    Yea I have a feeling Hatton is his next fight, esp. considering both fighters are just comming off pretty good wins.

    Ricky Hatton.. Then after that, maybe a possible bout with Mayweather and third fight with Marquez..

    Hatton and then set up for JMM to come and challenge Manny for the 140 lbs belt for a cherry on top.

    I'm not a fan of the Floyd V Pman angle at all. If Floyd comes back it should be to fight AM, Cotto or PW.

    Hatton, of course. Then, floyd, if he is man enough to fight someone as good as Pac.

    The poll is overwhelmingly one-sided for Hatton which is the most logical opponent. It's been stated that Pac no longer wishes to continue at 135 and will be moving to 140. I'm sure after his dismantling of Oscar that he will at least consider a permanent move to 147 but a fight against Hatton in front of 100,000 people in Wembley for another title would be the smartest move.

    If and when he beats Hatton I'm sure Mayweather will be blowing up Arum's phone; if he hasn't started already. :yep

    Hatton versus Pac at Wembley 100,000 fans......that sounds good. I would have to put Pac at favourite, the guy is simply amazing, but by no means will it be a formality (as some ppl here are already jumping the gun), Hatton at 140 can beat him.

    Though i would love to see FM fight Pac and even tho i am not a fan of FM i feel he would beat Pac. Either way Pac is a legend, one of the greats and all the best to him.

    Hatton, then the winner of JMM-Valero (who should duke it out to earn the shot).

    What the hell is Humberto Soto's name doing in there? At this point in his career, Pac shuold not waste time on guys like him.

    Yep agree with you 100% this is the smartest route Pacman could take right now. Hatton is very beatable for Pacman and that will be a big money fight for him as well. Not to mention increase his popularity in Europe possibly. This all sets him up for a HUGE fight vs PBF. Even has the little gauntlet storyline for those snake promoters. "BOTH HAVE BEATEN DLH AND HATTON WHO WILL WIN WHEN THEY FINALLY MEET" etc.

    Facing JMM is prolly the worst move he could do imo. Its a fight he could possibly lose and it wont make him nearly as much money or set up a fight with PBF nearly as well either.

    I really want to see Pac vs Mayweather. Hatton is an ugly fighter and that fight doesn't look too appealing.
