I'd love to see Pacquiau work up to 140 to fight Hatton though.
If he gets by Castillo (which for me is a huge "if"--I'd put it at 40%), he should leave 140 for good, take his time to get into 147 with a relatively easy warm-up and plenty of time to adjust to the weight pre-fight, and then go after the big fights there--Cotto, Margarito, Mosely, and maybe Williams and a Collazo rematch. I don't think he'll ever get as big a name as ODH or Mayweather in the ring with him unless he convincingly beats Cotto, Margarito or Mosely (none of which fights I'd pick him to win--though I'd give him a shot against Margarito).
Intresting, Margarito is the one i'd give him least of a chance against!
Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!
