    I think he should fight guzman,he's still undefeated and the most similar style to floyds he is going to find. but he'll follow the same he has been doing by fighting humberto soto a guy that will come right at him,and Mexican,:think to have plenty of ratings for HBO.:yep

    What the **** has Guzman done to deserve a shot at Pac? he came in overweight against nate, then played sick and refused to fight him, and now, Guzman turned down a fight with Judah.

    **** Guzman, he can rot for all I care. The guy doesn't deserve the shot purely on principle.

    Seriously i don't see the importance, or how ''good'' this Guzman clown is.

    He's not even that impressive, i've seen his HL in youtube, nothing special.

    I would LOVE to see that fight. Both guys would just meet in the center of the ring and throw bombs til there's only one guy standing. Big power, great technique, tons of heart from both corners. You can sell the hell out of that fight too. Soto beat up Manny's brother.

    Who wouldn't want to see this??

    To me this shows just how smart Roach is..He knows that Pac is due a bad or off night, if that happens you sure in the **** dont want it to come while he is in the ring with the likes of Cotto, JMM or someone of that level..

    Note I didnt say Floyd cuz that fight isnt going to happen no matter what.

    i pick pac against any 140lber and down south to win, bradley, malignaggi, holt, torres based on what i saw in their last fights and on pac's last fight, pac would beat the **** out of them. Bradley is a good tune up though cause he holds 2 belts atm(or maybe just 1, cause i remember him being stripped)

    If he plans to fight floyd at a catchweight of 143 just like how floyd is fighting marquez at a catchweight, then i suggest guys like collazo or quintana

    He's too wide and slow for pac-man. Bradley if he fights a proper fight could upset manny, but I doubt it. Holt probably hits harder than pac,
    but isn't as active or as fast. Pac stops valero and ud's bradley.

    Bradley, he is in the right division and is an undefeated champ.

    quintana's up at 54 nowadays. i say berto.
    perfect test. small welter with speed and
    accuracy. power but not too much power.
    and a belt holder to boot.

    I would stay away from Holt and Torres, they have great one shot power. Maggs would be a great fight..Maggs would give pac some rounds and kinda give him an idea of what it would be like to face Floyd even though I doubt a fight between Floyd and Pac will ever happen.
