    everyone here seems unhappy with Pac's opponents unless he fights either Mayweather or Sergio Martinez.

    Martinez is fighting Darren Barker soon and lets say for instance Barker pulls off the upset, does that give Barker a right to fight Pacquiao and would Pacquiao fighting Barker be a cherry pick?

    no pac wont fight him if he is capable of beating martinez he is the best middleweight in the world , chavez would be more likely

    Only if Baker looks bad doing it and he is willing to go down to 151 catchweight for his MW title.

    Considering that barker would need martinez to fall and break his neck on his own stool for this to happen I'll say no. If Barker wins Pac should nor fight him.

    No, that would just make the Chavez Jr fight more credible. Chavez Jr will be promoted as the new middleweight king.

    If Barker win, he should fight Floyd
    If Martinez lose, he will fight Pac

    See the pattern??

    No, he shouldn't. Barker didn't offer Pacquiao to fight him at 154 but Martinez did.

    If Barker beats Martinez that would make Barker a dangrous oppoent. Pacquiao would never fight him. If he did he'd make him fight at 145 for the middleweight championship.

    Barker beating Martinez would be the equivalent of Rahman beating Lewis or something like that in terms of improbability.
