I'm not sure if they shouldn't just leave at this one, the best fight of the trilogy IMO. Could a fourth fight be better? Who knows.

But if it did happen not only would I watch it I'd probably fly out to California to see it live. I wish I had done that for this one.

Actually I think both did make a little over a million. But it's still nothing close to what they deserve.

Sure why not, isn't boxing all about this kind of stuff, no one fighter has really dominated the other and they have all been great fights. Perhaps make it the end of the year NOV/DEC and give these guys a break. It's kind of like the old days of Robinson V La Motta and Pep V Saddler.
It's unusual to have a 4th fight nowadays but i think warranted if they are up to it!

I'd love to see a fourth!!! It's the best possible match-up at & around the weight IMO!

With talk of Caballero & Deleon possibly fighting the winner would be in a great position to step in against the winner of fight #4

I've justed posted this on another thread. I's say absolutely they should.Marquez's disagree's with the desicion and deservingly so IMO.I'm sure this would still big a huge attraction for the fourth time.

I say no for a fourth bout. It could go on forever and prove nothing more than it has in three fights. At some point it becomes nothing more than senseless beatings.

Besides, I am sure that IV would be a PPV.

I second that.

Mind you, if last night's fight were taken in isolation, not as part of a trilogy, people would be screaming for a rematch. And you could hardly argue against Marquez deserving as much, should he want it. Anyway, I'd say a fourth is pretty inevitable, and hopefully they'll be paid a king's ransom for it.

That said, I've seen enough now, thanks.

Question: when these fights go to a DVD etc., will the fighters get a cut of the profits? Is it a standard part of any contract these days?

No i don't think they should fight again. They had 3 great fights now lets see them fight somebody else.

I'd love to see it but maybe down the road a bit. I think it would make for a bigger fight if these 2 went seperate ways for a few years then met back up.

they could but should they, i don't think so

They should both give themselves a pat on the back for three great fights and just assume that if they fight 10 times each guy will win five for whatever reason. Both of them are too good to spend any more time fighting each other. We could damn near have fights like this every weekend if promoters decided the fans were important enough to them. There are a ton a great match up's out there.
