    Why is Manny Pacquiao suddenly fighting all of Floyd Mayweather’s leftovers? First it was Ricky Hatton after Mayweather had beaten the taste out of his mouth in 2007, and now it’s Shane Mosley, who Mayweather easily beat this year by a horribly one-sided fight. Doesn’t Bob Arum have any other ideas for his fighter than to put him in with guys that Mayweather badly schooled in the past? Mayweather does a number on these guys and they don’t look the same afterwards.

    And then Pacquiao comes along and fights them and basically picks up what’s left of them after Mayweather’s masterful performances. And when Pacquiao isn’t fighting Mayweather’s leftovers, he’s fighting guys that nobody wants to see him against, like Joshua Clottey and Antonio Margarito. Do you honestly think Mayweather would waste his time against either of those guys? I’d love to be a fly on the wall to hear a conversation between Mayweather and his promoter if he were to mention those guys as possible opponents for him.

    Fair question.

    Another fair question is "how old does Manny have to get before Floyd agrees to fight him?"
