    Default Which rematch makes most sense for Pacquiao?

    So the three choices for Pacquiaos next fight are; Bradley, Marquez or Cotto. I personally couldn't be bothered watching a Bradley fight any time soon, I really didn't enjoy the fight and thought Pacquiao won. I just don't think we should be paying big money again for another potential shit fight.

    I think Marquez does deserve another shot, but will he get shafted again? I think Pacquiao isn't performing like he use to and maybe Marquez could beat him this time. I would settle for the this rematch the most out of the three.

    I think Cotto looked good against Mayweather, but if he did rematch pacquiao the fight wouldn't happen at 154 so I don't know what the outcome would be. If Cotto is allowed to fight at what weight he wants, I think he would do a lot better this time than last time. I personally wouldn't mind seeing this fight again, it might make Pacquiao get engaged more because Cotto would be pressing the action.

    Bradley, of course, would anything else do, whether it makes sense or not? Bradley is a question that must be answered first! Let's give Bradley a chance to do it again, if he can. I want a different crew keeping score, how about you?

    Anything else would do than a rematch. Most everyone thought Pac won and the fight wasn't that exciting to begin with. So I figure Pac will go with the guy who can get him the most PPV which is Marquez.

    Pacquiao should avenge his loss to Bradley first,and then fight JMM
    for the final time and call it a day.

    I'm not sure Marquez gets more PPV than Cotto. But I also agree with others that Manny won't go up to 154. But yes, obviously either of those fights brings in way more money and interest than a Bradley rematch.

    Wouldn't be terribly surprised to see Floyd take Bradley as a stay-busy/just-out-of-jail November fight.

    Garcia's Take on Bradley, Marquez Facing Pacquiao Again - Boxing News

    apparently its looking more like Bradley as Marquez has priced himself out of a rematch??

    JMM should take the fight, it is an opportunity he may never get again.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Tom you should have went with cents instead of sense. It all gives me chills. Manny's passive demeanor after Bradley was almost jaw dropping. I was close to calling it a fix.

    Have always maintained that Floyd let Cotto in the fight. No belts on the line and no Arum telling Cotto what to do. 152 Manny?
    Here is where I have to bab on because I replied to you in quote and never met character requirements. Manny is a foot away from spent.

    I think people are "Pac-Marquez-ed" out.
    The Bradley fight, although not that entertaining, created questions that need to be answered.
    A Cotto rematch would be the best, I think. But would have to be at 154, which Manny can do. Cotto now has a real corner... not the clueless Joe Santiago. And the Cotto that fought Floyd would give Pac all he could handle. It would be an extremely competitive fight, where I'd give Cotto a 50/50 chance to win.

    I'd rather see him vs Cotto at 154 than any of the others, though I don't think there's any way Manny will agree to that. I actually have no interest in the others. I'd prefer Marquez to Bradley I guess, but I don't think there's any need for a fourth fight -- the outcome will be exactly the same as the others -- very close, hotly disputed, and less action than the preceding one.

    He needs to avenge the Bradley loss for sure, if not then Cotto is the one who deserves a shot. However i think the Pacquiao tank is running close to empty, i fear a huge KO loss looming sooner rather than later. Time is catching up on him fast.

    Out of those three? The guy who beat him, the guy who got the wrong score given.

    (I'm talking about JMM, not Bradley)

    The best choice will be Bradley.
    1. Better chance of beating Bradley. Cotto did look good and will not come down in weight again. And JMM always and will be a problem.
    2. Mayweather logoical choice should be Bradley. The person that beat him(Pacman).
    3. The only way to end a JMM saga, is to KO him(JMM). In which will be a lose/lose situation. JMM is old. JMM beat Pacman once, twice or even all 3 of the other times they fought.
    4. JMM will always be available. Even after a lose.
    5. Pacman needs to learn how to box with a boxer that's not going to come in a straight line to get ready for Mayweather if that fight ever happen.

    Pacquiao doesn't deserve another shot against Marquez because he's 0-3 against him.

    In your opinion, which is a valid one but when I look at boxrec it says 2-0-1 pacquiao I'm afraid. So Marquez should be granted another fight as pacquiao is on the slide and maybe he will beat him convincingly enough to finally get the offical win.
