I can’t see a Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight happening this year. Manny is fighting on November 10th and any talks between the pair will take time. their talks are notoriously complicated. To be frank I am losing interest in that fight. If it ever happens it will be too late. They are the best out there but both are not the fighters they once were. It’s a fight that should have happened in 2010.

Pacquiao has left for a family holiday with his family in Israel. He intends to visit the holy city of Jerusalem and other various Christian communities. There has also been suggestions that he may spend a weekend in Paris. It’s a much needed break as Pacquiao hurried back to the Philippines after his fight and postponed his holiday. His home town was hit rigorously by storms and floods. His Mother was also taken to hospital after fainting at the news of her sons loss. Pacquiao made the right move by going where he was most needed.

Whilst relaxing with his family he has a big decision make. It’s imperative that he comes to the correct conclusion. His options for his November fight are; Marquez, Bradley and Cotto. It’s rumored that Mayweather will be fighting Cotto. Marquez isn’t a fight that the public wants as they have fought 3 times. I think he should go for Bradley. That belt was stolen and the issue needs to be resolved. Majority of Fans don’t want that rematch but there is still a relatively big demand for it. who should Pacquiao target?
