Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum has already explained the reasons on why Juan Manuel Marquez was overlooked for an opportunity to fight Manny Pacquiao on May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Arum says Golden Boy Promotions, on behalf of Marquez - "overpriced" the Mexican boxer. According to a source with knowledge of Marquez's demands, the three-division champion had asked for a $5 million guarantee, while making $5 per pay-per-view buy above 500,000, for $8.5 million total if the fight generated 1.2 million buys.

I dont think this is an excuse. This is just Arum saying "I want more money."
Clottey was not a PPV boxer but since Pacquiao and Clottey in the same stable he made it happend.

Arum just doesnt want to use the last three fights to a non exposed boxer.
Remember this could be pacquiaos last fight..

But arum is an a$$hole for ruining Pacquiao's quote "I fight for my fans"

Honestly, Berto need only be there so long as Pac-PBF isn't happening. There just aren't many opponents for Pac right now. Berto would get slaughtered, but who else is left standing? Marquez and that's about it. We've seen that fight twice. No problem with a 3rd outing but Berto is a fresh opponent. After Shane, I want Berto to get his chance.

So while he waits he should fight Marga's or Cintron and not another lay down fighter..

I guess fighting on HBO regularly for millions of dollars isn't enough exposure for Arum...
