      130 pounds. He was calling out Prince Naseem to go up in weight to fight him.

          Was it as little as that? The offer was made in May I think and neither of them fought again until August. I know they weren't happy with the terms whatever they were.

          Still though, you're essentially unknown and you've been chasing a superstar like Naz for two years and more. If you finally get offered that fight with a career high payday into the bargain, you have to take it.

          Not saying the terms were fair, but that was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

            Didn't he lose to Norwood?

            Marquez wasn't the star then he is now. People wanted to see Morales, Barrera & Naz, not Marquez.
