Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Marquez is Likely Next For Manny, Says Arum

[ROSS CALIFORNIA]

Floyd fight not happening
after Shane, that leaves JMM 3, Berto (or Ortiz), and Bradley
want Pac-Bradley most, but JMM 3 is ok to pass the time
good chance Bradley fights Khan anyway

The Floyd fight could happen if Manny struggles with JMM more than expected. Probably very little chance of that, though. I know it really looks like Floyd is scared, but the more time that goes by, the more likely he might go ahead and fight Pac. I haven't given up on that fight yet. Too much money to be made.

My gawd Arum handles Miss Pacman so well its not even funny. Put Manny in there with big names but who are well on the decline. Arum should get an award for it. Cotto beats Clottey lets fight Clottey, Mosley knocks Margacheato out who gets suspended for a year, lets fight Margacheato, Floyd whips Mosley's ass for 12 rounds who on his next fight can't even get passed Mora, Lets fight Mosely. Now Arum wants an JMM who at first Arum says he wouldn't be able to sell that fight and who got his ass whiped for 12 rounds by Floyd also but who cares about that lets fight JMM. Arum and his camp is a joke.

Then, Arum changed tack and stated that Marquez was too small and that he should "prove himself" by fighting Berto.

Yeah right heard this one before,I'll believe it when I see the press conference. Pacquiao's still afraid and Marquez isn't coming off a loss yet.

[BoxingFollower]

No, I don't think Manny will fight Marquez, even though I think he can NOW in this time in there career easily beat Marquez.

I think Pacquiaos next fight, will be Matthew Hatton or even Zab Judah.

I can see it now, Bob Arum is standing outside of a staduim with a black tuex on..."Floyd has been ducking Matthew so we'll fight him or Zab Judah almost beat Mayweather even though it was 5 years ago"

[RSBonos]

Will you losers log off until/if the diva ever comes out of retirement...how many future HOF can you discredit? Haters gonna hate.

[Uturn]

Good fight. Marquez has wanted it, so Pacquiao should shut up stop.

[Ko King 212]

People jumped down his throat because he picked Mosley instead of Marquez. He picks Marquez and people still jump down his throat.

No the problem is when Floyd fought Mosley he was old. When he fought Jmm he was 2 weight classes above what he fought at. Now a year and some change later he fighting Mosley who everybody said was old and Jmm at ww.

Bob is not going to let the Floyd fight happen so boxing fans should just move on.


This how promo will go. Bob will claim to want the Floyd fight and sign on another fight. All while promoting that fight by using Floyd as the backdrop.

[Seleção No. 13]

I really really thought Marquez would have signed with Golden Boy by now because of his inactivity, but it looks like he's waiting out for this Pacquiao-Mosley fight to be done so he can negotiate with Arum. Perhaps he's looking for that big payday and then return to Golden Boy if he loses.

I see Arum getting Cintron as a backup...

[bojangles1987]

I'd like to see Marquez at 140 first, because there's no way this fight is credible at any more weight than that.

[BoxingWasp]

marquez will still whoop pacs azz. team pac wanted to treat floyd as if floyd was a 3itch who deserved no respect so floyd treats them the same. the fact is that arum knew floyd came out of retirement to stomp his cash cow and he wanted to keep that from happening at all costs. either floyd or marquez will whoop pacs azz.
