    So Pac still hasn't named an opponent. Wants mucho dinero for Marquez, and won't face Bradley unless he gets more money. More trouble in paradise?

    The place that hypes fight.

    He could fight nobody and get no money at all

    Choice is up to him

    On my p4p list I have him at #5 behind May, Martinez, JMM and Ward

    not to mention the fact hes looked terrible in his last 3 outings

    Interesting. If he wants that money, he should fight Money.

    this is what i think


    it's obvious now that the guy thinks he has better things to do other than boxing. He's gotten much more pickier than usual.

    Good to see him standing up for himself. Make Arum his employee, not the other way around.

    Please. How can you rank Sergio above Ward, or Pac? He's riding a trash 3 fight streak, has no depth of resume, about to fight a guy everyone tabbed as a joke till he ran over fringe Andy Lee.

    Pac's 3 terrible fight streak:

    1. Shut out Mosley, dropped him, had him running all night. FMJ or Canelo did better?
    2. Close "loss" to Marquez. Was it any wider than JMM 2, minus the KD? IMO Pac did way better than vs JMM 1, minus the first round.
    3. Wide and easy "win" over p4p undefeated Bradley

    I understand ranking JMM over Pac based on 2, but it was a much much closer fight than Pac Bradley based on reported scorecards. AFAIK there were more draws + Pac than JMM scores. I don't see how it's enough to offset Pac's post SFW resume being 10 times stronger.

    FightHype is a ****ing joke. Ben Thompson writes an anti-Pacquiao article every week. And each time, he mouths his disdain for Pacquiao through "inside sources". Just watch him in any Floyd/Broner video and he just giggles like a little chick at a Bieber concert.
