Top Rank just schooled GBP

Marquez doens't have to sign with anyone. He's accomplished enough to be able to demand big money fights on his own and he's been around the game long enough to know what kind of money he can get. And without a promoter taking his money he can get much bigger purses. He could easily fight Pac for 5-10 million, and win or lose Rios for another 3-5 million. Judah wants to fight him, that could get him 5 million. He would be stupid to sign with Golden Boy, who paid him only 3 million in his biggest purse compared to the 20-25 million they paid Mayweather in that fight.

Marquez has no bargaining power!!!

Secure a fight with Pacquiao......but he is not in the position to dictate the terms regarding weight.....

It's welterweight at 147 lbs....anyway JMM could come in anywhere below 147lbs....It's up to him if he wants to come in even at 135lbs.......Marquez can't force Pacman to come down to his desired weight of 140-143lbs

I can see Manny giving JMM a 144 catchweight... His camp did say they want to outdo Floyd. To outdo Floyd, all Manny needs to do is make weight.

But you are right, beggars can't be choosers... coincidentally, beggars also like to drink their own pee.

schaefer just got ellerbe'd

pacquiao-marquez III is a done deal more or less and gbp is out of the picture.

Which sucks for the fans....again. I mean, who actually wants to see that fight later this year?
