    Greater fighters than Ruslan don't want to fight Pacquiao. His statement is not that bad.

      Marquez is a pure boxer, technical minded. And he's smart enough to not engage with a guy who can brawl.

      Pacquaio though isn't a pure boxer and doesn't mind to engage/brawl, even if it's reckless. Ruslan vs. Pacquaio would seem better than a Marquez fight.

      I think a rematch would Bradley would be way different. Bradley would box 100% of the way.
      I don't think marquez legs would keep him away from ruslan, i think it would be like the diaz fights, he would have to fight him off. I think pac vs rusland would look like pac vs rios, onesided.

      Yeah bradley vs ruslan II might look more like bradley vs marquez but ruslan deserves a second chance after such a close first fight.

        Good points about Marquez.

        I don't think Pac vs. Rusland would be so one-sided though. I actually favor Rusland in that fight. I don't think he'd stink it up like Rios did. But who knows. Rusland does deserve a rematch with Bradley though. Definitely.

              Broner says he don't want to fight Floyd - he must be a coward and a duck too.

                  Why?
                  Same reason Hairbrush wouldn't fight "big bro".

                      I also had no problem with broner or garcia not wanting to fight floyd. They know they wont win so there is no point. If a guy is already mentally beat, believing he can't win a fight then it's to no use to call for it.

                      People could call it cowardly but i don't see it as such, if a guy thinks he has a chance but won't take it that is cowardly but if a guy thinks he has no chance then it's just logical to not wan't the fight.
                      Sounds like a double standard to me. In reality, no world class boxer should admit he'd lose to another fighter anyway, especially if they're both around the same weight class. I think the main reason Provodnikov won't fight Pacquaio is because of the fact that they both have the same trainer and are stablemates.
