[Title] => Whos next for Manny?
[Summary] => A mandatory title defense is next for International Boxing Federation (IBF) superbantamweight champion Manny Pacquiao and it looks like leading contender Jose Luis Valbuena of Venezuela will be the challenger in the opposite corner.
Valbuena, 32, is ranked No. 3 by the IBF, which has declared the No. 1 and No. 2 slots vacant. The practice of leaving open slots in the top 10 allows the IBF to arrange "elimination" bouts where it can charge sanction fees. In the IBFs latest ratings, there were no No. 1 contenders in 14 of 17 weight divisions.
