Re: Arum says Pacquaio will fight Soto on November 15

i don't think it's going to happen. there are people in pac's camp who are unhappy over it. it's a high risk low reward fight for pac. i would rather have pac fight valero than soto if there's no other option. Pac should have been unifying with campbell while valero could face soto to get some U.S. exposure. pac might have to wait it out for the winners of JMM-casa, kats-diaz and campbell-guzman or go for julio diaz in the meantime.

That's what I'm saying before that fighting Valero looks better on PAC's resume. An undefeated kayo artist and younger than PAC, if PAC knocksout Valero nobody can discredit him for that. Actually they should put Yuriokris Gamboa against PAC considering this guy has well over 400 amateur fights that's fair enough. Well we can't pit PAC against Guzman right now because he will be fighting Campbell.

Despite that, I'm glad this is happening. It will be entertaining. Maybe Soto will get someone who wants to fight him since according to him Guzman didn't want to. Hopefully it comes off, there really is nothing better out there and that includes Valero. After that and the dust on the division has settled, hopefully we get some type of superfight with any combination of Marquez/Guzman/Pacquiao. That's what I'm waiting for, this certainly isn't a bad filler, two very entertaining fighters.

Am I the only one who thinks Soto is a lot like Margarito? I mean in the ring, he reminds me a lot of Margarito.

Re: Arum says Pacquaio will fight Soto on November 15

For me as long as they're within the junior lightweight to lightweight limit I wouldnt worry about it. PAC is already a LEGEND in my eyes.

I use to worry about PAC fighting Juan Diaz, Edwin Valero, Joan Guzman, Humberto Sotto, JMM and the list goes on but not anymore.

PAC has enough skill/ firepower to beat these guys.

Re: Arum says Pacquaio will fight Soto on November 15

I think this will definatley happpen. Arum will have Valero fight on the undercard and try to generate some pub for Valero for a Pac-Valero fight early next year. I thought Soto would put up a fight before Guzman really took him to school. I think Pac will score a 5th roundn KO.

Boxrec have Soto lined up to fight Barrera in September then Pac in November. I thought Barrera was retired? He's hardly gonna fight the 2 of them in 2 months :confused:

Nah Soto will either fight one or the other. There appears to be some resistance to Pac - Soto even though Arum says its easier to make than the Valero fight so Barrera looks more likley . . .Especially if the rumours are true that he is leaving golden boy, annoyed that the promotional company havent got him any fights since November 07

Re: Arum says Pacquaio will fight Soto on November 15

it seems campbell isn't officially bound to fight guzman yet. pac vs. campbell can still be made for november.

"When asked why Campbell has not been frequently discussed in the Manny Pacquiao Sweepstakes, Trekas replied, "We let Top Rank know that Nate wasn't officially bound to do the Guzman fight, and that we would skip him and fight Pacquiao in November if they were interested. They were already committed to the Valero deal."

Campbell vs. Guzman in Jacksonville? Bradley in Co-Slot? - Boxing News

I've also read Arum just offered Nate $3 million to fight pac.

Soto is a quality opponent. Anyone who watched his last fight knows he didn't lose it. His loss to Guzman is no shame, Guzman is an undefeated fighter.

Soto is a much more dangerous opponent than Valero IMO.
