Comments Thread For: Arum: Marquez, a Leading Candidate For Pacquiao Next

[LeadUppercut]

The most you could say was that he fought a close fight that could've gone either way.

No way man.

I have watched the second fight many times.

Marquez CLEARLY won that fight imho, and most of the developed world agree's with me.

A draw is under-valuing JMM's performance, which is what officially happened.

I simply cannot give the swing rounds to Manny in that fight.

In the three close rounds..... JMM did enough to win them, Manny did not.

As I say..... MOST people had Marquez winning that fight, including Ronnie Nathanielz and Manny's mum. They watched the fight together, Dionesia thought Marquez put on a fantastic performance

[Imatroll]

I guess JMM makes the most sense if not Mayweather

When I watch both 1 & 2 Pac is winning in all fight... only Pachater keep telling that the peewee drinkers won...

Then you are must be one of those "boxing fan's" that just watch Manny

Jeez dude, what fkn fight were you watching?

Marquez made Manny look like the bobble-head doll

Just check out the look on Manny's face before the winner was announced, he knew that lost that fight.

Pac was a beaten man, we all saw it.

[Khalid X]

I'm loving it.

What happened to all that "Manny is ducking Marquez" talk?

everyone was saying this fight made the most sense, but all of the sudden there is a lot of backtracking....smh

FWIW weight is no issue in this fight, although I know most of you haters will bring it up, because on fight night there will only be a 3lb difference.

In there second fight there was a 4lb difference, and it was a close fight, so how will a 3lb difference be that big of a deal???

[I_like_wendys]

For ****'s Sake...

Manny Pacquiao in every interview since Hatton(In some Variation)- I fight Who My PROMOTER, BOB ARUM, TELLS ME TO FIGHT


Bob Arum- Pac's gonna fight the Winner of Cotto-Marg.

Pac might fight Mayorga if he can beat Cotto.

JMM is definetly a frontfunner to fight Pac Next.


This is all Floyd Mayweather's fault how?

He wants a man who's KOing fighters at 12 LBS HIGHER than what his walking around weight is
(He eats a english breakfast before weigh ins. A ENGLISH BREAKFAST BEFORE WEIGHT INS. HE'S OVERSTUFFING HIMSELF, BEFORE WEIGHT INS.) To submit to more stringent blood testing than is normally used by the very, very, very crooked sport of boxing, due to State Commissions with no real knowledge or interest in the sport enforcing or pushing for BROADER, MORE ACCURATE TESTING.

MANNY PACQUIAO HAS NEVER FAILED A DRUG TEST

The last time he submitted to anything more than the same ol' same ol' testing required of a Farce Boxing commission, HE LOST.

[kymira]

So after JMM is beaten to a bloody pulp, whats next for him? I say a farewell fight with Morales in Mexico.

[Laborer]

Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum advised BoxingScene.com that WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez (52-5-1, 38KOs) would be a leading candidate to fight Manny Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38KOs) in the fall for the WBO welterweight title. Pacquiao is scheduled to defend his belt against Shane Mosley on May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

It is inept to bring up fight-night weight when discussing boxing.

I notice that you often do that.

The boxing world uses weight divisions.

The amount of conditioning and muscle-mass that you can take into a fight is strictly determined by how you fare at the official weigh-in, it is not determined at all by your rehydration weight, which can even be detrimental.

I am surprised that you didn't specify the weight difference in kilo's.

That is either blatant dishonesty, or total ignorance.

Doug Fischer knows whats up.....

" However, this fight only makes sense to me if it takes place at junior welterweight (and I would hope Marquez would weigh-in under 140 pounds). Why Pacquiao and company refuse to even consider fighting Marquez at 140 pounds (instead of the 144 or 147 they stipulate) is a very good question. The answer is obvious: they want every conceivable advantage against their aging but still-dangerous nemesis "

The b1tch-move to set up Marquez by refusing to fight unless they meet at 147, is just a continuation of a long line of b1tch-moves made by Team Pacquiao, and a classic indication of exactly how much respect they have for Marquez.

It's a b1tch move, plain and simple.
