Comments Thread For: HBO Sports Boss Would Love Pacquiao-Marquez 5

[JFalu]

Pac/Marquez 5??? What if Marquez wins again??? Are we going to see a 6th fight to settle the 2-2 score???

Yea seriously. As Arum recently said, "time to move on"

[Evol]

Do u guys really think #5 will make a lot more money?? I think both sides of the fans is tired already of this match up. Honest question to the Marquez fans, do u guys want to see a 5th fight between these 2 and if this match up gets made will u support it by buying it?

I'm glad the head of HBO Sports would like it. I can assure you that the fans won't.

Wtf? Most would eat it up. Fans generally like rematches of great fights, stunning Fotys especially

[sugarsmosley]

Did i say i didnt give him credit? No i didnt say that so stop crying. Im nt a pac fan and thats cool. I think he cheated regardless of what anyone says so thats why im not a fan. A simple yes and i would have been om board but nope.

Stop assuming to know what i think but then again your a pac fan and assumptions are what make you guys thrive.

And i did think your P4P an the ESPN staple was a good fght so dont know where that came from but once again pac fan assuming

What the hell are you talking about, cheating, ESPN, crying? This is borderline unreadable.

It's pretty clear you are biased.... you've toned it down a bit but your agenda is still clear. You take bradley off your top 5 and replace him with marquez (a guy bradley beat) so that incase pac beat bradley you could say you weren't impressed. Literally, i dont think you've said 1 good thing about any fighter not on goldenboy.

You tell me to stop making assumptions because I'm a "pac fan" and don't know you... yet you contradict yourself there.. you dont know me either and are making an assumption yourself grouping me with what you think as "pac fans" when I give floyd a lot of credit and rate him higher then pacquiao... but yea.. call a spade a spade man...

If Pacquiao vs Mayweather can't be made then the best alternative is Pacquiao/Marquez.
It would easily sell 1 million PPV's.

Honestly.....Marquez probably should have retired after Pac-JMM 4. I give bradley big props for beating him last year, but Marquez looked older then ever in that fight.

[MaskedMurderer]

The only way to better boxing is to freeze out Top Rank and HBO, Marquez should decline the fight.

The fight...

.....no one cares about. Clearly JMM is over. He would get slaughtered. He looked terrible against Timmy who got obliterated by Pac. Time for Pac to clean house at 140. No competition there for him at all. Garcia wold fall in five. He's a joke.

Yeah it would definitely sell.

I can understand Marquez fans not wanting it, and I can see why Pacquiao fans do. It's kind of ironic though, given that no one makes Pacquiao look as bad as Marquez does, and no one makes Marquez look as good as Pacquiao does. Manny would be surer of victory, and of looking good in the process, against pretty much anyone else Top Rank could match him with.

Obviously the pressure to make this fight comes from the fact that there aren't many other options at all when it comes down to it. The Bradley-Provodnikov rematch looks inevitable, as does the Alvarado-Rios rubber match. Manny and JMM are the odd men out. So unless they want to fight Abregu there's not much else on the table.

[R_Walken]

Of course they would. If no Marquez or Mayweather PAC & TR options are real slim and would likely do PAC / Rios #s


Personally think 4 is enough, I'd watch a 5th but really don't see a point Marquez ended it perfectly for someone whos been robbed at least twice.
