LAS VEGAS: Manny Pacquiao hopes his stunning victory on Saturday over Miguel Cotto will put him in line for a mega welterweight showdown against Floyd Mayweather in 2010.
Filipino southpaw Pacquiao sent a strong signal he is ready to lead boxing's revival by taking Cotto's World Boxing Organization belt and claiming his seventh world title in seven different weight classes.
He scored a final-round technical knockout, putting the Puerto Rican champion down as the referee stopped the onslaught 55 seconds into the 12th at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
