Comments Thread For: Nacho: Marquez Should Face Pacquiao, Not Bradley or Rios

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Nacho Beristain, the longtime trainer of Juan Manuel Marquez, has advised his fighter to face Manny Pacquiao for a fifth time. Marquez, who turns 40 later this year, will decide the future of his career in the next few weeks. In a recent interview that ran on BoxingScene.com, Marquez expressed his interest in facing WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley or junior welterweight brawler Brandon Rios. But, Marquez says he is not interested in facing Pacquiao again.

Bradley would be a hard fight for Marquez because of his fighting style. If Marquez fights Bradley he should retire after.

Marquez will lose to both

Marquez will lose to Bradley and Brandon Rios, and make less money,
whereas if he just fights Pacquiao he will earn more money.

Marquez isn't going to get 50/50 as much as he or anybody else feels like he deserves it.
If he fights Rios/Alvarado/Bradley
He can demand a higher purse.... although he might get opposition from Bradley.
But he could probably pick the location as well

No point in fighting Rios or Bradley for peanuts compare to what he would make against Pac, even 30% of a Pac payday is better than 90% of a Rios or Bradley payday.

lol after manny said "if marquez doesnt want to fight me, i dont want to fight him either" they come scrambling back, you dont mess with the DRAW, be thankful you still have that option to fight manny

It's simple, if Marquez is looking to get paid, he's fighting Pacquiao. If he wants to add to his legacy, he fights Bradley. Rios just lost to Alvarado so forget him.

He does if he wants to get paid... Pac and Mayweather the only people who can dole out that kind of paycheck... unless he wants to fight Canelo in mexico
