    I'd like to see Pac and May fight someone at welterweight who wasn't moving up from light welterweight, ie a big or natural welterweight. And I don't mean guys like Rios who are big and unskilled. Khan, Brook, Porter, Alexander, and Thurman are top welterweights and they deserve their shot against the other top welterweights.

    I also wouldn't mind if Pacquiao fought Maidana just for the comparison to Mayweather. Fighting Alvarez would be very impressive as well.

    Or if he wants to drop down in weight to 140 he could fight a young lion like Danny Garcia, Terence Crawford, Lucas Matthysse, or Adrien Broner.
