    screw it

    lets settle the Guzman garbage already

    purse split 95-5 for Pacman and have the fight in Manila

    Guzman will have to fight and knockout Pacman to win

    Bradley would make sense but I've got a hunch that Roach and Pac wouldn't mind getting their hands on a belt at 47. The guy that would make sense in that scenario would be Berto because not only he he considered the weakest of all the belt holders at welter, he can actually get down to 143. :think

    I want Pac to fight in a tune-up fight in Manila this summer before he retires.

    Timothy Bradley would be the perfect tune up opoent for Pacquiao
    1. Pacquiao should beat him
    2. Bradley is not a puncher so there is not as much risk in getting hurt.
    3. He has a belt (WBO)

    best news I've heard. the hatton fight was a walk in the park. Pac needs to defend his crown at 140!!

    They would never ever put him in with Guzman LOL. Guzman is too slick a fighter and would make Manny look sloppy lol. No, on a real I think you have a very valid point.

    Pacquiao would kill Valero, I dont rate this overhyped fighter, he almost got KO'ed by Mosquera. Too much hype over Valero, he has done nothing but KO cans apart from Mosquera who put up a decent fight.

    Judah would make sense or Bradley but I think Pac would solve Bradley and win a decision

    Excellent choice, an easy fight should be considered after the major fights Pac has been in. Just a stay active decent fight then shoot for the winner of Mayweather/Marquez. Bradley is a better fight than Valero, I think Bradley would at least be able to take Pac a few rounds, Valero would get starched within 3.

    anyone who thinks Valero would last more than 3 minutes against Pac needs to watch this video

    not even the whole video, just watch the first 3 or 4 minutes
