Damn....Marquez is being very clear and direct that he will not be having a 5th fight with Pacquiao. I am really really surprised by this......I didn't see this coming at all. I wonder if he is just posturing? Source:Scene
Juan has Mallinaggi, Bradley & Alexander to choose from to get his shot @147 gold. (5th Title, 5th Division) Vs. Manny it's "Been there, Done that" That KO should free Juan up to try & make his own legacy.
He's right in that he doesn't owe Pacquiao anything. He won that 3rd fight hands down and I believe the 2nd fight too. The 4th was the most emphatic victory imaginable over Pacquiao, so what's left to prove? Head to head, he's the better man.
Pac still has two wins over Marquez. If he's happy with that then there is no reason to rematch. That KO was as good as it is going to get.
I've always been a fan of his but the feeling on ESB has changed towards JMM since the K.O. Before I'm positive he would be getting so much stick for saying this. In any case I'm happy with whatever he decides and it certainly limits the options for Manny.
In all honesty Manny should fight Bradley get that WBO belt back & bring something to the table for Juan to get excited. (Juan already blew his "Wad" as far as Manny goes)
That's a despicable and pathetic move especially when Pacquiao gave him four chances. If Pacquiao didn't give him a fourth shot, which he could have easily, he wouldn't even be in this position.
Except it wasn't Pac, like you and the minions of Pacturds like to believe, that "gave him that chance". It was Arum who had no other fight left that would make good $$$ (Mayweather fight aside since thats never going to happen.). Don't be so naive. Besides, Marquez has earned the right to do whatever the **** he wants, and we are absolutley NOBODY to say what or what NOT should he do.
Absolutely he brought something to the table. Even then he had to build for a rematch everytime. (No immediate shot) What did Juan bring to the table?..."Doubt" in Manny & his teams soul.
Looking like **** at Welter against Mayweather, which is why Team Pac conviniently asked for the fight to be at 144lbs. They very well had his performance against Floyd in mind, and were convinced that Manny will finally get that clear win over him.....Come November 12, 2011, JMM clearly didn't read the script and brought Manny and the rest of his team back to reality. :deal
