Murray Wilson, says WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao will bite off more than he can chew if he steps in the ring with WBA junior middleweight champion Yuri Foreman. There are heavy talks going on for Foreman to replace Floyd Mayweather Jr. as Pacquiao's March opponent. Murray says a preliminary agreement has been reached with Top Rank to face Pacquiao on March 20.

He doesn't think Pacquiao will be that much of a force at 154-pounds against Foreman. Murray says Foreman is too big. He does have a big advantage in height, reach and size. Foreman is bigger than Oscar De La Hoya, the biggest man on Pacquiao's resume but that fight was held at 147 and De La Hoya drained himself to make the weight. Foreman would come to the ring weighing at least 160-pounds or more.

"We reached an agreement for Pacquiao to face Foreman. Originally we wanted to have it on March 13, but (Floyd) Mayweather, Jr. has that date booked with the MGM Grand. So we are looking at March 20. We still have to settle some things, but we will definitely not have blood tests done on either of the two fighters," Wilson told Primera Hora.

"It will be a tough fight. I believe that Manny is heading into the unknown. It will not be easy against a man who will hydrate up to 160 pounds by the time of the fight. I think it will be too much for him (Pacquiao)."
