    Well for me, if Pac doesn't fight Vitaly or Wladimir, he will for ever be a ducker in my book! Damn Pac picking on Mosley, Margarito, Cotto, Clottey, Hatton, ODLH and Mayweather! Who does he think he is picking on those guys? I say either K brother vs Pac or he will for ever be a ducker!

    Both are better fighters than Hatton, Clottey and Margarito, though.

    P4P JMM is, but he's not proven above 135lbs+ and he would not defeat Clottey or Margarito. A Hatton fight at 140lbs possibly though.

    Mosley is a completely different style than Margarito, so yeah.

    Delahoya pick pacquaio:nono
    Hatton was #1 @ 140
    Cotto was the WBO champ and # 2 wleterweight at the time
    Clottey and margarito only happen because of mayweather new testing and going on vacation.

    Pac fought
    Cotto # 2 welterweight at the time
    Clottey # 4 welterweight at the time
    Margarito only happen cuz floyd went on vacation
    Mosley # 5 right now

    Berto might be signing with top rank so a pac-berto match up could be next.

    I mean how could you be cherry picking when your fighting the top 5 boxers in your division?:patsch:lol:

    For JMM, I meant P4P, legacy wise, etc. I don't know if he would beat Clottey or Margarito H2H. He could possibly out box both. But, he would not stop either of them, and may get stopped. Just because he was shut out by Floyd does not mean these flat footed, lesser skilled fighters would have the same success. But, 135 is clearly a more natural weight for him, at this stage of his career.

    Yes. I'd pick JMM for a clear points win over all three...assuming the Hatton fight would be at 140, the Margarito fight be at a C/W of 145, and the Clottey fight can be at the WW limit, provided he gorges himself with banku and okro stew (resulting in a case of the shits) before the bout. ;)

    I won't get into the Mayweather vs Pac thing.

    Him fighting Campbell over Diaz has more to do with Nate's style of fighting rather then what his rank was.

    As for Mosley, I understand why they didn't fight Mosley at that time. I have said that many times, but at the same time when people start to claim things about Pac. Lets not act like Roach didn't avoid Mosley because he was a tougher challenge at the time. And the only reason why this matters is because Mosley showed up personally at Roach's gym to issue the challenge twice.

    Steward isnt far from the truth at times

    but thats modern boxing in general inactive guys with more weights more belts and more paper belts

    in all honesty though who can Manny fight that isnt Floyd who hed get credit for the stars at 140 are good fights but wed say he should fight 147 guys

    at 147 we say shane is too old and berto too green

    at 154 there isnt really anybody there who any one would wanna see

    at 160 martinez and sturm but thatll never happen
