Juan Manuel Marquez - who should he face if he doesn't win the Pacquiao sweepstakes?

[Rantcatrat]

my point is this, pacquiao is in his absolute prime right now. he can compete more effectively i believe, with fighters like berto and bradley because they are also in their prime. marquez, is too old for berto and mosley. however, as he's already proven, can give pacquiao an interesting fight like his first two. berto and bradley are just too young and in their prime for marquez. whereas pacquiao, while still in his prime, matches up well with marquez because marquez knows how to fight him. he's proven that but instead, pacquiao chooses an old mosley who definitely cannot be competitive anymore at the championship level.

now tell me, explain to me if pacquiao is not cherry picking his opponents, why wasn't berto nor bradley or anybody as fast as pacquiao, chosen as his opponent? and please don't tell me that bullshit that they wouldn't sell enough ppv's! do you actually think the knowledgeable boxing public is going to shell out $54.95 to see a one sided beat down? pacquiao is a multi-millionaire many times over, surely he can go after a top fighter so that he can shut up his most ardent critics.

and another thing, sergio martinez already said he would come down to 154 to challenge pacquiao for his jr. middleweight title but bob arum balked as usual. why? and please don't tell me pacquiao is too small for martinez. pacquiao was willing to beat up a slow, margarito for the jr. middleweight title at a catchweight so why can't he defend it with martinez as his opponent? i'll tell you why, it's because martinez would kill pacquiao and pacman knows it. he only wants fights where he has a big speed advantage. forget about the height and weight, speed kills and if your opponent happens to fight you at a catchweight and he's slow and past his prime, what a better opponent for pacquiao!!!

You are turning this into a Pacquiao thread! I wanted to talk Marquez.

because everything coming out of the pactardos mouths is pacquiao.

What do you think is the biggest money fight for Marquez outside of Pacquiao?

[milmascaras1]

damn, that's a great question. there really aren't very many marketable fighters who would give marquez a really big payday. the closest opponent i would say is amir khan but it would never happen cause of the golden boy promotions/top rank dispute.

i really can't name a big money fight for him right now!

both Marquez and Khan are GBP fighters so nothing to do with top rank

[:::PSL:::]

That's why JMM-Khan will more likely to happen than Pac-JMM.
