Juan Manuel Marquez Wants To Force a Pacquiao Trilogy

[Joe2608]

I'd be rooting for JMM but i think Pac-man will beat him again (though i scored both fights a draw)

[HappyBoxingFan]

Juan Manuel Marquez (49-4-1, 36 KOs) is not done chasing Manny Pacquiao just yet. The Mexican champion believes that a win over Juan Diaz on February 28 will lead to a trilogy bout with Pacquiao. The HBO televised bout against Diaz will take place in the Baby Bull's hometown of Houston, Texas at the Toyota Center. [details]

He deserves one. I hope he gets it. But Pac can't fight everyone in a year.

Let it go Juanma!!! for real

He has a valid Point in saying he won BOTH fights..It's certainly debatable.. But he is Worrying me with his obsession..

The fights were very close, yes, but Pac won both fights imo.....by the slimmest of margins.
Had the judge in the first fight correctly scored the 3 kncokdowns in the 1st round a 10-6 round instead of 10-7, Pac would have won...

And for the 2nd fight, i had it even until Pac dropped Marquez, so i had Pac winning by a point.....

Anyways, back to this article, if Marquez wins, then he should fight Campbell because not only do i think he would win, BUT the leverage of being a unified champion would have people clamoring more for a trilogy than than are right now and Pac WOULD be forced to fight him again......imo

Nate would crush JMM. He would be too big for him and we know JMM has a tendency to fall down when he gets hit on the chin. Nate by 5th rd KO over JMM. I would pick Funeka over JMM also but in 8.

If hatton beats pacquiao, then manny should fight marquez if he beats juan diaz at a 135! The fight woulnd not mean anything at 140, niether one would have a title. If manny beats hatton then marquez should fight manny at 140..

i don't think pac is going back to 135.

I would love to see a third fight but people just want to ignore the fact that boxing is a business and pac is just after teh money right now. Hes at the tailend of his carrer and wants to make the most of it.... if a fight with JMM can draw more cash that him fighting hatton id be saying taht pac is ducking JMM.

Ugh what do you mean Hatton doesn't have a title he is the recognized Junior welterweight champ of the world what other title does he need?

How Is a third fight not a big cash cow? The second fight was Pacman's most successful PPV event next to the De La Hoya Fight.
