    According to WBO President Francisco "Paco" Varcarcel, his organization's welterweight champion, Manny Pacquiao (54-3, 38KOs), will return in the month of June. The WBO President states that Pacquiao's promoter, Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, told him Pacquiao was going to fight in June.

    "I was told by Bob Arum that Pacquiao would fight in June, not in May" Varcarcel said.

    The likely date for Pacquiao's return is June 9th. The most likely opponent, at the moment, is current WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto (37-2, 30KOs) of Puerto Rico. Pacquiao previously stopped Cotto in the twelfth round in 2009.

    A fight between Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. does not seem like a probable scenario for the first half of 2012. Mayweather has a return date of May 5th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas - and then he reports to jail on June 1, where the boxer will serve out a portion of a 90-day sentence for a domestic incident.

    ha, **** Pac and Arum, they're just gonna keep chasing the easy money. I would put it all on Arum but Manny seems happy enough not taking on new challenges.

    Pacquiao's wife says that Pacquiao choosed his next opponent himself by watching tapes :

    2.0% voted for Cotto?

    I'd like to point out how outrageous it is that ANYBODY didn't vote for Floyd. I'd also like to point out that the fighter that got the least amount of votes is the fighter they chose. I doubt they even looked at polls like these.

    If you don't know by now, Bob Arum cares about Bob Arum.

    Floyd is being allowed to play mind games all by himself.

    Acting all bossy like a punk is not the way to treat those you dont like and want to fight so bad as he says he does.

    Fight never going to happen....until

    Until they are seen old, and claims of being shot and past there prime can be used as useful excuses as to why the eventual loser lost this matchup.:hey
