So, since Juan thinks he's the superior fighter, he's against making the most money he can in another fight, ever? Logic says he knows he landed a "lucky" punch and that he'd get beat up again. He refuses (possibly)beating Timothy and then facing Manny for a good reason, it seems.

You are completely wrong. First, Manny always took the higher cut than JMM, so what makes you think he would get appreciably more money fighting Manny again?

Besides, other than Filipinos, Manny is not that popular anymore to the general public. I did not pay for Manny-JMM 4, and I sure won't pay for part 5.

However, I would pay for JMM and Bradley. It will be an interesting fight and should appeal to true boxing fans. A Brother and a Mexican always makes for a good fight.

As to that nonsense that it was a lucky punch, you are just showing your ignorance as a fight fan. Take a look at the video, JMM landed that same lucky punch at least 10 times in the fight. It was a lead overhand right.

It was the same punch that knocked Manny down. The only difference was the position of JMM's lead foot.

One thing we can be sure of, Pacquiao ain't gonna cry about it for years, begging for a return bout, wearing T-shirts proclaiming "I beat Marquez three times" etc etc. He took the defeat like a man, while Marquez is claiming the victory in the most arrogant and entitled fashion possible. Whatever. Manny is going to make double the money Marquez makes in his next fight.

Marquez never wanted a Pacquiao rematch to redeem himself. He just wanted to show the world that he really beat him and he kept getting robbed. Maybe it's not all about the money with some people.

A perfect lucky punch that turned white to black...

It wasn't a lucky punch and Marquez tested clean.

It was the PERFECT PUNCH.

Give Marquez his due, he knocked Pacquiao out - great timing and great preparation.

Rios/Alvarado is actually good because it's a gauge to see where Pacquiao is at after that brutal KO.

It was a LUCKY, perfect & brutal punch w/ matching foot stepping...That 4th match has a decisive outcome for both fighters, why? It made decisive for Marquez, cause he won of course on record because of that Perfect LUCKY Punch on that dying seconds of 6th rd, even how many times u watch it....But for Pacquiao's part, he showed & proved it to the world that he's clearly superior & dominated Marquez on this 4th match before he was got knockout (less that moments for 1 knockdown/3rd rd & the perfect lucky punch knockout/6th rd) w/ foot stepping...

Good analogy. No reason to pass up that kind of money unless your ego is so big you just wanna squander the last fight just to savor it til you croak.

When did JMM ever get beat up?

He was getting beat up badly right before the KO.

[PunchyPotorff]

Nah man he always claimed he won their previous fights as far as the lucky punch...man whatever should we assume the punches that knocked Juan down were lucky come on man the difference here is Marquez can take Manny's best shots and continue on as painful as it is for you to understand your only way to stomach the defeat is to say that it was lucky manny nor roach can stop the right hand I tell you what PAC is lucky he wasn't fighting mayweather Floyd is the best counterpuncher in the game.

JMM won fair n square, but hey man... newsflash.. it WAS a lucky punch. Most club fighting hacks could've avoided that punch. Pacman got kokky and he paid the price... but JMM would never land a shot like that again on Pac. And he knows that. Hence the term 'lucky punch'. But, like Arum said, hate it or not, JMM is just posturing for a bigger paycheck when fight #5 happens. I think it will, after they agree to pay JMM ****** money that is.

Right before he killed Pacquiao.
That's a clear decisive Victory.

^^^ THIS indeed ^^^

marquez was on drugs. He'd get found out before the 5th fight and lose all the credit he gained for his win.
He's a cheater. And a coward.

you are on the wrong page you should be on "pinoyka.com" that is the official manny pacquiao fan club this one is for boxing fans

For those mad about Marquez-Pac 5 (or maybe even Marquez-Mayweather 2) not happening, relax. After Bradley (regardless of a win or loss) who else is out there that would get him a big payday (assuming he doesn't retire afterwards)? So sit back and enjoy this great matchup. Looking forward to Marquez-Bradley.
