Manny is a buster for taking these fights

[Snakey]

I dont get why everyone keeps saying Sergio would be suicide for pac? Why coz it might actually be a challenge? Hes beating guys like mosley, hatton, cotto, margarito, dela hoya while barely losing a round. Why should he keep fighting guys that are just going to fall with the first left hand, hes obviously handling the weight well so its not like that hes not tested at the weight anymore.

Sergio would have four inches in height, EIGHT inches in reach, probably 20-25 pounds in the ring and he's damned near as good an athlete as Manny is!

Wheres the problem with this....sounds like the same stats they spoke of when he fought Margo

The problem is you didn't read the WHOLE sentence!

No I did...so your saying he shouldnt fight Sergio coz Martinez is as good as he is and bigger...so he only fought margarito coz he knew he wasnt as good as him. Wouldnt call that looking for a challenge. If anyone else did that it would be called cherry picking.

Horsehockey! In Margarito's case Manny had some advatages to offset Margarito's. In Sergio's case I think Manny has none to offset Sergio's massive size advantage.

Cherry picking would be avoiding guys your own size. Unless you want to make the case Marvin Hagler cherry picked because he didn't move up to face Mike Spinks or that Carlos Monzon cherry picked because he didn't challenge Bob Foster or Carlos Ortiz cherry picked because he didn't challenge Jose Napoles. You want to try to make those cases?

Manny is ALREADY fighting guys considerably larger and now you want him to move two MORE divisions?

Please name me all the fighters in history who have successfully fought across ten of today's divisions or the equivalent. When you run out of names before you run out of fingers? Think again how reasonable it is to be called a cherry picjker for not go up two MORE divisions.

Take away the fact hes moved up in weight so much, everyone said he was starving himself in the lower weights. If there was a fighter at welterweight that was dominating everyone and fights were looking like mismatches everyone would say he needs to move up. Im just saying as a fan I will pay to watch JMM fight Pac coz i think he has a good chance but im not going to pay to watch him fight guys like Ortiz and Bradley and I dont think the casual fan will even know who they are. If he wants to be on PPV then he needs big fights and lets face it he only has 3 options : PBF, JMM or Sergio. PBF doesnt look like happening, JMM is happening and he wont fight Sergio....so thats one fight that people will care about.
