Thread: Juan Manuel Markez : Pacquiao Should Fight Maywether Not Me

four division world champion Juan Manuel Marquez is
looking to fight two more times in 2014, before announcing his retirement from the sport - but says no amount of money can get him in the ring for a fifth time with Pacquiao.

Manny Pacquiao is hunting for a fifth fight after Marquez knocked him out cold in the sixth round of their fourth meeting last December in Las Vegas.

Marquez wants Manny Pacquiao to face Mayweather Jr. in order to satisfy the curiosity of the people who want to see them fight.


“The fifth fight is not going to happen. It’s not even worth it, because the people are very happy with that knockout,” Juan Manuel Marquez said. “I hope they make the fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather Jr. to erase any doubts [on who would win]. I think it’s going to be great fight and the people will be very pleased because they won’t be in suspense on what would have happened if these two fighters had faced each other.”

I don't blame JMM. He got robbed 2 out of 3 times, arguably all 3 times, and now he finally got a decisive win.

Up your @$$, he didn't get robbed 3 times...

Exactly. JMM fought til he won. Period. Manny still owns him.

I can't blame Marquez for not wanting a 5th fight cuz I know dam sure that I'd do the same.

It took him years, 4 fights to finally score the picture perfect knockout and even then, he took a beating prior to landing that punch. Deep inside, he knows he was fortunate and the same would not happen in a 5th bout so he'd rather live and die with that good memory intact. That shit is priceless and no amount of money will make him risk that.

Really. I like Marquez and there Is no doubt he Is a future HOF fighter, but come on. To call fans bitter and tell them they need to mature when Marquez whined and cried for rematches until he finally got his desired result on his 4th attempt. Now Pacquiao would like an attempt to avenge the ko loss and Marquez basically tells him to go **ck himself. I would think that Marquez would be the one that would need to mature, If that Is possible.

Marquez is right. There's no need for a 5th fight. He's already 4-0 against him

He got robbed twice.

If you or anyone else can honestly say you think Pac won the 1st and 3rd fight, you're insane.

Manny owns Marquez? LOL. I wonder how many millions JMM cost Pac by putting him to sleep.

JMM is also a true fan of the sport like us who really wanted the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight to finally become a reality.

To have 4 fights proved they were close and thrilling fights but we all know what happened on the last one...

To be objective, yep Marquez got robbed 2x..

A draw in the first bout was acceptable because the judge did make an error scoring first round.. Draw was more than fair.

JMM is in it for the money same as every other boxer. No boxer owes money to another boxer. The promotional company is responsible for the purse. If they have some sort of endorsement deal it's a separate issue

I stand up for Pac in the 2nd fight, because it was a razor close fight and no guy clearly won. Personally I thought Pac won by one round.

But in the 1st and 3rd fight, I think Marquez really schooled him.

HBO reported JMM was seeking twenty million for another fight.
