Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum informed the Manila Bulletin that he plans to present three possible options to Manny Pacquiao for a posssible defense of the WBO welterweight title in either April or May. Arum plans to meet with Pacquiao in the first week of January in Los Angeles. The short list, according to Arum, are Juan Manuel Marquez (53-6-1, 39KOs), unbeaten WBO 140-pound champion Timothy Bradley (28-0, 12KOs) and WBC 154-pound champion Miguel Cotto (37-2, 30KOs).

What is wrong with Pacquiao/Mayweather in July, Arum you fraud ?

Bradley vs Pacquiao is the fight that people want to see, so it's not gonna happen. Top Rank/Bob Arum gives fans the opposite of what they want to see.

Gee whiz...I didn't see this coming.....

From a business standpoint you can't blame Arum for what he's doing. He probably never wanted Mayweather-Pacquiao to begin with. Now he has the chance to make another fight with his cash cow, and who are the options? Top Rank fighters. Another in-house fight. And, Arum does not look bad doing this. So you can't blame him. He saw the opportunity for yet another in-house fight without having all the fans criticize him. Arum will say, 'well it's not my fault Floyd got locked up' and the media will run along with that.

Good business move by Bob Arum. Remember it's business first, I gotta hand it to him and I really can't hate on him for this.

Lmao what happened to Manny not being able to fight til June cuz of his cut? I guess that cut healed up real quick once floyd got sentenced.

that's real bad lying eh? what an idiot he is.

I really doubt they chose Bradley at this time as much as i want that fight to happen..I really believe its gonna be a Pac vs Cotto 2... Pac has more advantages choosing cotto, plus bringing cotto down in weight would really give Pac a guarantee win..Bradley at this stage would be a dangerous fight for Pac

I agree man, I cant see anything on the horizon except for Pac/Cotto II.

They would be nuts to fight Marquez again, and I cant see Pac beating Bradley.

Manny's career has been built on masterful match-making, timing, and advantages, and he dont have any advantages against Bradley.

The weight will not be a problem, and Bradley is on top of his game.

Bradley is young, hungry, and in his prime, Pac simply doesn't fight those guys, so I see Cotto II next up for Manny.

People need to remember that Trampler/Roach are the most influential people within Team Pacquiao when it comes to determining Manny's future opponents. TR will make a similar amount no matter who Pac fights, the important thing with the Manny-train has been to keep him winning, and to make sure that he looks good..... Trampler knows whats up, and I cant exactly see him giving Tim a glowing reference ^^

bring on cotto II at a 152 lb cw fight for his belt to legitimize that 8th world title!

IMO, none of those fights Pac can win clearly, if he can win.

Style-wise, Cotto would be far less dangerous.

Win lose or draw, Pac will not look good against Bradley, and as for JMM.......
