    What's Mannys problem?



    So according to this article Manny was called on tuesday and asked whether or not he would like to fight Barrera.

    And it looks like Manny still hasn't made up his mind.

    Seriously, whats holding Manny back from saying yes? I know that Manny is having some trouble with his promoters but his promoters are'nt stopping him from saying that he would like to fight Barrera but his promoters are making it hard for the fight to materialize.

    He infact seems to be distracted and is looking for a fight with In Jin Chi in Macau.

    Can someone please tell me whats going on?

    Manny saying yes? Or Barrera? Seems like it's moreso on Barrera's side. Remember, it's Barrera that needs Manny, Manny doesn't need Barrera.

        What are you talking about? That would be like saying Angelina Jollie needs a face lift.

        Yes he does need Barrera. Well his belt at least. And maybe another match to show that in his weight division he is the man to beat.

          They both need each other point blank.I know Pac beat Barrera once but Barrera vs Paquiao is the biggest fight at the lower weights, theirs not a bigger name out their for Paquiao and the same thing for Barrera.

            Manny seems to be haven management issues. He already beat up Barrera convincingly I don't see him having a problem with a rematch that will make money and that he will most likely win.

              "Barrera needs Manny"

              I had a good laugh at that one.

                  Simple. Pacman does not want to fight in March. He wants to take some time off and feels that March is too soon for him. GBP already had that March 17 locked up and Manny does not want to commit to that.

                    World Boxing Council (WBC) top honcho Jose Sulaiman Chagnon, thru his good pal Rex 'Wakee' Salud, last Tuesday called up Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao apparently in an effort to possibly salvage a rematch with WBC champion Marco Antonio Barrera.

                    In a three-way telephone conversation involving Filipino boxing promoter Salud, Pacquiao and Sulaiman, the latter had reportedly asked Pacquiao if he was indeed interested in a rematch with Barrera, to which the fire-breathing Filipino icon said 'yes.'

                    To back up his interest, Pacquiao, according to a source, even raised the money offered to Barrera to $3 Million, which is a big leap from the $2.5 Million initially offered by Top Rank boss Bob Arum during a press conference held at the Manila Hotel recently.

                    "The offer for Barrera is now up to $3 Million plus a share of the pay-per-view upside. That's already a big offer, considering that Pacquiao is the main draw," said a source close to the situation.
