Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao Explain Selection of Marquez Over Bradley

[I Love Jesus!]

Cant agree with you more..

Lets see, which fight outta the three options well no 2 options produces more revenue.. Obviously Marquez considering the Mexican fan base..

Pac could of sat it out and waited til next year to seal a fight with Floyd but they wanted to try to make squeeze out another pointless fight and money from the fans..

either that or he just wants to fight like fighters are supposed to. Not once every leap year like some guys

[Bullrider]

oh well what are they supposed to do when Mayfeathers not interested in getting in the ring. He must be on another sabbatical probably at a bath house somewhere out of the country. Doing some salami surfing.

Even God can't make Floyd fight Paqciao at this point. His best friend Fifty is supposed to be the last great hope. It even damaged their friendship.

bob announces a while ago that they wouldn't be seeking a floyd fight and you blame him for this debacle.

wouldn't it be nice if all of us could blame our cowardly decisions on floyd.

what you mean wouldn't it homie? that IS whats happening...

but I guess when "fans" only know 2 fighters in boxing, they gotta pick one...

[ddangerous]

Excuses only satisfy those that make them !

All fighters have personal problems , some get to stretched out and no doubt can effect their performance but in the END you are still responsible for the outcome and I think Pac is taking charge of the responsibility on that end.

I think JMM has the responsibility to GO FOR THE KO just as PAC does, A KO is needed to settle the dispute.

This final fight, I pray its the final fight that last about 9 rounds will hopefully provide a beat down and a brutal KO

by PAC of course, but all the love to JMM and family,,,,nearly anybody else and I would be for JMM, love'em both

Well put. I am not excited about this fourth meeting at all, but I do agree with this.

There is no justification for a 4th JMM fight when manny is 2-0-1 vs him. The two wins were in succession and the last win was by more points than the previous one.

I thought manny beat tim by a wide margin. So i can understand why there is no rematch.

Manny tried to strong arm Cotto at 150 and he had Bob announce he wouldn't even entertain a floyd fight until next year.

But hey, why pass on Cotto at 154 or $0 mil no ppv when you can take a chance at going 3-0-1 against JMM.

well I scored the third fight a draw...many boxing/sports journalists were split on who won. it was a close/controversial decision no doubt. manny did obviously beat tim, but he was robbed..almost all boxing/sports journalists saw it this way as well. i doubt manny can make 150+ comfortably for cotto...and I don't think floyd will have a fight for the end of this year. also considering top rank won't do business with gbp, pac doesn't have alot of options. pac went with the riskiest fight other than floyd...

..

Wait, how was Cotto weight drained if his previous fight before that was 1 lb less?

He just happened to be 146 for clottey , theres a difference when your mindset is to make 145 instead of 147 .. Cmon Cotto really had to cut back eating alot to make that weight while PAC is just eating and eating and eating .. Obviously Manny is Gonna have more energy .. Smh c'mon don't try to justify his CW crap when he is the only welter who he made fight at a CW

[flint]

What he should be explaining is why he chose marquez over mayweather.. he didnt even consider a fight with floyd hes scared

i don't believe ducquiao is scared. its just he knows that he can't beat mayweather.anybody thats one dimensional gets in the ring with mayweather has no chance of winning.

[Grimgash]

I'd have like to see cotto at 154... smh. Oh manny can't make it? Come in at 150 under the limit, you fought for a 154 belt before don't tell me you can't fight at 154 and try to claim that vacant belt as legit. Floyd did it at 154 and guess what he didn't worry about making the limit, he just wanted a good fight.

[Light_Speed]

Marquez is the best choice among these three options but these options are shitty to begin with.

[coolka]

whatever you guys say, come Dec 8 all of you will watch the fight. Mark my word. YOU WILL WATCH THE FIGHT NO MATTER WHAT. LMAO
