Why is Bob Arum really wanting to put Pac against Tony instead of JMM?

Margs brings more money.

Heeeeeeeeeellll no he doesn't, Not more than what JMM would bring.

You are right up to a point, That he makes more money keeping it in the house but overall PPV sales and Gate revenue. JMM is the bigger draw.

Because that old, fat **** Marquez wanted a 140 lbs., a 50/50 split AND OSTs. So Bob Arum told him to drink piss. But turns out, he was going to do that anyway.

Seriously, At 140 this fight would be HUUUGE. Even though JMM isn't what he used to be this fight would be crazy good. JMM has always wanted to get his revenge and hates the sh-t out of Pacquiao. He wouldn't quit. Another instant classic.

You really don't know why? Let me give you a clue. Look up who promotes Marquez. Then look up who promotes Margarito.

Get back to me if you still haven't figured this out.

JMM vs Pac does much better PPV buys, Higher gate revenue and pretty much in any other aspect. He would still make more money.

no way the jmm vs pac ppv did less than 500k i believe. marg vs pac will do min 750k and min 50k in dallas.

Marquez - Risk

Margarito - Risk

Difference?? Golden Boy Promotions.

Pac-Marg would definetely make more money. Mayweather-JMM only made 1mil PPV. I see Pac-Marg easily eclipsing 1mil buys.

At this point in their careers, Pac easily bests JMM at 140, let alone 147.
Let JMM retire as top 10 p4p.
