Who's the best opponent for Pacman?

Espn had there own poll going but the forum has more die hard fans!

 

Who is the best opponent for Pacman and why?

[edsel77x]

Berto by far

[Wheelchair]

Berto without question.

 

Mosley is too shot, and Marquez would suffer fighting Manny at a higher weight.

[gavpowell]

Marquez - because for one thing he's earned it, and for another I think he'll still be able to give Pacquiao nightmares at a higher weight, and it's about time Manny faced someone who isn't basically a come-forward fighter.

[edsel77x]

C'mon mates!

If no response at least a Poll pick

JMM, then berto. mosley, no thanks.

[brooklynbrawler]

All 3 of them are alright.

But that's just it.

They're "alright."

 

Marquez was soundly beaten by Mayweather not so long ago, and is clearly uncomfortable campaigning at 147 lbs.

Mosley, bar shaking Floyd with a couple of decent punches, was never at the races, and then he was mince and should rightfully have a loss on his record to Mora last time out. Might have been the frontrunner if that wasn't the case.

Berto's a natural welterweight, but is largely untested. He might cause Manny problems, then again he might be a total walkover and the worst pick of the 3.

 

I voted for the unknown quantity, because we pretty much know what we're getting with the other 2 guys, and imo, they're verging on mismatches, going by recent form.

Form doesn't always win a fight, so I would never totally write any of them off, and there could be a good fight in any of them.

I'd rather see how good Berto really is, at the same time as Manny is basically kepy busy.

 

Mayweather is THE fight. None of the above.

[edsel77x]

Mayweather is THE fight. None of the above.

 

Totally agree!

 

But since that fight is not going to happen... and Martinez vs Pac is out of the question...

Berto is a viable option.

Dzindzurik

[WelshDevilRob]

Berto! Fight someone not too small or shot.

[londoner]

Marquez, as long as it's not above 140lbs or so. Certainly not as high as 147lbs. They can both finally put to rest their rivalry. At least the saga will finally be over.

[RAZZ-MCFC]

Marquez at 140!

 

it's a change from the come forward punchbags Manny's been feasting on for the past couple of years, the only man to have given Manny any problems

 

Manny struggles with slick, counter punchers so a JMM fight at a weight suitable to both is the one for me, plus you have the bonus of the trilogy fight

What if they battle to a draw? mlol/

Sod's law ain't it. They'll draw and then we'll all be having this thread conversation all over again later in the year! mlol/
