    I would take marquez out of that list. If pac goes up as high as 160 then comes back down to 147 then go back to 135. That's too much weight to be gaining and losing. Pac has no reason to fight marquez if he fights martinez @ 160 and beats him.

    As far as im concern if pac beats martinez then he can retire.

    Ortiz will be the man to stop Pac @ 147 and he will do it in a brutal fashion.....mark my words.:yep

    He has threats

    he seems to be slowing

    if he is declining Mayweather can be a threat, bradley can be a problem, Williams, Cintron, Martinez, a Cotto rematch could all be interesting

    :lol::lol: i actually like to see this fight more than pac-marquez 3. Ortiz is young-strong and not past prime:lol: It would be nice to shut up the haters who claims pac only fight past prime or old boxers.

    Martinez, Williams, Ortiz, Khan, Mayweather

    all good opponents unlike his last 3 and soon to be last 4.

    I wanna see him in with a young and fast fighter but I dont know if Ortiz is the answer

    common wisdom says a jabber Ortiz is not, a right hand he is a southpaw and he is not a counter puncher

    interesting though because he is a lefty and manny doesnt normally fight leftys

    he is a pressure fighter with speed

    however i think he is a KO waiting to happen comes in straight ahead very predictable and I think Manny eats him for lunch I see a KO

    the 2 times Berto got his legs under him planted and fired he dropped Ortiz

    I see Manny landing that left and dropping him

    I'd rather see Bradley but that is just me

    PW and Martinez are middleweights. Floyd is on permanent vacation.

    Khan is a sparring partner. I would love to see pac-ortiz.

    Not a bad idea, I like Martinez as Pac's last fight, even if he lose it will not hurt his legacy, it is a win win situation.

    At 160 would be crazy. If they fight it should be at 154.

    ortiz, bradley, jmm, floyd <-- all worthwhile fights at 147

    cotto, alvarez, cintron, williams (williams is more to do with his WW legacy) <-- all worthwhile fights at 154

    martinez <-- the only man i9 feel can offer pac a competitive fight and that's at 160.

    so no he hasn't.

    @ 154 i could see only williams giving him problems since he is 6-1 and has long reach. Alvarez and Cintron is an easy target. Pac would beat them bad. I do give them a puncher's chance especially cintron but i could see cintron quitting against pac:lol:

    Would love to see pac vs ortiz or bradley. floyd is on permanent vacation.

    Martinez would be his toughest fight especially if he has to go up to 160.

    i think a williams fight would be good for his WW legacy cos then only Floyd would be left standing from the days of shane, cotto, clottey, margo and williams.

    ortiz is my preference because he's the only prime opponent left in his weight class.

    definitely martinez for toughest. a victory over martinez would be sensational. Flyweight - Middleweight.

    yea i would love to see ortiz-pac fight happen. PAc-williams would be nice, it would be a tough fight for pac with pw height and reach advantage. Good thing PW doesn't used his height advantage all the time:lol:

    Ortiz - agree!
    Mayweather - I like that to happen but Mayweather needs to find his balls first before he fights Pac.
    Pacquio to fight at 154?!
