    Suppose Pacquaio-Mayweather never happens because of blah,blah,blah. Pacquaio retires with a fight against Bradley. Will that be satisfactory?

    If Mayweather never fights Pac, Pac is still ATG with a win over Bradley and retires as #1 P4P (if he wins all his remaining fights that is)

    pacquiao has already far exceeded what was expected of him. a little more than 3 years ago, if you would say that pac should fight floyd and the other WWs, it was seen as a joke. now that pac has beat most of the established welters, he can retire now and few people would ask more from him. in fact, floyd needs more the pacquiao fight for his legacy than pacquiao needs floyd.

    I think Pacman could retire now and it would be satisfactory. As far as never fighting Mayweather goes a fight with Mayweather is the one thing that will tarnish his legacy since it is such a one sided fight in favor of Mayweather.

    I want to see Pacman fight Bradley. I think it is a great matchup. Would be more entertaining than seeing Mayweather dominate Pacman. Of course it wouldn't have the hype and the exposure that Mayweather/Pacman would but I still has it is a more even matchup.

    Hes had a great career.
    I however have absolutely ZERO interest in seeing him fight Bradley.

    I don't know that either would reach their full potential without beating the other, no matter how much they've done (both have done very well for themselves), there will be a lot of attention on what they didn't do which was beat the other.

    "Either?" "They?" We're just talking about Pacquiao here.

    Sometimes it doesn't matter when a guy didn't fight this guy. Lewis didn't fight Bowe, didn't offer Vitali a rematch etc. But Lewis is more known for dominating HW in the 90s and beating Tyson even (no matter how shot to **** he was), not who he *didn't* fight.

    I would love his last fight to be against Sergio at 154.
    Win or lose that's the best way to hang his gloves outside of FMJ.

    Make it 155. So he's a super controversial 9-division champ and 5-time lineal if Pac wins LOLOL

    If he retires after Marquez his career would be soild, but if he was to take on the green unproven Bradley history may view him as a cherry picker.

    If you're a hater, Pac will always be a cherrypicker unless he fights Mayweather or Martinez

    If you're a *******/applying ***** logic, Pac takes on a "young undefeated hungry black lion":-(
