Despite recent reports that he's only interested in facing Floyd Mayweather Jr., it appears Manny Pacquiao will play the waiting game before dismissing all other options for his next fight. Although his next bout is already set for October 17th, he has yet to decide who will be the lucky winner of the PacMan Sweeptakes and it looks like Floyd Mayweather Jr., Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez and others are all still in the running. Of course, that being said, it should already be clear who the winner will be.
Miguel Cotto insists he will have too much for Joshua Clottey on June 13, a fight that will be shown live on Setanta Sports.

Cotto has been linked with massive fights against Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather but in the Ghanaian he faces a tough opponent.
The two-weight champion is confident as long as he is on his game, there is no chance of Clottey leaving Madison Square Garden with the WBO welterweight title though.
Speaking recently to Sky Sports, Hatton claimed he feels he is the “Boss” of Pacquiao thanks to his size, power and skills. “I really think I’m the boss over my opponents with my size and strength and with my extra boxing ability,” said Hatton.
