What should JMM do to get the Pac rematch?

[horge]

All the hater trash aside...

It isn't up to JMM. The 'insult' issue is a smokescreen.
It's about money.

-JMM has to agree to a lesser cut of the purse
-GBP has to shoulder the bulk of promotions.

TR is crappy at promotion (look at Pac-Clottey) and MPP has serious
doubts about the draw that Pac-JMM III would have --look at the
JMM-Katsidis gate.

I think this can be made at 60-40 on both purse and promotional.
It'll be JMM's payday, but if he insists on 50-50, plus some dumb
shit like OST, then he's not in it to win it --he just wants to set
up a fiction that Pac (the only one to ever agree to a rematch
against JMM) is ducking HIM. Heck, he insists he won both times,
so I guess he's a fiction kind of guy.

Dumb Marquez violates the number one rule.

Never insult your cash cow if you are only asking for a favor, especially if the fight isn`t even made yet.

[Bastian Loc]

Pac doesn't fight boxers, he is gonna fight another shot faded stiff he knows he can beat at a catchweight.

I would've thought publicly challenging him would've been enough for JMM, but Pac is showing what a coward he is to everyone.


He's no better than Fraud.

needs to recognise he needs pac not pac needing him

he needs to accept bit lower split thn 50/50.

he needs to negotiate a middleground weight wise,allow manny to weigh anywhere from 140 to 147,prob pac goes 136 fight night,lowers pound or 2 for speed,he should be good enough to move up to about 145 fight night himself.

needs to get media campaign,stats evidence that hes bigger draw than shane, and him fighting pac is a bigger draw with more demand and interest.

be tough but respectfull to all involved.

Why is Marquez better than Mosley for Pac ???

After losing badly to Floyd, Marquez has been fighting nothing but recycled Lightweights in Juan Diaz and Michael Katsidis, already beaten by himself or other fighters he's already beaten.

And Marquez couldn't even fill up 5,000 seats in the arena!

He hasn't even tested the waters at Junior Welter.

JMM just looking for a big pay day, nothing more.

Are you st#pid or what?

Pac is a coward for not facing JMM but facing the likes of Margarito, Cotto, Clottey ???

WTF...

[M3RRY]

Nothing will get Pac to accept a 3rd fight with JMM. Marquez has done it all...he even flew all the way to Pac's hometown to call him out and that didn't even work. I say Pac just does not want to fight JMM again, and I don't blame him.

Money..Give Pac whatever he is looking for for money. It would strike up more interest for the fight. If JMM wants it as bad as he says, then he will take a pay cut.

jmm needs to play with oscar de la hoya in bed and then he has to kiss bob arum's ass to make it happen.

kinda sucks that top rank-golden boy feud restricts respective fighters to fight against each other.

[DondiNeverLeft]

I am with most of the boxing fans here not wanting the Mosley fight. No point to this fight except maybe for economic reasons if I have to believe Arum.

I want to see Pac fight Berto, Martinez, or Jmm. I have to agree with Arum statement the Berto fight is unmarketable. Though, I believe this fight will add to Pac’s legacy since Berto is a young champ with decent speed and power. Arum being a businessman, this fight might be the last on his list.

Martinez won’t fight lower than 154, so this fight won’t be happening at the near future. That leaves us with the remaining Jmm option. Marquez however, insulted Pac and is still doing it. Knowing Pac as a proud man, this fight should be at the bottom of his list. Pac however, is also a gentleman and wants to fight for the fans… What then should jmm do to convince Pac to give him the rematch and payday?

What are the boxingscene members thought on these? Would apologizing for the insults and sacrificing on the split do it?

Why dont he just go the Cellestino Cabellero route and be totally disrespectful to Pac. Half the losers and fans will say Pac is scared to fight him if he doesn't fight.

[Pacquiao'd]

I agree that JMM deserves the fight.

I disagree that Pacquiao should come down in weight. Pac will weigh in 144-146 anyway, so no need for a catchweight. It wouldn't help JMM at all, he just came in under the LW limit again....he's a little guy.

At this point (@ww) Marquez has absolutely no chance. But he should get the fight over Mosley. Thing is...it won't happen early in the year...it'll probably happen around Mexican independence day.

Pac should fight Mosley in April or May...then Marquez in September (although he'll be 38 or so by that time). Pacquiao gets two $20m+ paydays. JMM gets his last big contract.

**** that. all the weight ****** lations pac has put on other people.

if pac can make 140 like people claim. then he needs to go to 140.

if funny how yall for full of double standards. its fair for manny to get people to come down but not fair for him to go down.
