Who’s next for Manny Pacquaio? To me, it seems like a layup – Barrera. If Pac Man fights Marquez, I’ll watch for sure, but if he fights Barrera? To me, that’s a superfight.

I must say, I didn’t even think Marquez was in the running until I watched that HBO fight on Saturday night and Manny and Max Silverman were pumping up the Marquez/Pac Man possibility (and on that score, Max, please – Pacquiao got Barrera in the 11th round, not the 5th).

I thought Marquez looked a step slow and on the whole pedestrian against the Filipino, Jaca, who certainly did seem to be a poor man’s Pacquiao. The question to me boils down to this – do you really think Marquez would beat Barrera right now? I emphatically do not. If Barrera brawled like the old days, it might be touch-and-go, but if he mixed in his boxing rounds with his brawling rounds, I think he’d probably get the stoppage.
