I get what you saying ...boxing use to be a sport of pride ....now it just becoming an occupation .....fighters fighting for the fans is the last thing on some of these minds it all about careful decision making ......fighters like Floyd Adonis could care less what the people want ....that why guys like thurman and ggg get so much "hype" because at the end of the day they believe in there power and skill and want to see if they could knock others out
No it wasn't, it was a sport for poor people like blacks, Italians, Irish, etc who had nothing going for them could make money. Now it's more worldwide than ever, but still generally more poor people and people with unprivileged backgrounds participate in the sport to be in a better financial situation.

Yes we know money was and always be involved in boxing ...but once these guys make millions and a big name for the selfs ...money is not only thing they fight for
They all fight for money and that's why boxing is often called prize fighting. If there was little or no money in boxing the level of skill and talent would go way down hill fast. Almost no fighter would go through the hard training and the high risk of injury and brain damage if there was no monetary reward.
No he was highest paying option. Remember he wanted to rematch cotto...who he crushed at a weihht 4 lbs lower than his last fight before setting on jmm 4? Its about monwy....who can pac fight for big money? Jmm....and?

i just got back
okay thats ur opinion
but as i said marquez is a risk with money why choose him when he can fight someone easier without risking his pvp status drop
u lose ur stocks drops, why pick marquez
manny can actually fight two easy fights and that would equal to how much he is going to get from a marquez fight
now the better example is
why take bradley when he has nothing but risk for u?
facing bradley means risking ur stocks but high reward for legacy
