Seven-division boxing champion Manny Pacquiao has agreed to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. next year, a television report said Friday night.
Pacquiao confirmed this in an interview with GMA 7’s "24-Oras" after emerging from a meeting with Top Rank big boss Bob Arum Friday night.
After agreeing for the March 13, 2010 fight with Mayweather, Pacquiao instructed Arum to iron out all details in order for both boxers to finally seal the deal.
Pacquiao said Mayweather is not a good role model for kids, who regularly look up to athletes as their heroes.
“He (Mayweather) is full of thrash talk whom the children should not emulate."
Despite the proximity of the May, 2010 election, in which he will running for congressman in Saranggani, Pacquiao agreed to fight Mayweather.
