Comments Thread For: Marquez Discusses Rejection of a Fifth Pacquiao Fight

[HeroBando]

Why face a guy he beat 4 times? I'm glad Marquez is fighting Bradley...dangerous fight at this stage in his career but the man is a warrior!

Why do they call it prizefighting?

[Marvellous1]

Marquez is at the point where he can do as he pleases. He doesn't have to justify it to anyone. He doesn't feel he needs bumper pay purses (even if it's millions less than the guy he already knocked out). He wants what he feels he was robbed of, that fifth title.

Fighting Pacquiao again, after feeling he's outboxed him and definitely knocked him out, just doesn't have the same appeal. I have no problem with that.

Who dictates what the prize is?

Who cares. even with Pac's first offer he'd stand to make like 40% of his career total

Manny had 4 chances to knock this man out but he could not do it..he dropped him 5 times and each time he got right back up like a warrior...Then he showed Manny how you put someone to sleep...He won more rounds then Manny in those 4 fights and then he rocked him to sleep..IT IS OVER

Yea that's fine, however he also said he might consider Alvarado next, but Pac never again, for the sake of memories, despite a 4x larger purse

If he wins this next fight, he's got another belt at 147, i don't see him ever dropping to 140. Mike would probably come up.

Hey I agree his resume could use much beefing up, not that great beyond Pac. Just picked a funny time to do it, with a winning lottery ticket in hand. And Alvarado won't do much for it, certainly less than retiring Pac for real in a hugely anticipated 5th fight.

stop crying and begging dude. its over. Manny got KTFO. We're tired of them fighting. JMM either will win and get screwed or win by KO. enough is enough.

Why should I care that a professional Flo mo is tired of it? I can tell you for sure it would do great on PPV, and chances are it will be better than Floyd's best fight in ages. People love great fights and these guys provide, simple

herobando never hand an arugment to begin with, only weak excuses. "why do they call it prizefighting"...is that supposed to be some sort of rebuttle? You don't even have half an arugment. No rational objective fan wants to see another fight between the two, everyone agrees that it was a great ending to a great four episode war.

It didn't have the ending you hoped for? Not everyone elses problem. Somtimes things don't go your way in life. Welcome to adulthood. Why this is such a hard concept to grasp is beyond me.

tell yourself whatever you need to. How about having manny fight someone new that he hasn't beat so we get a fresh fight?

Ahh go to ****in China and rot on zou's undercard beating up b level JWW's.

Why do you care about the money if Marquez doesn't? Are you getting a cut?

He wants that fifth title and a new challenge. He's more than earnt the right to make that choice. If Pacquiao wants that fight so bad, make him an offer he can't refuse or move on. Either way, I have no problem with whatever Marquez decides to do at this stage. I don't understand why anyone would.
