    Pac is way to good for Bradley and Alexander that is very high praise for Pac, I don't think there is a real test for him at 147 or below other than Mayweather, an the only way we get Pac in a tough test is probably put him in with a guy alot bigger than him.

    I actually think him vs Bradley would be a great fight. Bradley would be the most live opponent he's had in a while.

    But I think that would be sweeping the floor right underneath Khan who is Roach's subject and who he probably wants to fight him.

    Pacquiao pretty much and Mayweather are going to have to fight each other at that point. Because everyone the other may have "ducked" has been beaten by the other so there would be no one else to fight. So I think Pacquiao and Mayweather have one more fight in them, and it's going to be against each other.

    Was gonna say the same thing - I reckon he'd beat either of them quite easily to be honest. I reckon it would be stopped with seven rounds (if that). Pac is on a whole different level to those two.

    I don't disagree, but the winner of that fight is going to be a top 10, maybe top 5 if Bradley wins, P4P fighter and that would be a huge win for Pacquaio. Especially if the guy he beats goes on to achieve great things in the sport, which I think is very possible.

    Would you have Alexander in the top 10 if he beat Bradley?

    @154 - Alfredo Angulo, Shane Mosley, Kermit Cintron, Anthony Mundine , Cotto II
    @147 - Andre Berto
    @140 - Devon Alexander/ Tim Bradley

    I think Mosley deserves another shot

    He took a lot of shots from Margarito. Why? The only motivation at this point is money. Pacquiao should just retire. He doesn't need to fight anyone unless it is Mayweather to make the biggest payday in history.

    Martinez and Williams are already in the top 5 on most lists and fight at the weight Pacquiao is fighting at now. Bradley and Alexander are fighting at the weight Pacquiao fought at before and a weight he won't fight at again. Why make boxers come up to fight him if he could fight someone at the weight he is fighting at now? Basically, I just think that for his legacy, Martinez and Williams are much bigger wins.

    My preference after Margarito :


    2011

    Floyd
    Floyd Rematch


    2012

    Berto is he's unbeaten at the time if not Bradley. both at 54
    Sergio Martinez @160


    2013

    1 Easy Farewell fight
    Retire

    I completely agree that Floyd is the preferred choice, but assuming that won't happen in his next fight (although maybe the fight afterward), you're saying you prefer Berto? Actually, I agreee in that I mean I may like that more than Bradley/Alexander winner. I still say Sergio Martinez at 154 is the best fight out there for him in terms of noteworthy opponent and securing his legacy.

    I agree that Martinez and/or Williams would be much bigger wins, but I really don't think Pacquiao will fight them. Martinez is a legit MW and Williams probably is too, I think that would just be a step too far for Pacquiao and I think his team would probably feel the same way.

    I'm pretty sure Martinez can't make 154, and even if he did I think that is too much of a step for Pacquiao. The winner of Bradley/Alexander is the logical choice in terms of being the same size, considering that Pac really is a small welterweight. And I really don't think he needs to fight Martinez or Williams to secure his legacy. It's already set. In fact any victory over an elite opponent now only enhances it not secure it.
