[Blubba]

and that is why bradley aint signed **** with khan. bradley aint ducking . he's just hoping that he will get the best payday if he can get with pac.

but with this marquez **** going on , it looks like bradley aint got no choice unless it falls through with arum.

[BoZz]

See every time pacs finished with a fight arum is signing another one the next day

LAS VEGAS -- Top Rank Promotions' CEO Bob Arum called eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao "the greatest fighter I've ever seen," adding, "Nobody can compete with him. Nobody," this, after watching the Filipino super star pitch Saturday night's virtual shutout, unanimous decision over Shane Mosley in defense of his WBO welterweight belt at the MGM Grand Hotel.

inb4 *******s butthurt JMM was not satisfied with the contract

More likely Marquez felt it was an offer Golden Boy would probably match and he'd be forced to fight Canelo Alvarez, a much bigger fighter than him. The gaurantee has probably been increased to 6 million and maybe a catchweight was added so if Golden Boy match the offer Alvarez would have to get down to 145-144, which is impossible

Forget Marquez, Martinez at 154lbs.

[Kobayashi]

If Marquez is smart, he will sign. 5 million plus bonus, it is his last chance to get that much. Again others fighters, he will only get 1+ millions.

The Racket Squad: On Any Given Night

To be the best, you need to be the best on any particular night.
You can have the greatest training camp in history, but if the stars do not align on the evening of the contest, all hell could be coming to breakfast.

Any man who truly desires to test another always has a shot.

Pac was uncomfortable last night and Mosely still ran all the way home.
But that was an exhibition from the moment it was announced.

Marquez tries.
He could even win if the weight were less demanding.
But at the end of the day, he too will take the money and run.

Martinez i the next logical opponent for Manroid, last nights fight was pure garbage as predicted, this run of fighting washed up no hopers is ridiculous lready and not worth the price tag.

Very few guys with any Kopf would accept a first offer. The natural thing to do is to try to have it raised a bit. And in this case Arum wouldn't mind so much, even though he pays very well, since it would more certainly force Golden Balls out of the running.
