No Pac but Bradley/Marquez instead? 140 or 147?

    I see this as a likely scenario. IF Pac even fights again. If he isn't going to do this full time, he isn't gonna be the same fighter.

    Welp I'm all for it, i think that would change things up a bit and take the sour off the past 2 controversial decisions

    Paq gets winner ? Wtf I see it as paq should need to figh his way into contention. Back to back terrible performances drop him from my p4p list and he hasn't ever fought his way to a real WW championship. I think it's time paq has to fight the top fighters or at least one of the real top fighters in his division.

    Last time he took on the best was at what 130 1st jmm fight. Forget if that was 130 or 126

    Point is, I think this sells better right now and gives Marquez the chance at what many feel should have been HIS title anyhow. Personally, I hope Manny just says he can't do both jobs and quits boxing at this point. I didn't like what I DIDN'T see from him in that fight. 12 full rounds of effort.

    You swayed me. I agree with you completely. What I didnt see from paq was worse than what I did see if that makes any sense

    M;an, it's okay with me but it has to go down to a catchweight below 147 cause you want to see these guys display at their best physical condition and Marquez can't put more than 142 and perform lightly on his feet, he needs to be on the ball on his feet and not planted.

    I'd love to see that fight as long as it wasn't tied to a Pac rematch. Marquez already beat him, Bradley already lost to him. If they were guaranteed the winner of Pac-May or something, it would sit better with me.

    That's a pretty good fight. Makes more sense really. Pac could get the winner and/or retire.

    More I think about this the more I like Bradley/Marquez. 140 best weight for it?

    ****, if Pac had to work his axe back down to 140 he might be in shape to make me interested in him fighting the winner.

    I'd prefer this at 140 to take the 'Pac element' out of it entirely.
