Who should Manny fight next and why?
It's either Mayweather or Marquez, right? Or should he retire as Khan says?
Bradley would be a good fight while it lasts, but I don't think it makes as much sense as the other two right now.
Mayweather is the bigger financial fight of the options, but the appeal from a competitive point of view has been lost after last weekend.
We know Marquez v. Manny is a great fight, but we've seen it three times. We already know how it will play out. Maybe Pacquiao owes Marquez another opportunity to get the win given the controversy surrounding the last fight.
Retiring is also an option. Manny has had a HOF career. In addition, one explanation for his flat performance his last weekend is that he is on the slide physically and just couldn't pull the trigger anymore.

Floyd in May or quit
simple as that
Re: Who should Manny fight next and why?
He should admit marquez beat him and than ask marquez for a rematch. Obviously we want to see the mayweather fight but let's get real.. bob arum is never going to put pacquiao in the ring with floyd mayweather.

Mark TKO - can you explain your reasoning? My problem with the Floyd fight now is that I don't see it as competitive.

Re: Who should Manny fight next and why?
Agree with Mark on this one, it's got to be Floyd, if not then just retire and get into the politics he so badly wants to do.
As some have mentioned, maybe Pac is on the slide, if this is the case then go out making the most ya can in one more fight, and that can only be Floyd.
The Marquez fight doesnt interest me now. We know how thats gonna pan out.
I would take Pac to beat Bradley in similar fashion he destroyed Cotto, Margarito etc..
Bradley will come forward and get smacked like a little boy who filled his pants.

I feel in a way about the Bradley fight like I do about the Floyd fight. Both wouldn't be super competitive although if Pac is on the slide, maybe Bradley would be more competitive than we think.
Re: Who should Manny fight next and why?
Mayweather.
Because its the fight thats been hyped up for the past 3 years. Doesn't need much of an explanation.

Re: Who should Manny fight next and why?
Rantcatrat, I don't see why you would not want to see this fight, after all this time of hype and debate. What happen on the weekend has happened twice before so I don't see how you thought it would be competitive before but after the weekend its not.

I think Bradley would be more inclined to come forward early in the fight and attempt to impose his will. Whereas Floyd, will fight off the back foot and counter Pac moving in, once he has Manny stunned or hurt he will move forward. Like Marquez, he will prefer the counter style, well thats Floyd all over anyway.

How about the guy that swims a lot on Saddo? Surely that would be an epic war for Pac?:p
Re: Who should Manny fight next and why?
Mayweather or retire, Pac is slipping and can't prove anything fighting anyone else.
