Trainer Freddie Roach told ESPN's Brian Kenny that Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2, 38 KOs) has agreed to defend his WBO welterweight title against former champion Joshua Clottey (35-3, 20 KOs) on March 13. Clottey will replace Floyd Mayweather Jr. if a deal is finalized. Top Rank had tried to offer a fight with WBA 154-pound champion Yuri Foreman but Pacquiao rejected him as an opponent citing concerns over the size difference. Pacquiao has accepted Clottey as an opponent. The fight will likely head to a Las Vegas venue and land on HBO pay-per-view. [Click Here To Read More]

They never wanted the fight.
Floyd wasn't supposed to agree to the money split.
Then he definitely wasn't supposed to agree to the weight penalties.
Then he wasn't supposed to agree to the date.
I will say this, Pacquiao's balls are the size of tomatoes. Clottey as a tune-up? I say he kick's Josh's a** but not bad...not bad at all.Comment
