I know its a tough one to find someone for him, and its not really the weight that bothers me, its the age of his opponents in his last two fights. Before that he took on a way over matched and outclassed Margarito, at least the guy was in his prime somewhat but still coming off a huge loss which pretty much made that fight an obvious win for Pac.
He could take Victor Ortiz at 147lbs, he could take Bradley at 145lbs, I know Amir Khan wont get put in with him because of Roach, I'd even be more interested in him beating up Maidana for 12 rounds...basically anyone who isnt going to sit there and let Manny beat on them for XX amount of rounds.
Now I know Marquez is still head and shoulders above the guys I mentioned except maybe Khan however although he's still fresh compared to Mosley he's also going to be in a weight class that he has no business in.
I k now its not Mannys fault that no one worth while is around to face him and that he doesnt pick the fights technically, but if he really wanted to he could tell Arum "I want to fight someone in their prime" or "I want someone in my weight class." but he goes along with it...cmon Manny were all fans give us a competitive fight.
The key is Self-discipline.
