    Were you high while watching the fight?
    Marquez always marksup easy but he was dishing out just as much as he was taking especially when it comes to murdering the body.

    Almost everyone agrees the fight was close on the rounds with Pac usually up by 1.
    No ass whoopin was taking place.

    JMM always marks up is your argument? He could have been clean as a whistle and it wouldn't have changed the fact that PAC was landing cleanly....at a higher connect percentage and broke bones. Me being high has nothing to do with having the ability to see kid.

    If you are trying to tell me that Juan was giving as good as he got then you can't be taken seriously.

    Why the hell not? Thats only 1/2 as much as PBF would make & JMM is TWICE as much fun to watch than that chicken**** Floyd.

    This is for the most part true....Floyd has been a lot more exciting facing these last few opponents but without quesiton JMM is more of a fan friendly fighter.

    Unfortunately if what a fighter was paid was based on their exciting fights then guys like Gatti and Ward would have been at the top of the food chain. Getting the lions share in this sport depends on what you are able to produce in PPV and gate revenue.

    Juan never wanted the fight at all. (thankfully) I don't see why he'd change his mind.

    Asking for 20 mil is probably his way of telling Ol' BeezelBob to **** off, without looking like a duck.

    Of course, it could backfire & Uncle Bob might actually agree to that amount (the fight would likely break all PPV records) but then heck, 20 mil buys a LOT of tortillas.

    Honestly he should get at least 20 million. He in my opinion shouldn't give Pacquiao a rematch at all. Pacquiao hasn't earned a rematch having just been knocked out.

    If there isn't then why force a 5th fight? Fans aren't asking for this fight. Only Pacquiao is asking for this fight and no one else.

    5th fight wont be bigger if it happens right now. No one is interested in that fight right now. Pacquiao needs to take a tuneup or two to build up for it. The only way this fight will make money is if it's in Mexico or The Philippines.

    5th fight will not be that big. People don't really care about manny anymore. And by the time a 5th fight rolled around, people will care even less.

    JMM will be 40-41 when this fight, if it does happen, actually goes down.

    5th fight is not that appealing as the "star", manny, is no longer a star. Plain and simple

    I think 5th will be bigger as the 4th was Fight of the Year quality. PAC vs JMM match-up will always produce a compelling, competitive, exciting, roller coaster, entertaining fight. 5th fight will not be any different.

    The attraction to this fight won't hinged on Manny being a "star". It's all about the match-up.
