      Marquez and his manager Nacho Beristain did not do his career any favors. After the bout with Pacquiao, Marquez rejected a career high $750,000 for the rematch and demanded $1.5 million, which was the entire license fee offered by HBO. In 2005, Top Rank offered Marquez $1.5 million to face Erik Morales in the main event on an HBO pay-per-view that was scheduled to take place in the Fall of 2006. Again Marquez rejected the offer, requesting an unrealistic $3.5 million, a figure that according to Top Rank, was an amount that even the more marketable Erik Morales had never been guaranteed in his entire career.


      On March 4, 2006, Marquez went would fly down to Indonesia, for a measly $31,500 dollar payday, to face hometown fighter Chris John for his WBA featherweight title. In what seemed to be a Marquez win by decision, he was stunned when all three scorecards were in favor of champion Chris John, by lopsided margins. Marquez lost two points in the bout for low blows, and even without the point deductions, John would have still won the bout by a comfortable margin.





      and this guy is calling out pacquiao !!
      Who is the author of this article lol...Where are Morales and Marquez's comments. does anyone know why he turned Morales down? This article is a sham...No reasons are given.
