    Why is Pacquiao even considering Malignaggi over a Marquez trilogy?

    There is nothing remotely competitive about a fight with Malignaggi, not to mention lucrative. Marquez isn't lined up to fight anyone right now (he won't wait on Hatton to make up his mind) so what's stopping this? The only plausible and acceptable reason is that Pacquiao wants the trilogy to be his last fight. I know Roach has said he wants it, Pacquiao claims he wants it, so make it happen. I just don't know another fight that would make him more money aside from Mayweather and at the same time not be a huge slap in the face to boxing fans. Pacquiao-Malignaggi is a hard slap in the face.

    Probably because Marquez also wants to employ the random Olympic style drugs tests.

      Pacquiao vs Malignaggi would be a complete mismatch. Marquez and Bradley are his best options, besides Mayweahter.

        because Marquez is coming off a loss to Mayweather?

          I don't think he would. The payday is to big to pass up and now is his best chance to get the third fight.

              There is no shame in that. What does that matter either. There is history behind these two, its not completely undeserving.

                    Pacquiao beat Marquez twice and KO'd him 4x.
                    Theres no way he can win over Pacquiao coz he's a counter puncher. He caught Pacquiao several times but dont have the power to KO Pacquiao.

                    How can i Marquez beat Pacquiao?
                    Marquez cant beat Pacquiao even if he is juiced with a pee.,
