    The choice was Floyd but we all know what happened there(quack) any other fight other than that would always be a disappointment.

    Marquez already beat Pac's ass twice.

    When Margarito (with his shoes on) stands side by side with Pacquiao on their promotional tour, people will realize that this is going to be a fight.

    Marquez just can't make 140 well, in my eyes. and i doubt pac can cut to 135 or even 40 comfortably, so...

    I think it's better like this. Pacquiao & fans always argued how JMM doesn't deserve the 3rd fight and how there are bigger and better things to do, but it's just about to backfire as the rivalry will be remembered of Marquez having Pac's number who wouldn't want to dance with the Dinamite no more.

    I think that if both Pac and JMM win their upcoming fights(Pac against margo and JMM against Kats) a third fight between the two will be next.

    Pacquiao is a different fighter at the higher weights - JMM would be destroyed and everyone would dismiss the accomplishment. He's fighting Margo at a catchweight and people need to stop crying about it.

    If Marquez didn't lose THAT bad against Floyd who Pac is wanting to fight, your post would make a lot of sense.

    Margarito vs JMM = Margarito by ko. People need to stop clinging to the past, this isn't featherweight anymore. Might aswell have Vasquez vs Pac, afterall they use to be the same weight and both were top of their divisions.

    I wish JMM fight some top guy at 140 (rather than kats) and beat him decisively. That would make Pac vs JMM at 140 great. I mean, JMM have to prove that he can compete at 140 so people will not say that Pac cherrypicked him.

    Look at what happened to PBF vs JMM, people won't give Floyd credit even though he won by schooling. Now imagine, what if JMM had a stunning win against some TOP guy at welter BEFORE fighting Floyd. That would greatly enhance Floyd's victory and haters won't be able to say ****.

    I always fancy JMM beating Bradley, Khan or Alexander then goes to lose via KO at the hands of Pac at 140. My mind won't be able to contain that level of awesome if that ever happens. :rofl

    I doubt Pac ever fights below 147 again.

    Pac already whooped that ass twice. Got to move on to newer and better things.

    Fixed.

    But i do agree he should move on to newer things; A match with JMM now wouldnt prove anything except the obvious of Pac being able to handle the weight gain, and Marquez unable to.

    Freddie Roach is open to fighting at 140 lbs as long its not against Juan Manuel Marquez.
