Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Selects Next Opponent, Arum Quiet on Decision

[puroylan]

I am a huge Pacman fan but this is absurd! Arum is the one running the show. This is a selfish act by Arum and Manny is letting Arum play with him. Pacaman will be doubted by many. Fight Gayweather now as this fight might never happen. This is the best time coz Floyd is finalling calling him out!!

This is all a PR Stunt. It's to get people interested in the fight again.

The Floyd fight was signed along time ago.

The Philippine Star reports that WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao has selected his next opponent - if a deal can't be reached with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Pacquiao and his promoter, Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, sat down yesterday and the veteran promoter saidthe meeting took 30 minutes. There were four choices on the table - WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez, WBA 154-pound champion Miguel Cotto, WBO junior welterweight champion Tim Bradley and IBF/WBA 140-pound champion Lamont Peterson. Arum would not disclose the name of the opponent.

Utter Rubbish......

This is just more " feel-good for the fans " bull**** from Manny.

Just announce who you selected Pac, we all know whats up.

yeah...I'll be watching Pac's next fight on a free stream just like I did for the Clottey fight and just like I did for the Cotto Margo fight. Phuck Arum and all of this BS.

If the rest of you dudes who are sick of this feel the same way...trust me, free streaming for these BS fights is the way to go. Until these greedy and selfish phuckers start feeling it in their pocketbook, nothing is going to change. None of the good fights are being made...

Forget Pac's fights, I'm not paying for another Top Rank event, period. If my guy is fighting, I will buy merchandise, that greedy old **** gets nothing from me.

Bob Arum and Top Rank has done an amazing job of ruining Pacquiaos legacy this last week.

Pac is fighting his own past prime leftovers. SMH

There's only so much microwaving a steak can handle, brah.

[ShoulderRoll]

If Pac ducks Mayweather and fights Cotto, will the fight be at another catchweight?

Because we know Manny can't fight at 154......or at least that's that Team Pacquiao claimed when they ducked Sergio Martinez.

We Already Know its not Mayweather so I think he'll choose JMM again their last fight was competitive/controversial instantly it will do bigger numbers than the other choices Cotto Bradley Peterson
