Manny Pacquiao once again confirmed for November 10 ? Boxing News
Earlier this week, Manny Pacquiao?s adviser and friend Michael Koncz said that the former WBO titlist has been rescheduled to December this year from November 10. However, earlier today, Koncz?s statement came in saying that the Filipino icon is once again scheduled for November 10.
?It's not so much the political end, there are issues with the December 1st date... a television issue and that's the problem, so that's what we're trying to work out,? said Koncz, who earlier revealed that Pacquiao will be going for the elections in his country due to which he will be unable to fight on November 10.
Many analysts believed that Pacquiao might fight Puerto Rican former champion Miguel Cotto who will be fighting at the Madison Square Garden, New York on December 10. Although Bob Arum of Top Rank, Pacquiao?s promoter, declined the notion of Pacquiao facing Cotto, speculations were still being made. Now, after Koncz?s recent statements, fans are once again wondering as to who will be the Filipino?s next foe.
For now, Pacquiao has four possible opponents to choose from. He could go for a fourth match against Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez, a rematch against Timothy Bradley, a rematch against Miguel Cotto or a super-bout against WBC welterweight titlist Floyd Mayweather.
It should be noted here that Bob Arum has already indicated that fight against Mayweather is only possible next year and not this year. Arum has also revealed that among the three, Bradley was Pacquiao?s lowest payout. Therefore, Arum is trying his level best to persuade the Filipino former champion to either go for Marquez or Puerto Rican, as both of them are highly popular worldwide.
On the other hand, Pacquiao, who lost his WBO welterweight title to Timothy Bradley earlier this year wants to go head to head with the Desert Storm once again.
Pacquiao promised his fans that he would bring the title back home and so he feels responsible. As for Marquez, Pacquiao earlier said that he has already faced Marquez thrice and so he does not feel the need of going for a fourth match once again.
