    1. Timothy Bradley
    2. Amir Khan
    3. Marcos Maidana
    4. Devon Alexander
    5. Andreas Kotelnik
    6. Juan Urango
    7. Zab Judah
    8. Lamont Peterson
    9. Victor Ortiz
    10. Paul McCloskey


    I think it's safe to assume Manny would be a massive favorite over any one of these guys at 140 and would beat them all rather easily. With Pacquiao recently on record stating 140 is a more natural weight for him (which I think was already pretty obvious), I'd love to see him drop down and dominate this overhyped division. Would any of them even hear the final bell?


    Mind you, if you disagree and think one of these guys would beat Pac or give him a tough fight, feel free to state your case.

    Kotelnik, maybe. Good defense with that high guard and a good chin.

    Maybe Urango could last since he could take a punch. The only way i could see him getting stop is by tko corner or referee stoppage.

    Kotelnik and Bradley are honestly the only ones I could envision possibly going the distance, but ultimately I felt Kotelnik is too slow and Bradley too willing to mix it up.

    None. Bradley and Kahn have the biggest chance but Bradley is to wide with his punches and Khan doesnt have the chin or defense to overcome Pac. The rest in the list get overwhelmed and wont even make it to the 6th round

    Give me as much **** as you want, Bradley is one of 2 or 3 guys I'd pick over Pacquiao. Guys I'd also pick to make it the distance while losing most every round along the way: Maidana (he'd probably pick up one round early, one or two late), Kotelnik (Clottey II), Alexander (he may win one or two rounds early). Yes, Pacquiao has fierce power, but he is not a KO artist.

    Honestly, Khan gets sparked earlier than any of them. I sincerely don't believe he'd make it out of the first round and would bet accordingly.

    Pac would definitely terrorize the division. Tough to see people winning any rounds off of him.

    I'm not gonna give you **** man. I like Bradley. I just don't see how he could possibly win this fight. He'd try to get inside and maul him but he'd end up in exchanges with a guy who's simply faster, more accurate, more powerful and more durable. Headbutts would be his only hope but I really don't think Bradley is the type of fighter to use butts on purpose, though they'd be very likely to occur anyway.


    Kotelnik could try to be Clottey II but you have to bear in mind that Kotelnik is not nearly as big as Clottey and probably not even as strong as Pacquiao. Manny would be splitting his guard constantly without any problems. Clottey's technique "works" for him because he outweighs his opponents by 15lbs+ of solid ****ing african diesel and he's so much stronger than them that he can just keep his massive arms up and nobody can pierce his guard. As Clottey moves up in weight I think you will see him struggling more and more because he'll be fighting opponents closer to his size and strength, and he won't be able to absorb their shots on his arms as easily.
