    This was sent to the WBC from Pacquiao's advisor;

    “we would respectfully request and propose the following: 1. That Manny Pacquiao retain his status as WBC lightweight champion. 2. That a sanctioning fee of $20,000 be paid by Manny to the WBC for the bout with De La Hoya on 12-6-08. 3.That Manny be allowed to have one more fight after the 12-6-08 bout before he is obligated to make a mandatory defense of his 135 lb lightweight title. The requested additional bout would again be a non-title fight in the first ¼ of 2009 at a higher weight class against Ricky Hatton or Floyd Mayweather. 4. As to the outstanding sanction fee owed from the 3-15-08 Marquez bout as brought to our attention by the WBC in the amount of $30,000. This shall be verified by Manny and Top Rank’s accounting department and if confirmed be paid to the World Boxing Council.”

    Also, apparently the WBC has a long standing rule where their champions have to pay a sanctioning fee even in non title fights. That's why Pac owes money for the Hoya fight and Pavlik owes money for his last two fights.

    Fighting Floyd early next year seems unlikely. We'll see I'm sure he'd get the Hatton fight a lot sooner than PBF.

    I'd like to see Pac vs both those guys. Think he might be too much for Hatton now but it would be good to see how he dealt with Floyd's skill

    The Hatton fight in Britain would be a huge money maker, thats if Hatton looks impressive in his fight with Malinaggi

    Absolutely, Hatton would out-muscle Pacquiao. But it wont be easy!

    Hatton won't be around too much longer but I'd like to see him do well. I think the bodyshots would take their toll on Pac.

    And Mayweather thoroughly outpoints Pac and uses his aggressiveness against him....
