Marquez: My First Choice is Pacquiao, Then Hatton"

[UTFISH]

Cotto was drained. You could see it in his eyes and he got tired quickly, a sure sign. Pac weighed 144, so 9lbs, and 138 for Hatton after 2 meals and a 5000 calorie/day diet if you believe Roach, so 3 lbs should be no sweat. JMM had on shorts and a BIG gold chain and pendant and looked slightly pudgy for the first time at 144. Pacman was drained against JMM @ 130. @ 135 Pacman v JMM is another good fight and weight is easily made depending on which side of his mouth Roach is speakin out of. JMM has no chance at 147. Pac is naturally bigger.

And JMM only came in at 142 for mayweather.

I really don't think the size between Pacman and Marquez is that dramatic. I just think Pacmans style is more suited for fighting larger opponents which is why Marquez gave him fits in their first two fights. Marquez is a finesse fighter who counter punches the crap out of you and Manny is always gonna have trouble with that kind of fighter.

EXCUSES, just EXCUSES

Yeah it is. The only way JMM has a chance above 130lbs division is if he gets on a program that puts muscle on like Pac has, but I don't think he has that capacity for that. Some people are just bigger boneded.

It doesn't matter if he was on a program--Marquez does not have the legs to carry the extra muscle--that is the biggest problem.

I like how all you pusssies say JMM should stop asking for a 3rd fight but nevermind out of all these superstars that Pacman has been destroying over and over again JMM remains the only fighter in the last 5-6 years that could stand up to Pacman and fight him on even terms. I think Pacman would probably win a third fight between them but I think Marquez will push Pacman to the limit just like any good arch rival would do. The truth is Marquez earned a third shot at Pacman seeing as Hatton, Oscar, and Cotto couldn't do **** to pacman.

Bro, you hit the nail on the head. What I also don't understand is how a lot of so-called boxing fans can chastise a great fighter like Marquez for WANTING TO FIGHT THE BEST. Is Pacquiao not considered #1 P4P right now? Like you said, Marquez has earned his right to fight him. There is a reason why Pacquiao, Arum, and Roach have up until now not mentioned Marquez as a possibility.

These are the same people that criticize Mayweather for not facing "the best" yet turn around and talk sh#t when Marquez wants a third match, with "the best". One thing is for sure, if more fighters were like Marquez and chased the path of most resistance, there would be no such thing as "MMA" and talk of boxing "dying". Wise up you ****ing hypocrites.

[Stoppage]

If JMM fought Pacquiao, right now, he'd get destroyed.

[Boxing Scene]

JMM is a joke above 135 and by the time he gets Paq he'll be almost 40, and he's getting destroyed.

[PACsiwon]

hey

a third fight between pacquiao vs marquez is a must than to mayweather that keeps on running. but marquez should make tune up fight either to hatton or cotto before he face pacquiao for the third time after a loss to mayweather in his last fight.

[Spacey1991]

In fairness, JMM would be getting in the way if he were to get to Manny first. But nobody could find it in them to blame him... including me.
