and he's likely not to demand Pacquiao do the random drug tests.


    I will say this, if this fight starts to get talked about between the camps and Freddie Roach mentions that Pacquiao is now a full Welter, for you *******s out there who are clueless, thats code for "we dont want any part of Marquez, if he wants to fight us, he'll fight Manny fully roided at 147 lbs!


    If this fight should happen, there is no reason why it should not be at 140 lbs.

    I still think it will be Mayweather, simply too much money in that fight for some sort of agreement not to be worked out. But, if things don't get worked out then I expect it to be Margartio, if he gets his liscense back. Pacquaio-Clottey made money at the box office and on ppv. Margarito atleast brings some sort of fan base with Mexicans. CLottey brought nothing to the table financially. Pac-Margartio in Dallas seems like another money maker that Arum can keep in house.

    JMM is probably the third choice. Arum doesn't promote JMM so that can swing things more to Margarito as a choice. But make no doubt it, Mayweather is the real money fight for Pacquaio and if something can be done about the drug issue than that fight probably happens later this year.

    Lolz yep set at welterweight limit. Also, I do recall Marquez stating before the Clottey fight was set that Pac indeed would have to take tests in order to fight him. Not sure if this was intended to back Pac into a corner though.

    Secondly, if Pac fights Mosley in the event that Mayweather defeats him (Mosley), then a lot of people are gonna ride his ass again for taking on Mays leftovers, and that Shane is even more old/softened up.

    Arum's preference:

    1) Badly damaged, slow, no-defense felon Margarito
    2) Old, bloated Marquez
    2.5) Everybody else outside of Mayweather
    3) Floyd Mayweather

    Who he SHOULD fight:
    1) Mayweather/Mosley winner
    2) Mayweather/Mosley loser - if it's a respectable fight, both are still top 3 P4P
    3) Bradley/Alexander, Alex being the tougher fight.


    Margarito is a disgraceful stiff.
    Marquez has no business fighting Pac above 130, especially at this age.

    I realize there's a rematch clause but if Shane loses to Floyd I don't see why he should still not be named as a contender for Pac. If Pac will fight Margo, why won't he fight Yuri Foreman? They are the same damn height. I'm sick of this cherry picking ****. I mean if you are arguably the best fighter in the world then you should feel nobody can defeat you. It's not like we're expecting Pac to fight the Klitschko bros. You mean to tell me Margarito is more deserving than Tim Bradley?? GTFO.

    This is more of a respectable list:

    1. Floyd
    2. Shane
    3. Bradley
    4. JMM
    5. P. Williams

    Honorable mention: Berto, Alexander, Cintron (if he can make 147)
