    It's up to Pac and whatever he decides to do I won't blame him for it. They're the ones making history lately and the ones with the serious accomplishments and risk. It's enough to say that this is a weight category Mayweather has been used to since 2006 and Pac had two fights in only recently and his body still looks small yet he still obviously wants to make this fight more than Mayweather. Mayweather is just making the result of this fight, if it's in his favor, look bad with all these false accusations.

    No, Pac should go fight Paulie Malignaggi. I'm sure that fight will do big numbers.

    Team PBF played themselves out like the Phillies vs the Yankees. Sad to watch.

    Exactly, which is why Pac is now going to fight Paulie Malignaggi. Yet another superfight for Pacquiao.

    If Pac walks on Team Hypocrite, I personally hope he fights Foreman and gets another belt in a new weight class.

    Malinaggi sucks. But I would enjoy seeing Pac KO him.

    Malignaggi, Foreman? Why not Bradley or the Berto/Mosley winner? Why would Pacquiao ask Mayweather to pay $10 for every lb. he's overweight? That would signal that he was really concerned about how he would fare against someone over 147 lbs. I'm not sure I understand that level of concern when he's supposedly seriously entertaining fighting Foreman at 154.

    PBF @ 147 > Foreman @ 154, I think we can all agree on that one.

    Hey, bring on Bradley! I think SSM beats Berto. That could be a tough matchup for Pac given Shane's strength and mass, but it would make for one heck of a brawl.

    I would rather see him face the Mosley/Berto winner and then Williams. Cotto is broken goods there is no point going down that road. Moving up a weight and fighting Pavlik for a real belt not a mickey mouse one would also be good to see. Let Pac give his fans the excitement of watching him brutalise Malignaggi instead.

    Cotto is more powerful & stronger is my point.... Floyd wont be using his `bigger` physique to beat Manny as Cotto tried, he`ll be using his boxing skills... we both already know this so showing me someone`s height & reach stats aint doing ****, we both know that too.

    I agree. I'm just confused as to why Malignaggi is the backup plan. This testing thing has been a part of the contract for a while now. Roach said they welcomed all testing. Then all of a sudden that huge weight penalty clause was introduced and Floyd accepted. Curiously, after that happened, Team Pac had an issue with the blood testing. Then when Team Mayweather gave in to their demands, they changed their demands, started threatening to sue, and then started talking about fighting Paulie. Paulie brings nothing to the table. This is a very curious move by Pacquiao.

    pac fans are so scared for this fight to take place.

    This fight will be signed and pac will lose.

    Get use to that idea.
