CEBU -- Pacquiao's trusted adviser, Wakee Salud, who had just sent off the Pacman to the airport on the way back to General Santos, has advised the new WBO/WBA lighweight world champ Juan Diaz to take a spot and fall in line for the Pacman.
Diaz (32-0 16KOs) is looking forward to a "dream match" with Pacquiao after dispatching former world champ Acelino Freitas hours ago at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantuket, CT.
Pacquiao, the world's most exciting fighter, had been previously quoted as saying that he could easily beat Diaz.
"There are still plenty of compelling matches to make in the super feather division," Salud said. "There is Marquez, there is Barrera, Guzman, Valero, Soto ... Manny has to clean up his division first before going up to lightweight to fight Diaz. But eventually, I think they will meet and it will be a good matchup," Salud said.
