Comments Thread For: Photos: Marquez Holds Presser, Says He May Retire

You need to be tested for Pactartation. The butthurt blinds you, you know it to be true.

What you know to be true is that if Roidquez rematches Pac, it'll be over for that old man. Look at him, he's still bruised. What if it went 12? He'd have no face.

ffs man let it die that rivalry is closed.

no it aint.

its 2-1-1 pac

[PPAAKKMMAANN]

Why do all these Roidquez nut huggers keep saying he got the better of Pac when in fact Pac won 2 and Roidquez only 1? Pac is clearly the better man and is clean unlike dude with a cheating strength coach

no it aint.

its 2-1-1 pac

this ain't basketball.

rivalry is over.

marquez is a great fighter but if he pulls this **** ..i cant respect it , sorry!

Explain why you can't respect it? Marquez is 39 years old and has been boxing for 20 years as a pro, why shouldn't he retire on top, or fight somebody in the Azteca and finally get the payday he deserves?

If he retires, he retires.

I wouldn't mind seeing a 5th fight though. The fourth was action packed and was extremely competitive. I don't know why people are saying the rivalry is closed. JMM wasn't dominating Pacquiao and then evidently finished him with a KO. He was losing that fight and was in terrible shape before scoring the KO.

He should retire, or fight one last easy fight and retire. He shouldn't give Pac a rematch. He will never top that victory and is only getting older. Had Pac knocked Marquez out, they never would have given him a rematch. They would have said there was no money in it.

The smartest decision for Marquez is retiring. Totally agree... BUT... Had Pac knocked Marquez out, they never would have given him a rematch"... wtf?? What about Pac/Marquez II and III ??

He worked hard and dedicated himself to defeating Manny Pacquiao for the past year and a half or so. The question is can he sustain that kind of hunger, motivation and dedication for lesser opponents or even a 5th fight with Pacquiao.

At the age of 40, I would think it would be hard to motivate yourself in a fight with Bradley or Rios after going through what Marquez has over the past year.

becuase hes on fire right now ..becuase there were so many what ifs in the 4rth fight..becuase pac is worthy of a rematch..becuase pac gave him one , so he should do the same..becuase it was a damn good fight ..bacause it's intriguing ..how's that?

that if he walks away from all this , it would mean he's not willing to take risk againts pac again..thats why i cant respect it...
