After proving that his first victory over Mexican ring idol Erik ?El Terrible? Morales was no fluke, Filipino World Boxing Council (WBC) International Superfeatherweight champion Manny ?Pacman? Pacquiao now wants to know if he can beat Mexican Superfeatherweight king Marco Antonio Barrera two times in a row.
Pacquiao, fresh from his third round knockout win over Morales in Las Vegas last Saturday (Sunday in Manila), told ABS-CBN?s Maganda Umaga Pilipinas that he prefers Barrera over two other boxers who have challenged him following his win.
?Actually, gusto ko si Barrera kasi baka natiyambahan ko lang daw siya. Si Barrera ang gusto kong labanan dahil hindi niya inamin na natalo ko siya,? (Actually, I prefer Barrera because some say that my victory over him was a fluke. I prefer Barrera because he never admitted that I defeated him) Pacquiao said.
In their first meeting on November of 2003, Pacquiao battered Barrera to earn an 11th round technical knockout win before a soldout crowd at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.
Since then, Barrera has been itching for revenge on the Pacman.
Aside from Barrera, World Boxing Organization (WBO) Featherweight champion Joan Guzman of the Dominican Republic and Venezuelan punching machine Edwin Valero have challenged Pacquiao.
