Comments Thread For: Marquez vs Gesta is Not Likely To Happen, Says Arum

[puga]

good, coz gesta aint ready and i dont know if he'll ever be without fighting a guy thats good...

I don´t think Márquez will fight Morales, he has been asked before several times and he just hates the idea.

He hates Morales becasue in his opinion Morales never gave him the opportunity when Morales was on top and a huge draw. I dont blame JMM but he should get over it and beat the ****t out of Morales and retire him, while making a ****t load of money..

Gesta is still a prospect and shouldn't be fighting for a title yet.

well marquez has turned down Rios, Judah & Morales any of those fights are decent for a PPV if they have a good undercard. Gesta vs JMM is just silly for a PPV.

Judah priced himself out of the fight with Marquez the falls on Judah not Marquez.

Marquez vs Gesta will not sell out Cowboys Stadium, Morales vs JMM makes the most sense if he wants a big payday, there is no guarantee he gets Manny (he waited years the last times). He should just fight Morales and settle his beef in the ring.

Nobody Needs To Watch Gesta; Have Gesta Fight Maidana!

I have NO interest seeing Gesta fight Marquez. That's Marquez' excuse for not having a war before on last shot at Pacquiao. Lame. Weak. Go down as a warrior; fight Morales in Texas Stadium. This "wanting a lefty to prepare for Pacquiao", is all BS. 1) you fought Manny 3 times; you don't know how to fight a lefty yet... is that why you haven't beaten him yet? 2) it's not a done deal you even get a 4th shot at Manny. Don't remember too many guys that kept needing fight after fight after fight to get your ONE win. 3) you fight Morales, and beat that legend you've never fought, while you've fought Pacquiao and Barrera multiple times. Then see if you get a shot at Manny a 4th embarrassing time. Let A young Maidana fight Gesta. I'm starting to believe Marquez is afraid Morales may find one more great fight in himself and beat Marquez.

Why would a sparring session be on PPV and at Cowboys Stadium? He's going to have 3 months to spar with southpaws to prepare for Manny.

Duplicate .....

Does Arum work for Marquez, or does the fighter work for Arum?

If JMM wants Gesta then that's the way it should be. Assuming of course that he would be reasonable and take a smaller purse to get the opponent he wants.

Gesta's not ready. There's no way he should be going from no names to Marquez. Handler's just being greedy with that move. Gesta is well advised to dump him.
