Comments Thread For: Marquez on Why He Didn't Choose Provodnikov Bout

[TLC8]

Lol most of these Pac haters only follow Mayweather's career and don't follow boxing in general lol. Why did Pacquiao fight Hatton at 140? Is that a serious comment? You do realize Hatton was undefeated at 140 and dominated the 140 division for years don't you? lol

Pacquiao fought Hatton because it would be a common opponent he and Floyd both had and Pacquiao was attempting to get a Mayweather fight, so he was lining up as many common fights as he could.... Oscar, Mosley, Hatton. Hatton went 11 rounds with Floyd and got train wrecked in two by Manny. Hence that fight solidified Floyd never climbing in the ring with Manny.

First of all, Boxingscene.com.... Don't be afraid to say the wAy it really happened. Don't just say Alvarado was defeated by Provo... Say "Alvarado was knocked out in 8!" There's a difference. And it supports more of why Marquez wants nothing to do with Provo. Marquez reasoning is so weak, he needs to get back on the PED's for a stronger excuse!

Marquez saying "I already had that title, and no reason to fight for it again". Really? So you have a problem winning a title twice as opposed to once? Who has THAT problem?!!? Lame. You're not fighting Alvarado for a title, you're just fighting Alvarado. Just fight Provo then; make it a non title fight idiot if you don't want that title again. You're more credible fighting Provo who dismantled Alvarado, then fighting Alvarado himself. If that 5th title at Welterweight is so important, then you could have fought Shawn Porter, and don't believe you wanted that dog fight either.

JMM has become a real weasel now that he's being tested for PED's every fight after the fluke Pacquiao fight.

Or he could do what mayweather did in his fight with mosely,and not pay the sanctioning fees!simple right,provo got 40 year old cryquez shook! I dont know why i quoted snake...

Wasn't he only the interim champ at 140? I could be wrong but last time I checked when he stopped Katsidis it wasn't for the full championship.

I might be wrong too but marquez fought katsidis at 135 for a full fledge title,then marquez moved up to 140 and fought fedchenko for an interim belt...

[SUBZER0ED]

Yes but at this point after all the wars he's been in, he's a shell of his former self. Against a smart guy like Marquez, I could see it ending the way the Juan Diaz fight ended.

Marquez has been in his share of wars too. Alvarado is 7 years younger than him. He is also 2" taller and has a 2.5" reach advantage. This may not go the way Juan hopes.

Are all of these Pacman fans still hurting from the devastating ko Marquez gave Paquiao, Do you rell think that it's possible to go from 108 lbs all the way to 154 and became sucessful on your own body? without the help of maybe roids???Please guys have a bit more knowledge, If Pacquiao used them so did Marquez so there we are even, the difference is that Marquez has more hart, Manny couldn't keep him down!!! Why do you all think Manny gave him rematches? He knows deep down Marquez won!

Marquez has nothing to porve, he wants his 5th world title and he should get it, Now for those who debate the title situation please tell me what title was Manny and hatton fighting for?????? Learn my dear un-knowlegable fans

its a right choice for marquez for not choosing provo...he can have a very healthy life after boxing....

[twrx]

why > JMM like all others at 140 know's he would lose by KO to ruslan provodnikov

Seriously tell me the last time Marquez was stopped??? Hell prime Manny pac who schooled ruslan couldn't finish jmm so gtfo.

Probably so. It also probably wouldn't matter if he lost to Alvarado or Provo at 140. But who's to say that Provo wouldn't fight Marquez above 140. Just because he has a belt at 140 doesn't mean he can't fight at 147. Especially if he wins and gets e to fight the Bradley/Pac winner (that would be 2 bigger paydays than anything else he'll get at 140)

ruslan himself said he wants to defend at 140 . how bout ruslan straight ducking abhuge pay day vs rios?

[JJRod]

Lol at your comment that pacs team didnt want it?, isnt it the cut off date that they were having trouble? Get your facts straight!

Yes and as far as I know OST is completely random. No cut off dates.
The mere fact cut off dates were being asked for tells you they didn't want OST testing.

Don't try to revise history in order to make it fit your current agenda.

Juan Manuel Marquez will return to the ring in 2014 against former WBO Junior Welterweight champion Mike Alvarado as they will serve as the inaugural boxing fight to take place at the newly renovated Forum in Inglewood, CA. It’s the same building where Marquez started his career as he fought a total of 12 times during 1995 through 1999.

Much like Marquez, Alvarado is coming off a loss as he was defeated by Ruslan Provodnikov last October in his hometown of Denver, CO. Many fans have voiced that they would’ve wanted Marquez to face Provodnikov instead of Alvarado given the fact that Provodnikov was the victor and holds a world title.

JMM is right, he has a point, and so does Nacho. As a WARquez fan, he could retire tomorrow and I would be satisfied as a fan, he has nothing left to prove to me, and should hang up the gloves before he starts eating unnecessary losses.
