    There's no way to know if Pac will be the same after this match, that was some career ending shiet right there.

    If I was his manager, I'd pick an easy fight, probably some washed up guy with a name to test the waters, if Pac wins in impressive fashion and feels ok, he could move up to better opponents, if he still struggles, then it's goodbye for him and he can go with a victory

    but that's just me. Maybe some of you would like to see him fighting Martinez next and getting crippled or something

    your thoughts?:think

    I thought Manny looked quite good before he got KO'd. He got too reckless and careless lunging in with his hands low like that.

    I think if his punch resistance hasn't been totally robbed from him and he comes back with similar head/upper body movement that he showed in the early rounds against Marquez, and also continues to improve his physical conditioning (he looked better in that regard vs. Marquez than he did in his last couple of fights), I think he could easily take on Bradley and avenge that "loss." If he looks good there, then that would build interest in fighting Marquez again. There's no way Bradley can knock him out, so that's what I'd do next.

    chuck him in with a come forward fighter who only knows how to fight exactly how manny likes em (BAM BAM RIOS!!!).

    this fight will show us just how declined pacquiao is, if he wins it would most likely be dominant and lead for his last fight against mayweather

    As limited as Bam Bam can be, I'd be hesitant to put Pac against a dangerous puncher like him at this point

    It'd be like Pac-Margarito II and Pac himself admitted that nobody had him hurt like Margo did before (ofc that opinion must have changed this saturday)

    For me there's only one place that makes sense - 140. I voted for Rios instead of Garcia because Rios vs Pac is obviously fireworks for however long it lasts. But either guy at 140 would be acceptable. I would even add Broner to that list. Either go this route or fight Floyd for peanuts or retire. Any other choice sounds lame.

    first he needs to drop everything he's doing and focus on boxing. boxing alone like he was doing before.

    then a tune up fight with Tim Bradley. if he wins either a JMM5, or FMJ, late 2013.
