    Pacquiao should just physically attack Arum like Tyson did King.

    Marquez-Pacquiao should sell more PPV's than Mayweather-Cotto, the only problem is that seeing that Marquez has thrice beaten Pacquiao, Arum already knows Marquez has to get paid alot more than what he was given in fight 3!
    That takes away from Pacquiao's earnings there.

    The potential still exists that if promoted correctly, Marquez-Pacquiao could surpass 1.5 miliion buys and both fighters could take home the most they've ever earned in their lives.

    Of course Pacquiao prefers to fight Bradley, he allready knows he cant beat Marquez. The dillema though is that Arum will not pay Pacquiao what he made in the first Bradley fight because that fight bombed and did'nt sell PPV's that coincided with the ammount Arum guaranteed Pacquiao.
    Thus the purse guarantee drops in value for a rematch with Bradley and Pacquiao is too dumb to figure out why! :lol::nut

    pac needs to focus on getting back on track and on winning form rather than money.

    never said that. but at this point with for me, 3 consecutive unimpressive showings, pac should just keep his focus on boxing. since i think he intends to stick around for a couple more fights. i don't think he's at the top right now. floyd fights seldom but continues to win, ward has been impressive, and the rest like donaire, sergio, and jmm have just been winning.

    Pacquiao can get back to the form he was in a couple of year ago, all he has to do is find fighters to fight that offer a stationary punching bag type target!

    Pac's in a horrible situation....he won't receive the money he is looking for unless he fights Floyd and the way its going that money too is getting slimmer and slimmer.

    You gotta know when to fold....i blame Arum he tried to milk and milk Pac when they could have been cashed out for the sake of Pac because Arum has ate extremely well on Pac's run and while Pac has ate himself...he didnt get nearly what he deserved!

    Pac never was the smartest mind even in the smallest locker room, but it's a little disturbing that he can't put "losing" and "stock down" together.

    wat an idiot... Floyd offered him 40 Mil. and turn it down. Now Arum is not willing to pay him 25 Mil for the marquez fight. This fight will never see 1mil PPV buys.

    This could be Pac's last fight who knows,so does he take the smaller cut to fight Tim,or take the money and fight Juan and possibly lose..Juan or Tim could possibly retire the guy. If he was smart he would make the Floyd fight happen and just retire with a nice payday.
