    It would be good for his career, he could work his way back up fighting on some undercards to build his rank.

    Manny Pacquiao is 1-2 in his last 3 fights. Hasnt won a fight since November 2011. And hasnt won a fight convincingly since May 2011.

    Thats 2 losses in the last year alone. and suffered one of the most crushing defeats in the history of our sport.

    Mayweather is the WBC Welterweight Champion, WBA Super Welterweight Chamption WBC Super Welterweight Champion, WBC Super Diamond Champion, # 1 Ranked Jr Middleweeight #1 ranked Welterweight and #1 P4P in the world.

    Pacquiao is #6 P4P with no belts in any weight class.

    I think he should fight with Mayweather promotions to get his confidence back up, and then maybe he can get a shot at Floyd.

    Im just not sure he deserves one now. He's not the mandatory, no belts, isnt coming off any big win. He should sign and fight on an undercard against Mickey Bey. Then work his way back up

    What do you guys think?

    When he & Floyd fight there should be a 75-25 split, and 20% of PPV goes to Pacquiao.

    you might as well ask Wlad to join Hayemaker Promotions, it would be good and lucrative for his career

    Fight on undercards? yet Broner headlines PPV's?

    In in buisness stand point I dont think TMT has the experience or the pull to draw a huge name like Pac. Im sure manager's, accountants & advisors would all advise against joining TMT.

    However I do think it would be a great idea if Golden Boy/Showtime bought pac out of his contract with TR, then pac joined GB & then had him fight Lucas, Garcia to build momentum & hype to create Pac vs Floyd.

    Wlad is bigger than Haye though and higher ranked. That wouldnt make sense. That would be like Floyd signing to a Pacquiao promotion. It just doesnt make sense business wise.

    Pac would need to ask his promoter, Bap Arum for permission to join The Maricon Team

    Just imagine if Bob Arum for some reason decided to no longer manage TR. Boxing would be such a happier place.

    Why TMT, what notable PPV fights have they put on for a name as big as Pac's?

    If anything he would sign with GB or pull a Cotto and do a one by one fight deal.

    Floyd's undercards rarely make over 1.5 million for the main undercard. The Garcia Matthysse one cost nearly 3.6 million after PPV shares and that was considered on of the most expensive chief support in recent times. Explain to me how it would be lucrative for manny to fight on a Floyd show when he's getting over 10 million for fighting Rios
