At this point, there shouldn't even be a plan B anymore. All options should be leading to Mayweather and don't give me that first week of June bullshit. Unless Arum has a connection within the Las Vegas judicial system, this is more cowardice from Team Pacquiao.

It's Cotto according to his wife. Just go ahead and write the story Ronnie.

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...

the only fight should be Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao knows it. a Cotto II, Marquez IV and a Bradley fight will be still there despite the outcome with Floyd..... But knowing how Top Rank works, I wont be surprised if Pacquiao picked Cotto at 154 to be held at the Garden on the eve of the Puerto Rican Parade on June 9th.

It definitely won't be at 154. I can guarantee that.

[WESS]

Team Pac are embarrassing the sport of boxing with the blatant cowardly ducking... what a ***ing disgrace...

We all know Bob is not going to allow Pac to fight Mayweather and Pac is too much of a coward to make it happen. Truth is out, Pac is in fact a p*ssy

Looks like Mayweather is forced to fight Alvarez or Cotto... who have balls.

LOL good point..I didnt explain it well. at a catchweight of 151 for the 154lb title.
