This is the order of fights I would like to see happen for each fighter: 1. Marquez Marquez - Mayweather: Say what you will about their first fight, but the debate is on about who is the smarter boxer. Furthermore, Marquez added power to his repertoire. The same type of people who bitched about Pac-JMM IV are the same people who would ***** about M-M II. Nonsense, he's top 4 P4P and has earned it. Marquez vs. Broner/Garcia/Rios. Let's see Marquez against some of the young guns to see if he's not just a one shot wonder. I would really like to see him against Broner. Marquez vs. Pacquiao: In my opinion Pacquiao needs this fight more than JMM but JMM owes it to Pacquiao if he's going to keep fighting at an elite level. I would try Mayweather or a young gun before a rematch. I think there's more value in letting this fight marinate to see if Pacquiao isn't permanently shell shocked. Mayweather: Sure Guerrero is legitimate and most likely the next option for Mayweather, but I know for a fact that Marquez/Pacquiao/Martinez would do more business and most likely be better for his career in the long run. Pacquiao: Mayweather first, Marquez second. Any other fight for him dampens his career. He doesn't have too many other options either, even if he gets Rios or Bradley it won't drive him to the top p4p. If Pacquiao wanted to get dangerous he could challenge Broner or a bigger guy like Martinez/Trout. Those fights could get made and they would launch him back to top 5 P4P and force a rematch with Marquez or put pressure on Mayweather. Cotto and Alvarez are out because I think they're interested in fighting each other.
They should all do a round-robin with Bradley and some other fighters thrown in the mix. What I like about this KO is that it dismantled the bipolar dynamic of boxing at the top and made room for more permutations and possibilities.
Floyd should fight two of the four before retiring: Ghost / Canelo / Maravilla / Bradley Marquez should retire. Pac should retire. Neither have anything to prove at this point
Good contribution, we need more one phrase opinions on this forum about which person's favorite fighter is the best in the world. Without people like you, intelligence would once again rear its ugly, awkward head on this beautiful science.
