On the other hand.....
he could do what Manny did and come in at the weight he's most comfortable at and fight Pac then, even if its one weight class below their agreed weight.
Anyway, Pac usually comes in at around 148ish and when they fought the last time, Pac outweighed him by about 4 lbs only. Plus, they're practically the same size.
its a win-win for marquez. he'd get his chance at his desired fourth weight-class title AND fight Pac at his most optimum weight.

During a appearance on ESPN Deportes Golpe a Golpe news show, Marquez made very specific comments regarding the weight limit for a third fight against Pacquiao.
"The weight for a fight is a very delicate issue," said Marquez. "I am sure we could find a catchweight, Pacquiao does not come in at a full 147 pounds for his welterweight fights."

Marquez wants the catchweight for obvious reasons.
Arum wants the catchweight to cockblock Schaefer from using Canelo to match TR's offer.
Arum and Marquez both get what they wanted.

If he beats Pacquiao he will be, atleast the first legitimate 4 division Mexican champ. Arce won a title in his fourth division against WVJ, but one of them was an Interim belt. People who hate on catchweights for guys moving up in weight don't know the history of boxing
