Comments Thread For: Team Juan Manuel Marquez: We Want Erik Morales Fight!

[bluetuazon]

I kind of agree up to an extent that JMM should have to prove himself against Khan or Berto in order for him to get a third shot at Pacquiao. But why all the hate and venom towards JMM from these clueless Pac tards?

They keep bashing his wins over Katsidis, J Diaz, and Casa. But why is it that when the third fight with JMM was hot Pac took half the money to fight an undercard fighter (which is what David Diaz did, fight on the Pac-JMM 2 undercard) and went the distance against a guy with only one stoppage in Ramon Montano? You can bash JMM's 135 resume all you want. But at least Katsidis was a live body unlike Hatton and Oscar.

ok ice.....ill just remind you that oscar was 3/1 favorite going into the fight...again..nobody gave manny a chancei this fight...hoya chose the weight..not manny...FACT!

hatton was linear champ and was never beaten at 140.....so he is live as u want him to be....FACT!

i dont mind people bashing pac...but lets stick with facts here not some hate infused opinions...

Diaz was the light weight champ, katsidis was a mandatory. And how the fuck can a lightweight be ducking Khan when they are not even in the same weight class? he doesn't have to fight him, eventually the fight will happen though. The only good thing from this fight is that Morales will be getting a huge paycheck, and he gets to fight the guy he called out after coming back from his retirement.

oh but mosley can?Marquez fought on thanksgiving weekend,Nobody gonna
travel to a fight when there spending time with there family.

Floyd Mayweather/Shane Mosley
Floyd $22.5M
Shane $7M

Floyd Mayweather/JMM
Floyd $10M
Marquez $3.2M

Looking at the figures above I would say YES, Shane earned the $5M guarantee against Pac. Afterall, he is a bigger draw than JMM.

Marquez asking for twice his Mayweather/JMM earnings is in a way saying he doesn’t want the fight. At least, that is how many people see it.

I hope JMM learns the business side of the sport. If he does, he'll come out financially sound in the long run.

They are doing the right thing by taking the Morales fight.

The Pacquiao fight is gonna happen in September on the Mexican Independence weekend.

Amir would kill JMM anyway.

This is in response to that guy who claims Pacquiao deserves accolades for beating Oscar and Hatton. Let's revisit those guys conditions.

Hatton - Outside of beating a feather fisted Malinaggi, he would've gotten KOd by Lazcano if the ref hadn't have helped him out with his shoes and his face looked like hamburger afterward.

De La Hoya - Was getting beat up by Valero in sparring and got marked up by Stevie Forbes.

I mean, I'm willing to admit that I thought it was kind of an opportunistic move on JMM's part to fight Juan Diaz in a rematch and I don't like this Morales fight either. But what separates me from the Pac tards is I'm willing to apply everything across the board and even though I like JMM better than Pacquiao I don't let myself get blinded by unconditional worship.

And the thing with JMM is he was coming off a loss to Floyd when he decided to take a fight with Juan Diaz which was highly winnable. Pacquiao is in his prime fighting one tune up right after another.

People bash Katsidis as an easy win. But after all he did KO a top contender who had beaten Prescott and he was the mandatory.

at this point its all about who makes the most money and a morales fight is the one that makes the most...

According to Mexi****s, Morales was already shot, Washed Up and a Zombie 5 Years ago that was in 2005... 5 YEARS AGO

What is Morales 5 years after? Living Dead

Marquez is fighting a LIVING DEAD.. A 1 dimensional Fighter Katsidis, a Bum Juan Diaz who can't beat a feather Fisted Maliggnagi and a 39 year old Casamayor..

You have the nerve to hype Marquez recent opponents.
