    Oscar De La Hoya was pleased to see Manny Pacquiao coming out and standing up on his hind legs by making himself heard in a press conference from his home country of the Philippines where Pacquiao said he wants to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. next.

    De La Hoya has wanted Pacquiao to speak up and let Arum know who he wants to fight for quite some time. De La Hoya thinks Pacquiao has been too passive with Arum.

    De La Hoya said this on his twitter: “Bob Arum is under a lot of pressure from Pacquiao. Apparently, he [Pacquiao] did an interview in the Philippines and he wants Mayweather next. It’s about time Pacquiao demands the fight to Bob Arum. Let’s give thanks to Manny Paquiao for having a press conference wanting the Mayweather fight. Looks like Pacquiao finally spoke for himself. Apparently he wants Mayweather next.”

    I think this is the most progress we've ever seen for a Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight
