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

    Anyone else feel that Marquez at 140 is more of a threat to Pac than Margs at 147 because of styles ?

    Or am I alone in this ?

      Dude look at me for example. If they do fight in Arlington. Myself will be contributing like over $1000 to the economy there. Hotel, food, tickets, etc. And that's just me. Imagine more people??

      Do they REALLY want to give this away?? They'd be ****** to do so.

        At this point in their careers, Pac easily bests JMM at 140, let alone 147.
        Let JMM retire as top 10 p4p.
        You're pinoy so your biased opinion doesn't matter, JMM at 140 has a better chance at beating Pacquiao than Margarito at 150.

        How does Pacquiao vs Marg make more PPV sales? Last time I heard here in Tijuana everyone believes he's getting knocked out and 'aint really excited for the fight .

            Difference?? Golden Boy Promotions.

            What risk? He punches like a girl and his chin is broken.

                Something to prove
                Chin better than MOST boxers
                Really good brawler
                Good height/weight(unless that sneaky hydration clause is true) advantage

                If you say he punches like a girl I bet you won't let him punch you in the face.

                  JMM at 140 is a joke. He barely beat Diaz, who is borderline bum. The current top 10 JWW's will easily knock JMM the **** out.

                  Pac-Marg will easily make over 1mil buys. Put all your points on the line and let's make a wager.

                    It's a combination of GBP and Nacho Beristein (dude screwed Marquez out of a 3rd fight a while back) who are ****in it up for Marquez.

                    If I'm Marquez I would take a 70-30 split in favor of Pacquiao, and try to beat him solely for legacy.

                    You can't chase down a fight and expect 50-50, so until Marquez tells Beristein and GBP to STFU and just make the fight, he will never get Manny.

                    I mean they turned down a third fight, went to John's backyard, and lost a decision. To top it off Marquez fought for peanuts when even a 20% split in Manny's favor would have been way more than the John fight.

                    I like Marquez, but those around him are killing it for him.
