    I agree with the consensus, a couple years ago, Pac. But now, face Martinez or ****in retire, throw away money, go broke, and beat bitches. Enough wasting our time with 'tune ups'....

    Manny, because it would be the highest grossing fight of all time. Martinez does bring as many fans to the table as Manny does.

    Of course, this depends on whether or not Manny gets by Marquez convincingly. Which hasn't happened yet.

    People are already attempting to pull the 'past prime' card in anticipation of a fight early next year so they don't want to give him credit for it.

    Moving up and beating Martinez would be massive, going from being potentially the GOAT at SFW to the undisputed middleweight champion of the World would be some feat.

    Simple - the man he's avoided for the past 3 odd years...

    Martinez has developed as a secondary afterthought, BECAUSE of the refusal to fight Pacqiao - lets NOT lose sight on this

    Mayweather is favoured big time over Pac. If Floyd wants history and legacy it's the Sexy fight.

    Sergio. Floyd would be favored to beat Manny. Against Sergio probably not.

    Beating the Sexy One espicialy at 160 or a catchweight. Even at 154.
    Martinez's size and awkwardness has the potitonal to cause Mayweather Problems.
    Pacquiao is made for Mayweather even if he was still as good as he was or we thought he was back in 2009.

    Pacquiao would do more for Floyd's legacy for the simple fact that history will have Floyd ducking Pacquiao, but history won't have Floyd ducking Sergio as Sergio is a middleweight. If Floyd ever mans up and fights Pacquiao, Pacquiao will close the show in spectacular fashion. Easy fight for a 80-150 million dollar payday and Floyd doesn't know if he's ever going to fight again? Get ****ing real, people. He's ducking. And he's scared.

    It would be PAC....no doubt

    PAC = Floyd health come first.

    Martinez = Floyd willing to die in the ring.

    To anybody voting for Sergio think about it like this.....

    What win did more for Sugar Ray Leonard's legacy, Duran at 147 or Donny Lalonde at SMW?

    Manny is coming off a fight he clearly won over Bradley, a current p4p type guy, he's still an elite fighter and is a true ATG and still a better fighter than Sergio even now.
