Who's next for Pacquiao? (without Hatton)

[JT Rock]

Whoever is going o pay him the most.. Funny how that comes to light now, and Mayweather was getting shit for try to maximize the $$$$$ and pac was supposed to be cut from a different cloth Now Pac is in the drivers seat and guess what He is trying to maximize too

Exactly. Good post.

I can only hope Pac wises up just as he did when the De La Hoya deal was supposedly dead. Because both financially and legacy wise there is no fight that even approaches a bout with Hatton. Any other fight he takes will be for a third of the money at best, and won't do nearly as much for his legacy. I know some people thought Marquez won both fights (I thought Pac won the first 113-112 with Marquez winning in rounds 7-5 but Pac winning on points based on the 10-6 first round; thought Pac won second fight 114-113 based on 2nd round KD but having Marquez winning either fight was reasonable based on many close rounds). But another Marquez fight would not do much for his legacy and certainly would not reach the financial realm of a Hatton fight. In any case, no fight approaches the Hatton fight either legacy or money wise. Legacy wise it gives him a title in his 6th weight class against a HOF caliber fighter. Money wise it is ridiculously more than anything else he could get. This is a no-brainer and his team would be retarded to pass it up.

mayweather was getting shit because he was getting too much money and fighting safe. when you watch a pac fight you get what you are paying for. pac is now p4p#1 so he has the right to demand more. he is the bigger draw between him and hatton.

So far as expected, PBF leads as next for Pacquiao... More money, more legacy, more prestige...

No one voted for Margarito (or Mosley)? Margarito said he's ready to fight Pacquiao next after this Saturday's fight with Mosley...

"Margarito says a fight with Pacquiao is very possible. If he prevails over Mosley on Saturday, he will take a look at his available options, Cotto or Pacquiao, and make a decision. Both Margarito and Pacquiao and promoted by Top Rank.

"I am focused on the fight with Mosley. [My next fight] will be a rematch against Cotto or a fight with Manny Pacquiao. We are willing fight him anywhere, but first we should concentrate on this fight [with Mosley] and later we will see what happens," Margarito told Primera Hora. "Freddie Roach has already said that they have the keys to beat me."

"In reality I never thought that he would continue fighting at welterweight. I thought that he moved up only to fight De La Hoya, but now they are already talking about me."

If Hatton def doesn't happen I see being Floyd! In which case Pac gets taught a lesson!

If Pac decides to get in the ring with Margarito after the Mosley fight, he gets the Golden Balls award for the last 10 years... Margarito is savage for a Welter... He's as big and relentless as they come, and Manny is barely even a genuine Welter... or a Welter period...

i don't know if this is true but according to some boxing analyst.. the reason why pac wants the bigger slice of the pie is because he has to share a % for Top Rank, a % for Golden Boy promotions, a % for U.S. tax, a % for PI tax, a % for a sanctioning fee, % for training and % for his lawyer... those in bold letters are the main reason why they want a bigger share...

Hmmnnn this could be true... Whatever it is, PAC has (I think) sensible reasons to back out from the negotiation... It's a fight that most fans wanted but what can we do if both parties can't agree on some fight details...

Let's move on... Who's next for PAC (without Hatton)?

Fanboy to the end

yeah i am a fanboy.so what. did i say anything that i made up to be called a fanboy. you are just a biased anti pac hater!

[HattonTheHammer]

would love to see pac-marquez III but dont see it happening for at least a couple of years yet.

If the hatton fight doesnt go through i genuinely see pacs next fight still at 140 as i believe he will still want to put himself in the shop window for a title at 147!

[fan johnny]

Forget about Soto, Valero unless time needs to be filled up.

Yes, while I'd love to see PFB and Pacquiao in the ring, I just don't think it will happen. PBF really should face Margarito but he would loose that fight too.

JMM, well.... the guy is done against a quailty opponent and we'll see what happens with J Diaz... JMM/MP wouldn't be the same fight as the first two. Also I think for JMM/MP matchup to happen, JMM has to get by Hatton first. Assuming he beats Diaz. Think about it! We are not talking about 135 class. Diaz really fight down a class.

I think Top Rank and Freddy Roach are laying out a path for Pacquiao to fight Margarito. Pacquiao loves to fight and I think that is who Pacquiao wants. He is always looking to further his accomplishments and Margarito fits into that defination better than PBF but only because PBF is not fighting. If PBF were fighting and faced Margarito then PFB for Pacquiao would mean a whole lot more than just a money fight.

1st of all.. who are you to say who getting to much money?? By fighting safe you must mean OUT BOXING his opponent?

Thats why you are a fanboy... I'm not a pac hater, I dislike the delusion that the majority of Pac fans display
