Personally, I think the time is right for a third fight with Juan Manuel Marquez. Marquez is coming off a good win, whereas Shane Mosley hasn't looked so good recently. Berto can wait imo.

I'd like to see Manny fight Berto, mainly because I'd like to see Berto get whacked around some. I don't like his big mouth and reluctance to test himself against top fighters.

Re: Who should Manny Pacquiao fight if he can't get Mayweath
3 options
1. Marquez 2. Berto 3. Mosley
I think Marquez has earned the right more than the other two only problem is Manny won't fight him at 140 so Marquez wil be at a distinct disadvantage going into the fight which I'm not to keen on based on how he did at 147 against Mayweather
Berto hasn't earned it but may pose the biggest threat as he has very quick hands problem is he hasn't been in there with any where near the level of comp he need's to prepare himself for this (or the fans for that matter)
Mosley while looking terrible in his last two fights he has the proved that he can turn the clock back on any given night although I think his best days are well behind him now I think based off his recent performances he's least deserving of a chance at Pacquiao but then again he has given us many great fights over the years maybe he deserves one last big payday

Re: Who should Manny Pacquiao fight if he can't get Mayweath
I would say Marquez should be first at around 144 or 145. That's a fair weight for both guys to make. Marquez is winning in dynamic ways and has proven his claim to fight Manny.
Second I would say Martinez. Let the fight be at a legitimate 154 pounds so Manny can actually fight at that weight. If he losses a little bit by moving up to 154, it's equalled out by Sergio moving down to 154. That's fair, and it's not another catchweight fight. And the fight itself would be superb. Martinez has a superior chin and much much better lateral movement and speed than Manny's latest opponents. He's a true danger to the Pacman.
Third I would choose Mosley. Mosley has quick hands and great experience. He had Mayweather in trouble in the second round which is more than Marquez can say actually... and against Mora he should that he is equal to fighting a slickster. Maybe not better than a slickster, but equal to one. Mosley does well when he can exchange and doesn't cower when he's getting hit. He'll make it an exciting fight... though I see it a 9 rounds to 3 or 8 rounds to 4 win for Pacquiao.
After those three I'd be fine with Berto, Paul Williams (if he were to win a fight in like February), or winner of Devon Alexander vs Timothy Bradley.

Re: Who should Manny Pacquiao fight if he can't get Mayweath
As Paul Williams as always stated he can still make welterweight then I would like to see him have a chance at redemption. I think the KO defeat was a one off and he would be a huge challenge literally for Manny.
I would only want to see Manny/JMM III if it was 140 otherwise anything above that will be a mismatch.
Also I would not write off a rematch at 154 with Cotto but I am not sure Manny will be so confident if Cotto could fight at a more comfortable weight.

Pacman can get Floyd. Pacman doesn't want Floyd. What Pacman wants, Pacman gets.
