I think the Cotto fight would be a superb fight. Forget the catchweight shit too, they could make this legit at 147.

So far Shane Mosley is leading in this poll with 37% of the votes but it's unfortunate that PAC won't fight Shane at 147 and instead asked him to go down to 142 lbs if he wants to fight PAC... Team PAC felt Mosley is too big for PAC at 147... So scratch out Shane where PAC can possibly get his 7th division title...

I would much prefer to see Mayweather v Shane anyway.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I don't care as long as he lets them fight at 147 pounds.
I'm guessing that if PAC fights at 147 again, it will be against a Urango or a Berto...![]()
.
Berto looks like sh!t in his fight with Urango... I think Berto is the prime candidate where PAC can get his 7th division title and become the only boxer to have titles in 7 different weight divisions...
PAC vs. Berto for WBC welterweight title... IMO, PAC will KO/TKO Berto inside 6 rounds...
.
Yeah, I knew this would be said after last night. I guess PAC has a legacy/record vs money dilemma here, though. Then again if he could beat one of the better WWs, his legacy would be cemented even better; while making more money.
Here's a scenario for a possible PAC-Berto fight. PAC can't close a deal with the top welters (PBF, Mosley or Cotto) due to various reasons like purse split, catchweight, etc. This is where Berto's WBC welter belt come in handy. PAC possibly snatching Berto's belt can considerably raise his stocks by becoming the only boxer to get titles in 7 different weight divisions. It will add to PAC's negotiating power for his future fights...

I've been reading long time. This will be my first post.
If Manny Pacquiao fights at Welterweight Division and gets one of the championship belt. He cement more his legacy as one of the LEGENDS of boxing The FIRST and ONLY Fighter and boxer who achieved:
7th Division Champion
4th lineal Champion ("the man who beat the man") in four different weight classes
Wow! That's hard to beat. Very interesting...
I will put him one of the Top 5 all time boxer. His resume is FULL pack! I wish i watch him fight from the beginning of his career.This Asian sensation is Bruce Lee Reincarnation.
I will put Pacquiao one of the top 5 fighter of all time if he gets the 7th division championship belt. Imagine he is the only boxer to get 7th division champion and 4 lineal champion. He is the legend right now. Bruce Lee reincarnation.
There's a possibility that PAC can't come to terms with the other 147 champs (Mosley or the winner of Clottey-Cotto) then Berto comes into the picture... You can criticize PAC all you want but negotiation issues might just lead to an eventual PAC vs. Berto fight for the WBC 147 belt...
