Is Pacquiao Ducking JMM since Marquez is asking for a 5 million Guaranteed Purse?

Pacquiao's Opponent Guaranteed Purse when they Fought Pacquiao - Not include PPV's. Clottey got $1.5 Million Miguel Cotto got$4 Million Antonio Margarito got $3million David Diaz got 800k Juan Manuel Marquez 1st Fight with Pacquiao $500k Marquez will be the 1st fighter to Demand 5 million Dollars chasing Pacquiao like he's Pacquiao's girlfriend claiming he beat Pac twice asking for a money higher than what Cotto and Margarito got . Is Pacquiao Ducking Marquez? Where is the proof that JMM is asking for a $5 million guaranteed purse?

If I may interject, I think this is what is destroying our beloved sport of boxing: EXTREME COMMERCIALISM. Sure it is prizefighting and as much as I am a fan of Pacquiao and Mayweather, I am dismayed by both in having "fixed" fights to milk the cow, so to speak. As a visual artist myself, these are the very same issues. Well fabie, Pacquiao's taking it to a whole new level right now, with Mosley next and the Cotto-Margarito II winner after, all preceded by Margarito and Clottey. Such nonsense. But like I said...every Pac fan pretends to dislike his opponent. Then three weeks before the fight they start talking about being worried, and how opponent x is dangerous. Same sh*t every time. Pass the salt.

I'm sure it is. How much do you think this will sell, E? It's damn infuriating what's going on right now.

jmm needs to submit a new proposal with him getting $2 mill guarantee and a small ppv upside. asking for $5 million = I don't want the fight.

Yes it will be. When you look at legendary fighters of old like Henry Armstrong, Joe Louis, Jack Johnson and even Robinson you only see the HOF on their resume. (and of course title defenses and how many championships he had). You don't look at the no names they had beat or how the fight went or how old or past the HOF opponent was. You always talk about Robinson-Lamotta etc, Henry-Ross etc, Louis-Schmelling etc, Johnson-Jeffries etc. Yeah...there's a difference between those fights and this one. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

to all the pactards who dont think marquez doesnt have the right to demand 25% of the purse against pac because he makes more money then i guess you agree that pac should agree to accurate random blood testing from floyd because mayweather makes more money than pac. go ahead and expose your double standards for your god lord pacquiao as you always do savages.

and somehow HE will get the 5 million JMM wants I heard that price for Shane is fairly agreeable to Bob for a guy who can't draw and can't get people to watch his fights on TV I'm sure it is. How much do you think this will sell, E? It's damn infuriating what's going on right now.

Paquiao is ducking marques that's final

Paquiao is ducking Marquez hands down, Marquez has fought higher quality of fighters and ko or tko them one after another while paquiao has concentrated in fighter that his weight draining. If paquiao can beat marquez so easilly now just take fight.

Mosley should be fourth on that list, somehow he's #1. and somehow HE will get the 5 million JMM wants I heard that price for Shane is fairly agreeable to Bob for a guy who can't draw and can't get people to watch his fights on TV

True. Bradley would be on my top list Followed by Berto. I have already wished that Alexander would have a minor injury so their fight won't happen and force Manny to fight Tim. IMHO the Mosley fight is a joke, but 50 years down the line, it will be important. But fuck 50 years down the line, now is what's important. :D It won't be important 50 years down the line if it isn't important now. And even if it is...and that's what Manny's shooting for...that is just disgusting, pathetic and disgraceful.

Manny is obviously ducking this fight but he should. Marquez sucks with his demand purse and he is around 4th or 3rd on the list of Pacquiao opponents. Maybe when Mosley, Berto and Bradley got struck by a lightning then JMM will be the first choice. Mosley should be fourth on that list, somehow he's #1.

Exactly, there is no reason JMM should get so little. He's not some bum, or Arum stiff. He's gonna be in there taking punches too, giving him such a small cut is an insult. He could've asked for $5 dollars, he wasn't getting this fight.

Marquez deserves 5 mil if pacquiao will probably get 25 mil. I think that's more than fair. That's what's wrong boxing, these ****ed up purses. Exactly, there is no reason JMM should get so little.

5 million is nothing. Marquez is worth more than Margarito and Cotto. Pac is ducking Marquez. Again. lol they are not fighting for e-money:smashfrea i even doubt hbo will bankroll $20 million guarantee for this fight. probably in the range of 15-18 million. if jmm will get 5 million, pac will get less than what he got in his last fight (against marg).

Marquez deserves the money - whereas Manny's previous opponents didn't - but a $5mil guarantee from a rival promoter is one way to guarantee Arum says no, that much is for sure.

5 million is nothing. Marquez is worth more than Margarito and Cotto. Pac is ducking Marquez. Again.

How does Marquez deserve less than Margarito? handwrap scandal aside, margarito has a bigger fanbase than jmm. his fight against mosley drew a record crowd and filled up staples

i think arum is willing to give jmm whatever he got fighting floyd...that should be fair and acceptable jmm should be contented with that.
