GREAT NEWS!!! Barrera wants Pacquiao NOW!!!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

This fight would not happen until 2007. Pacquiao already has two fights locked for this year. Even if the fight is made, it wont be until sometime around March-April of next year. Barrera would have to at least fight one more time before then, and either fighter could lose before that fight even happens.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: BARRERA NOW WANTS TO FIGHT PACQUIAO!!!

By Salven L. Lagumbay

In a major twist of events, WBC and IBF superfeatherweight king Marco Antonio Barrera is now calling out Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao and has indicated his intention to defend his WBC title against the General Santos lefty.

WBC president Jose Sulaiman, in a faxed message addressed to Pacquiao, manager Shelly Finkel, promoter Gary Shaw and Games and Amusements Board chairman Eric Buhain yesterday, revealed that Barrera had contacted the WBC office to announce his readiness to face Pacquiao soon.

"The WBC super featherweight champion of the world Marco Antonio Barrera has contacted the WBC to let us know that he is ready and willing to make his WBC mandatory defense against Manny Pacquiao," Sulaiman said in his letter.

"It is absolutely necessary that you inform us within 7 days, as requested before, if you accept the official challenger position and if you are ready to fight Marco Barrera for the WBC's super featherweight championship of the world," the letter added.

Buhain immediately indicated that he will be contacting all individuals involved, saying "This is the biggest event we have been waiting for to transpire."

Barrera was scheduled to challenge IBF lightweight champ Jesus Chavez on March 25, but the bout fell through after Chavez suffered a torn muscle in his left bicep that will require surgery, according to official releases sent by organizers.

Pacquiao, for his part, is set to take on Mexican Oscar "Chololo" Larios in a 10-round non-title fight on June 25 at the Araneta Coliseum.

A rubbermatch with Mexican Erik Morales has been penciled for September 16 in Las Vegas, but now that Barrera has suddenly come into the picture, Pacquiao may have to choose who to fight after Larios.

For shizzle! Barrera calls Pacquiao out only when he has atleast 2 fights locked for his future. Barrera don't really want anything to do with Pacquiao, he's just saying that so he doesn't get called a *****.

If Barrera comes to the ring against Pacman as he did against Rocky, he will not see the end of the fignt.

I agree with you. Not to take anything away from Rocky but after Saturday nights performance, Barerra will not get passed Manny.

Yeah aight Manny Pacquiao will have to register as a sex offender in Manila for the way he ****s Barrera. It will just be gratuitous punishment on a legend for the **** of it. I don't see how Barrera can last into the second half of the fight, to be honest.

you can look at it like that or look at it another way. barrera is giving the people anticipation for this fight, buliding this fight that has yet to be made, making ever pacquiao and barrera fight that much more important for them to win. plus, this is how every challenger or champion calls out another fighter, its been done in boxing history. if the prospect of barrera v. pacqiao is what the majority of the people want to see then i can see somone paying off morales to step aside, if the many people really want to see this fight between barrera and pacquiao.
