    After Mosley, Pacquiao is running out of opponents.
    Not Marquez again who can't fight at 140-147, Floyd
    is scared and on vacation and is waiting for Pac to lose or retire.
    If Pac can't fight Floyd in 2011, he should fight one or two more,
    and then retire. Berto, perhaps. After this, He's got nothing more
    to prove as his place in boxing history is assured.

    berto,marquez,cotto 2, bradley/alexander,floyd. If he fights marquez 140,berto 147, bradley 147 he can retire in 2012 for all I care. thats fine.

    Sergio Martinez at middleweight for the 9th weight world title to cement his immortality.

    That's overstretching the former flyweight, bro. I don't think he will fight in that weight.

    ...or entering the super6:happy

    seriously, pac's limit is at 147. and unless Floyd never truly ever forever fight pac, there's no one else that can beat the pacman. berto, bradley, alexander? Pac would beat the **** outta those guys. He'd better retire and serve Sarangani.. (unless floyd comes out or re-re-retirement and fight pac at december 2012)

    Hell, take a fight with sergio for middleweight titles.

    Sergio said he can go down to 156. Pac will fight still at 146.

    This really is a no-lose situation to Pac.

    A loss means he has reached his limit and he was fighting a naturally bigger and similarly talented man.

    A win means he is a boxing god.

    Why not?

    Cmon, with Bob Arum Pacquiao will never run out of opponents, hell always find a way to overhype an opponent, theres always Cotto II probably late this year, since hes protecting Cotto from Berto and Martinez.

    thats because he wants to make a big fight with cotto vs margarito.
    If margarito wins we will not see marg vs pac again, marg vs clottey/mosley is more likely.
    If cotto wins I woudl rather have him face martinez then pacquiao again.

    (doesn't include Williams, Martinez or other 154's that just wouldn't happen such as Cintron or Angulo)
    The next guys he needs to be fighting:
    Mayweather
    Marquez III
    Bradley / Alexander
    Berto
    (drop-off to guys that would still be more than acceptable)
    Alvarez
    Ortiz
    Jones
    Cotto II
    Senchenko
    Zaveck

    Personaly for me i'd like him againt the young up and comers. as appossed to the oldies.

    So Bradley, Alexander, Berto for me. Or the ultimate tests - Martinez or Williams at a higher weight

    There are plenty of options. Its only because they want every fight to be a massive pay per view event. Then sure there aren't going to be many.
