Pacquiao Going After Barrera

MANNY Pacquiao wants taller, bigger opponents in the tougher, heavier featherweight division. The International Boxing Federation super bantamweight champ appeared bored after his fourth successful defense of the 122-lb crown, as he expressed his desire to move up to the featherweight (126-lb) division during yesterday’s Scoop sa Kamayan in Quezon City. The 24-year-old Pacquiao said his manager, Rod Nazario, is already negotiating with the IBF and his American promoters for a future featherweight campaign that would give him a chance to become the first Filipino to win a title in three different divisions.
