    what do you think their logical next step would be, or what do you wish their next step should be, or both?

    after losing to pacquiao, I dont think it would be wise for him to fight mosley in a rematch. I think a rematch with Margarito would be suitable, if Marg could secure a license in the states. If not, why not stage it in Bayamon? If that wasn't possible, maybe a move up to junior middleweight to challenge light punching cory spinks' for his IBF title? that may be more on the wish side of the equation.

    for Pacquiao, if he were to lose, REMATCH THE FIGHTER WITH WHICH HE IS INEXTRICABLY LINKED, JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ.

    Both fighters if they lose, will get get me over confidence builder fights inside Top Rank to rebuild their confidence and/or their image.

    The thing about both guys is that they have built in fanbases which will only grow with this fight. Miguel could easily spend the next year fighting no names in MSG and make a killing if he loses.

    I think if Cotto loses, he'll get some opponent we've never heard of at 147 (it's like Arum has 100000 of these lying around).

    I think IF Pac loses, He'll jump back to 140 and take on the winner (or perhaps loser) of Bradley/Nate.

    Both fighter have a lot of options if they lose. The loser of this fight can fight the loser of marquez-mayweather fight.

    Pacquiao-can rematch marquez if he loses to mayweather or he can fight mayweather if he loses to marquez.

    Cotto can fight mosley -rematch clottey or fight berto or mayweather(should he lose to marquez)

    The winner obviously has to fight Mayweather or atleast Mosley.

    He definitely would say something like that at the cashier. If it were any normal person you'd tell him to hurry the **** up
