Comments Thread For: Arum Calls For a Fourth Pacquiao-Marquez Showdown

[BoZz]

Maybe Marquez let off the gas in the 11th and 12th because the extra weight began to show and tired him out? I've never seen him do this before. I believe he should have pressed the action more and maybe the outcome would have been different. There are three possible ways that I scored the fight and I either have Marquez winning by a point or two, or a draw. I would also like to add that in the prefight commentary on HBO's 24/7 Overtime, that I heard Freddie Roach say that he needs to feed Manny like 5 times a day in order to keep his weight up otherwise he will drop to 138 easy. If that's the case, then it's pitiful that even with all of the physical advantages Manny possesses over Marquez, and with the added catch weight on top, that Marquez was able to embarrass him in spots. Further along, the whole HBO crew was ****riding Pacquiao all night. They were giving him credit by saying he landed a right hook or something when it was Marquez who was punching him in the face, or screaming when Pacquiao threw a "tremendous" left hand that hit AIR, or praising his footwork for shuffling. Lastly I don't know wtf was up with the compubox stats because there were rounds where I could have sworn Marquez clearly outworked Pacquiao only to see that Pacquiao outlanded him like 15 to 10. I may sound biased right now, but that's just how I get when I hear one sided commentary trying to persuade me into seeing something that my eyes are not. I need to watch the British Primetime version of the fight. I hear they scored it for Marquez.

That's correct I noticed that too...all the other fights pac had at WW..the weight drained opposition started to tire in the 4th or 5th round..that's why pac looked so "good" ..it wasn't him good it was his opposition getting weak and the weight draining getting to them...if he fights someone who's fit and not drained he would lose every time he fights..

arum talking about another top rank vs top rank fight...it's either gonna be bradley or a forth fight with jmm...*******s should realize by now that they're ducking mayweather

[Larrysbird]

I think Pac - May happens next. 4th match later. Marquez can wait. Marquez was playing good though his counter punching wasn't good enough. Not enough fireworks and a bit dull. Pac just can't take off the way he used to fight bigger guys. Hopefully team Floyd and team Pac would negotiate asap.

BULL****.

JMM won, end of. **** all these fights until Pacquiao actually gets a convincing win.

Pacquiao was ****ing embarassed at the final bell.

ARUM make the fourth PAC vs JMM fight in Mexico!!! If PAC is so confident he can beat JMM without the judges then take it to MExico... I had JMM winning last nights fight because he landed the HARDER punches, he rocked PAC 3-4 times.. PAC never landed flush!! JMM just has PAC's number!!!!!!!!!!!!

Title should read: Arum calls for a Fourth Robbery of Marquez!

[kokingbill]

Arum is just saying this to cover his butt... He knows mayweather will fight now and school pacquiao... He's willing to cash out pacquiao in a fight against mayweather and then do in immediate rematch with mayweather... Then maybe take PAC on a retirement victory lap against Tim Bradley, maybe marquez, Cotto again, or whoever Is still around at that point almost 2 years from now.

[Ruffus74]

The in between lines of this statement from Arum say 2 things:
1. Marquez Won this fight.
2. No way in hell, I'll let Manny fight Mayweather

[Hayehammer]

**** off arum! who would be that ****** to pay for a fourth fight!?
Marquez won that fight pretty easy! Hes better fighter than pacman he proved it 3 times already!

[Simply Zyzz]

arum knows everyone wants the mayweather fight so why is this old senile *** trying to sway the public into another one of his in-house fights...
