Juan Manuel Marquez seems not really interested in the Pacquiao 5th fight.

[Beanflicker]

For me 2 was clearer than 1 & 3. I had the 2nd fight 8 rounds to 4 in his favour.

I think I had it 7-5 for Pacquiao but it's been a while since I saw it, and even then it was obvious that you could easily score it 7-5 or even wider the other way for JMM.

When history looks back on it, JMM will always be that thorn in Pac's side. Like Ken Norton was to Ali (I thought he won all 3 fights). JMM was just a guy who stylistically was poison for Pac, always was and always will be.

HBO reported JMM was seeking twenty million for the fifth fight. They said it during one of those twenty four seven shows leading up to the Bradley fight.

[El Kabong]

He's KO'd Pac, he feels like he's been robbed a few times vs Pac already....what more is there to do?

At this point JMM can do whatever he wants to

[Master]

JMM won all the fights against Manny but I really think he knows he will get beat next time. Manny had him stopped and got careless, he knows he will not make the same mistake again.

[FinitoElDinamita]

Marquez is one of the few fighters who puts pride and principles before money.. that's why he chose to face chris john for 30k rather than fighting pac for 750k which would have been his career high payday at the time... he turned down that kind of money even when he wasnt a millionaire ...

He clearly dont care whether or not he gets 50-50 split or whatever..

[zhubin]

Considering the tremendous, hall of fame career he has had...he can tell Pac and company to fuck off and i have zero problems with that. People keep saying Pac was busting him up before JMM finally caught him. Well...he trained for that kind of punch and result. He put on masterclasses of counter punching in the first three fights and got shafted. So he trained to KO Pac...which he did viciously. Perfect way for him to finish their saga. End of story. Move the fuck on.

I agree but I would not go so far as to say Manny had him stopped. Manny has taken JMM to many cross roads points and never closed the deal. Besides when was the last time Pac has KO'ed anyone. Living in the past Mr Master ..

All the blood leaking out of his broken nose would have either made him weak or killed his breathing. The fight wouldve been stopped

Yes maybe stopped than knocked out. Pac really tripped into that punch, one in a million chance.

[TitoFan]

Wants to go out on a high note.

Wants to go out on a high note.

Tho his loss to Bradley lowered that high note a bit. Losing to Pacquiao in the 5th fight will further lower that note so its better to preserve it that way.

[Master]

I would be very interested in Manny v JMM 5, after the last fight who would not be?

That's the answer right there, he's tired of fighting Manny so he is not going to. He said the same thing after the fight. He's gonna do what he wants.
