Pacquiao "not interested" in Cotto or Mosley, only Floyd or Marquez

[fan johnny]

instead of calling out fighters to come down and fight him while NOT at their best, and David Diaz is hardly an elite fighter now isn't he?!?

will you stop sayin this. as far as i know pacyeoww hasnt called out any of the welterweights out maybe except for floyd which i thought i've read here or on another forum just recently. they mentioned mosley and cotto as potential opponents but that's hardly calling them out.

GO JMM!

Roach and Manny both made it know that they want either fight, but don't want to step back up to 147

I think that is a very poor understanding of Team Pacquiao's position on making a deal for Pacquiao's next fight.

They make it known, they will taking a look at making a deal with one of a few top welterweights but if they want the fight they have to meet him at a catch weight and agree to the purse split.

There are some obvious advantages for team Pacquiao at the negotiating table. They can easily walk away from the table for another match and consequently they can command the higher split of the purse. Pretty much dictate all the major terms of the fight.

Given what is stated above, having leverage over the meeting weight, why would they not want to use that leverage? Wouldn't it be foolish not to?
