    Not sure Pac wants that, at this stage of his career.

    Maybe if Pacquiao was to go to the UK, they could put it on in a soccer stadium, and sell it on his name

    Pacquiao is the money fight.

    With Pacman not really able to sell much PPV's in the US anymore I don't see why he wouldn't come to the UK for a big payday. Brook v Pacquiao over here would sell out an arena no probs and would do 400k+ on PPV

    Absolutely. But I think Brook is probably Pac's backup plan, he'd rather lure Floyd in for another massive payday and (most likely) another L.

    Both Spence and brook annihilate pac and leave him face or back down lights completely out, or ref stops the abuse because we know roach would let pac die in that ring

    If it's money he's after he should pursue Khan. It's an easier fight for him to win imo, then go straight into a spence fight after. Pac looks like he's trying to entice Floyd into a rematch some how.

    This fight is years too late. Pac should have fought Brook instead of Rios, Algieri, Vargas, or Bradley the third time. I don't think Pac has enough to beat him anymore. Brook is bigger, stronger, younger, and probably faster now that Pac has aged and slowed down. I'd rather see Brook test Spence, but I would watch Brook vs Pac.

    Eh! Where are you getting that from. Kell will fight Spence. He is just making Bob Arum and Pacquiao aware that if they want a unification fight he is ready.

    If they don't then Kell fights Spence. Kell won't just give up the belt for no reward.

    Gonna take something big like Pacquiao or Amir Khan

    Brook probably beats Pacquiao relatively easy at this point (I say "relatively" based on other opponents' success). Looks like Brook is cashing out. He fights Golovkin for big money, then passes on Spence for Pacquiao, the easier yet more rewarding option.

    This is cherry-picking by definition. Agree? Disagree?

    how about elimination for thurman, brook, and spence for pac fight. meanwhile, let pac go down near his natural size weight class and have an exhibition with Lomachenco.

    It is a smart choice and the fight should happen. Manny needs to fight one of these young guys and maybe that propels them to stardom the way beating Oscar did for him. Only problem is Manny at this point is far more formidable than Oscar was.

    Pac even at this stage is equal in popularity with canelo. I don't think he will fight in England as the opponent.
