Pacquiao: If the Price is Right, I’ll Fight!

Manny Pacquiao has many options for his next fight.  The possibilities include world 130-pound champion Juan Manuel Marquez, WBA-WBO-IBF lightweight Champion Juan Diaz, WBC lightweight titlist David Diaz, even the winner of Guzman-Soto or sensational knockout artist Edwin Valero.  All these make for acceptable opponents and exciting, significant fights.  The rumors in the last few days however have been pointing to David Diaz.  With that aside, Manny Pacquiao told the Manila Bulletin, “If the price is right, I’ll fight.”  It has also been reported by Brad Cooney of Boxingtalk that Manny Pacquiao told Freddie Roach to, “pick the fight that gets the most money and makes most sense.”  And there you have it, Manny Pacquiao is willing to fight anybody, he just wants to be paid for his services.  Source: Brad Cooney, the Manila Bulletin and the Inquirer.net
