    if the fight with Floyd still didn't happen.

    Shane Mosley

    Advantages

    • A new name to add in Pacquiao's resume.

    • A Hall of Famer.

    • Will possibly make the most amount of money compared with the other 2 possible opponents.
    Disadvantages

    • Way past his best and to a point shot. Didn't look good on 3 of his last 4 fights.
    Andre Berto

    Advantages

    • Young and undefeated.

    • A title holder. Unification bout of the WBC and WBO welterweight belts.
    Disadvantages

    • Still green and relatively unproven.

    • Poor draw. Will make the least amount of money compared with the other 2 possible opponents.
    Juan Manuel Marquez

    Advantages

    • The most deserving of the 3.

    • Will finish the trilogy.
    Disadvantages

    • Pacquiao already holds an official win over him.

    • To get the most amount of credit, Pacquiao needs to drop the 140. If they fought at 140, Pacquiao will forgo his WBO welterweight belt which will limit a possible unification with Berto later that year if the fight with Floyd still didn't happen.

    • Probably not quite make as much money compared with a possible fight with Mosley.

    Fight Marquez. He brings in a Mexican fanbase that the other two guys don't have.

    He don't want it with Marquez. He knows his recent opposition has been handpicked to cast an illusion by making him look very good. He's worried that Marquez tools will still trouble him, even though he'll win.

    No way Man. David Diaz was basically a better version of JMM and and Pac destroyed him.

    Pac for life!!

    mid-December on Pac's b-day.

    Mosley, Berto or JMM should also consider going. :good

    I don't really see the point. JMM gave him trouble stylewise. This is a proven fact. But it does not in anyway diminish the greatness of Pac or put to doubt the 8 division title he already got.

    would haters give credit if pac beats marquez and shane ? they'll say nah because both were beaten by floydie but at the end of the day it still boils down to PAC vs MAY area of discussion battle for greatness so i say go for floyd instead its like also beating JMM and SSM if pac wins over him.
    That would be the advantage of beating floyd , furthermore that would stop critics from discrediting Pac. So come out come out wherever you are..........give us that fight we want !!!

    DO they get to have a say in it then? I though Arum selected it and they just dealt with it.
