    If Floyd is unavailable to make the biggest payday in the history of boxing for the second consecutive year, he should be forced to change his nickname from "Money" to something more appropriate.

    There is a limit even for Pacquiao. martinez is too big...he struggles to make 160. That fight is a bit outside of reality. Berto would be fun while it lasted, but he was outclasses by Collazo and given a generous decision. It seems that Marquez at a catch weight of 144 or 145 would be the way to go. It will make money from the Philippines, Mexico, and the US, both fighters are household names for casual boxing fans, and it is the lowest risk for the highest reward for Pacquiao. Above 135 at 37 is a dangerous scenario for Marquez.

    Berto. Nobody else to fight. Marquez at 147 is not good

    but if the sergio fight is impossible, marquez at 140 is better than fighting berto at 147.

    pac should not take the fight above 140.

    Honestly, Mosley would be the best bet.
    w/Berto playing the B-side.

    love to see pac-martinez at 147. both sides have shown green light! size isn't a problem, guys!
    look at tyson, chris bird-vitali, roy jones-ruiz, and many other samples.

    Chavez Jr at 154/150 fits his current pattern.
