    Right now?

    Guzman or JMM

    Though Old Nate Campbell may be someone to be left alone.

    no chance for Pacquiao losing at this point in his career ... I think that Diaz would be his toughest test despite anything going against pacquiao ... his chin is granite and his speed is far superior than any fighter under 140 lbs ... I dont think that he should fight above 135 but thats just me ... he's taking a big risk by fighting at that weight but his speed, despite how much it deminishes going up to lightweight would be far better than any lightweight. He's a power puncher and his power will show ...

    he's just so damn fast ... naturally ... i don't get it ... its better than Calzaghe's, Jones', and Mayweathers ... as far as hand speed.

    Guzman's, Valero's, and Diaz' chin hasn' been tested ... Diaz shown a weakness for fighters with speed (ex. Kendall Holt)

    Guzman

    He made Humberto Soto's punches look like they couldnt hurt a fly, if Soto couldnt hurt Guzman I see no way Pac doing so.

    Guzman's chin has been tested a number of times.

    guzman and another jmm(which this time he should win convincingly)

    those 2 wins alone could put him in top 50 ATG

    guzman is tough to catch when he's running after slapping.

    pac will have a hard time

    Who has Guzman fought?

    Casamayor would be the toughest for Manny. A classy, semi-dirty and clever fight.

    Guzman, Juan Diaz, and a motivated/focused Campbell would all give Pac hell and dominate him. JMM beat him already IMO and a third fight would be 50/50 depending on how declined they are. Gamboa could realistically beat him, but he still needs to answer questions about himself. As for the others on the list, Pac would destroy them.

    Freddy Roach keeps talking about JMM, Diaz1, Diaz2, Valero, Hatton and even DLH.

    There's only one boxer who he's avoid to speak of or telling Boss Arum to avoid at ALL COSTS: Joan Guzman.

    I believe what Roach says. So I voted on Guzman.
