Comments Thread For: Marquez Admits Fear of Robbery in Fifth Pacquiao Bout

[MisanthropicNY]

Let's translate Marquez: In the fifth fight, I'd have to subject myself to VADA testing, so I will not be able to knock out Pacquiao... so I'll lose another decision to Pacquiao like I've lost 3 prior decisions because I wanted to sit back and get outworked and been knocked down..

That's why I can't fully respect Marquez. Pac has given him multiple rematches, Marquez has probably made 80-90% of the money he's made in his career fighting Pac and he can't give the man one rematch? Marquez has essentially made a career out of stalking Pac so IMO it's a shame he can't give him the one fight.

One thing with Pacquaio, he never ducked nobody and never complained after losses (with the exception of maybe this last fight vs. Mayweather LOL). He gave Marquez all those rematches and I doubt he'd have a problem even giving Bradley a rematch, assuming the money was right... and the Bradley robbery was worse than any robbery Marquez may have suffered vs. Pac.

Or you can look at it another way. Pacquiao was given multiple opportunities to prove his superiority over JMM. Never happened and they BOTH (especially) Pacquiao made buckets of money over four fights. I don't think JMM is holding anything against Pac personally because its a bit difficult to dislike a guy like Pacquiao, but JMM absolutely has good reasons to believe the crooks that run boxing will screw him again in a 5th fight.

Well-founded concerns. JMM can never win a decision against Pacquiao. He knows it and the entire boxing world should know it by now.

After they robbed him in 3rd fight i can understand this.

[deathofaclown]

The rivalry is over as far as i'm concerned. JMM won the last 2 fights at least, he got robbed and then settled it by putting Pacquiao to sleep.

What more needs to be said?

Pacquiao will go down in history as an ATG and had an overall better career than JMM, but Marquez just has his number head to head. That's just the way it goes sometimes.

Marquez basically what is saying is that in the fourth fight he had luck with that lucky punch and his greatest fear is not able to land this punch again, he is admitting he can't beat Pacquiao, what a loser he needs to retire and make commentary on espn deportes

[gmc_rfc_06]

Understandable.

To me Marquez can't beat Pac via decision any clearer than he did in the 3rd fight. I had that fight 117-111 Marquez and they didn't give him the decision so why bother doing that again?

[Lester Tutor]

A 5th fight?! Lol. Press stunts. Marquez ain't gonna give the easy way out for Pac in returning with fake shoulder injuries and most of the money he lost from tax debt payments or the many lawsuits against him. Im surprised Koncz is even around, but money talks.

Lol Jmm did not get robbed three times. Only part 3 I could see him winning. Part 1 and 2, he lost. Yo bro, how u feel about the Chargers leaving San Diego?

I want them to Leave SD. I live in the Bay Area so I could care less where they play. I am Powder Blue and Yellow till the day I die. SD lost the right to that team. They got outnumbered by opposing fans. LA is a good opportunity to grow the fanbase.
