Comments Thread For: Bradley Wants Marquez Next—Not Pacquiao Remtach

[PAC-BOY]

Actually unless Pacman retires he needs them far more than they need him. Bradley made his waves in the Provednicov fight and Marquez is the man that effectively owns the series defining win, so.........

He fought like a warrior no doubt. But some think he loss that fight as well. And Prov was a relativity unknown with a resume of C&B class fighters on it. He beat the shlt out of Bradley. Manny did as well. He also went on record saying it was ****** to do that and in his next fight he wouldnt do that again. So why invest with a fighter that warns you that he wont fight that fight again! He has no fan base. And Despite mannys KO loss, he brings the loot to ring. Plus it gives Manny time to build up some wins a show what hes made of.

Bradley made his waves in the fight. People are talking. Marq\uez destroyed Pacman. It really can't get any clearer about who needs who. Considering Pacman's choices are between like 4-5 fighters, he does need them more than they need him. They can go make a ppv fight right now without him and just fine.

Not taking anything away from JMMs win. But he KOd him with a good shot. The one getting beat down was JMM. Up until Pac got reckless and got caught.
Neither one of them have made a Pacquiao Paycheck. They need him for a big payday.
They can have their own PPV but it wont bring Pac numbers.

Oh, ok. They need him for that big payday. But he needs them for honor and revenge. What's worth what to who though??

Cotto turned down the Pacman payday cause he refused to bow to Pacman's terms. They can do it just as easily.

True indeed. IMO..*** the money...id say the get back would be more than the purse to me! If Pac fights on and looks great and wins...they will raise their stock. If they lose their stock will go down quickly and take some luster from a rematch. JMM/Pac5 > PAC/Bradley!

Honor and revenge? This isn't important these days in boxing if it were we'd have #1's fighting #2's in every division once a year. When was the last time a #1 actually fought a legitimate #2 in this sport? Boxing now is all about #'s, how many people watch, how many people attend, how many people are interested, how many people comment, how many people read, etc. They both need Pacquaio more than people want to admit..they want to fight each other because the winner walks into a bigger payday their next fight. In my heart I believe Bradley and Joel Diaz despite their words are scared of fighting Pacquaio again. Marquez is on his own quest whatever that may be but he even in a K.O. win didn't get much leverage because once he started talking about "We'll see" he got a response "We don't really need to fight him" and there went whatever leverage he had. I don't know if Pacquaio has anything left in the tank or what he'll look like in his next fight but you can be assured more folks will tune in to watch him fight than they will either of these men. I've been a Cotto fan for ten years and Cotto does not belong at 154, at 147 is where he belongs but he's too lazy to make the weight, if not he'd agree to the fight not that it would turn out any differently. The guy just does not have the hand speed anymore.

So tired of this silly logic from Pacfans...."oh, but Pacquiao was winning when he got ktfo!"
That's like saying "my guy would have won the olympic gold in the 100 if only the other guy didn't run past him!".....lol

if you're arum, u can put it on the pacquiao card as co-main event, too good to be true though

Arum will not put a Marquez/Bradley fight as a co-main event. He is going to use Manny Pacquiao's name to help sell it more. Both guys have W's off Pacquiao and that's enough to sell the fight. Marquez has a crushing KO win over Pacquiao and Bradley has a controversial win over him and a gutsy performance with his fight against Provodnikov. Both guys will meet to settle the score. Crazy reading all of these posts saying that they won't sell without Pacquiao? Ha ha ha! They already moved on from Manny. Manny was better off rematching Bradley and try to get the title back.

[Weebler I]

both fighters want it...the fans want it....maybe uncle Bob wants it as well

Uncle Bob wants Pacquiao v Marquez V. He loves that match-up, presumably because it makes him the most money.
