By Peter Wells: Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. is officially off now and as we all know Pacquiao is likely to fight former International Boxing Federation welterweight champion of the world Joshua Clottey on March 13th. Pacquiao has now agreed to the fight and I’m sure Clottey has to. Promoters are now trying to get an arena for the fight, and Las Vegas would be the most logical, but Dallas is the most likely state to host the event. Bob Arum doesn’t like the sound of it, but he doesn’t like the sound of much does he.

Well, Pacquiao isn’t to take any tests as far as we know and let’s hope this fight shall be fought at the real Welterweight limit. Clottey will be much bigger on fight night, and maybe this could be Manny’s toughest test of his career. Clottey can give Manny one hell of a challenge and will be extremely hard to stop, soPacquiao will have to be ready for a 12 rounder. Clottey is coming back from a vacation in his birth place of Ghana to continue with negotiations.
