According to PAcquaio's camp, Marquez had been asking too much before.That's why they decided to negotiate with Diaz. Now that PAcquaio seems to be getting well with Diaz' camp, Marquez is making a noise.

People are now making conclusions that Pacquaio is ducking Marquez. Let's be fair here.Like what I am saying again and again, I want it to be Pacquaio vs. Marquez 2 this coming March but if it will not happen, it can be done within this year. Marquez will not become too much older after , say, 4- 5 months. Meaning, this fight can wait for 8 months. It will be better for both fighters as more people will be clamoring for it.
If Pac gets paid $3m to fight Barrera, and Barrera gets paid the same...Marquez...the guy that drew with Pacquiao and beat Barrera in Barrera's fight before Pac deserves to be paid a minimum of $3m. I'm sorry, but HBO would be willing to put the cash up for a fight most fans demand should happen. They'd make alot of money from PPV buys.
