There are unverified reports that boxing champ and Sarangani Congressman Manny Pacquiao will be judging the Miss Universe 2011 beauty pageant.

According to forum talks and blog posts, Pacquiao, who is currently on a 4-city global tour promoting his upcoming fight with Juan Manuel Marquez this November, will fly to Sao Paolo after completing his current commitments. However, there has been no official confirmation from the Miss Universe organizers yet.

A list of Miss Universe 2011 judges came out recently and it contains only the names of Helios Castroneves (racing champ), Connie Chung (journalist), Isabeli Fontana (supermodel), Vivica Fox (actress and TV producer), Adrienne Maloof (actress), Lea Salonga (movie and theater actress), and Amelia Vega (beauty queen).

The 2011 Miss Universe Coronation Night is set to be staged at the Credicard Hall in São Paulo, Brazil on Monday, September 12 at 9 p.m. ET (September 13, 9 a.m., Manila Time).
