this is one of the reasons why i like pac so much. he simply loves to fight.

"Kung ako siguro, Valero or Hatton, kahit sino naman," (If it's up to me whether it's Valero or Hatton, it doesn't matter who) Pacquiao said in a press conference after arriving Friday morning from Los Angeles, California.

"Si Valero, kung ano-ano mga sinasabi. Darating din ang panahon na mag-aabot din kami sa ring, mag-aabot din ang landas namin." (Valero is saying a lot of things. Eventually we'll meet atop the ring, our paths will cross)

He declined to issue statements about Valero. "Ayaw ko lang magsalita ng marami dahil wala pa namang...pero marami siyang sinasabi sa akin."(I don't want to say any more 'coz the fight isn't there yet... but he's saying a lot of things to me.)

i especially love this part:

With regard to the possibility of a clash with Hatton, Pacquiao said," 'Yung Hatton kasi, talagang gusto noon, totoo na fight, bakbakan, suntukan talaga. Magandang fight, talagang napakaganda at saka may lakas din 'yun so kailangan ko at least 3 months na training for Hatton fight" (Regarding Hatton, I really like that fight eversince, it's a real fight, a brawl, a punch out. It's going to be a beautiful fight, really beautiful and he's also strong so I need at least 3 months training.)

and this :

"Sabi ko nga, para mas maraming tao, mas maraming fans na sisigaw sa kanya, kung kami maglaban, dadayuhin ko siya sa London," (As I was saying if we're going to fight, so that there will be more audience, more fans who will root for him, I'll go and fight him in London), he said.
