    Doesn't go into as much depth as Hauser's, and only focuses on Pacquiao-Mosley being the sham it is. I agree with the following:

    Number one is the only thing Pac is motivated for. Number two is the next best thing. But anything else is not really required from him.

    Pac is fighting 5 more times after mosley, there is plenty of time to make those fights I think.

    Really?!

    When did he say this? If that's the case, then yes, there's more than enough time to make them.

    In other words, "You're not retiring until you give me 6 more fights, I want to make as much money out of you as I can. You will also still have no say on who your opponents are."

    lol at your avatar. :lol: but the thing is, i like dr. evil the character. i could not say the same with arum. pac fans are now defending or at least neutral about the guy but when things go sour a few years from now, they would probably see how arum is leeching pacquiao off. i do not like how arum is milking pacquiao now and how he released in press that he had a guarantee from pac himself that he is fighting until 2013. i hope pac retires soon before he sustains injuries and let arum milk him off for more.

    I don't see many bouts out there that enhance Pacquiao's legacy. If they can't/don't begin negotiations with Mayweather late 2011, early 2012...I don't see why he should be hanging around longer than that.

    floyd only is the bout i want to see win or lose and he can retire. but pac is also cashing-in at least $15M a fight it would be hard for him to stop the lure of money. and yeah, there will be no more legacy enhancing fights left for pac after floyd. not even the winner of 140 will be seen as much bigger victory compared to a cotto or a morales victory.
