Barrios. This guy keeps getting the best opportunities of almost anyone with PBC. Career wise having a HOFer on his resume would be huge to up his Q score + bank account.
I think Manny is just looking for checks at this stage of his career.

Re: Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios - Who wins?
I suspect Barrios will decision him. Manny even at this stage is probably enough of a veteran to weather the storm, and survive, but I don't think he can beat a young prime fighter that's good anymore. Barrios is certainly not a great fighter, but he's good, and at this point that's probably more than Manny can handle.

Errol Spence vs. Sebastian Fundora and Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios double-header is possible for December.
It’s an interesting card in a trainwreck type of way, as Spence and Pacquiao are ring-worn and not ideal candidates to be challenging for world titles. The tickets would sell, and it could bring in some PPV buys for PBC on Prime Video pay-per-view.
Alan Dawson reports that Spence-Fundora and Pacquiao-Barrios could be happening on the same night in December. Spence (28-1, 22 KOs) would challenge WBC and WBO junior middleweight champion Fundora (21-1-1, 13 KOs).
