    Having watched Marquez overcome yet another opponent in impressive style yesterday I have to wonder why M.P won't take the fight!

    Everyone is using the EXCUSE Manny would beat him this time as he is a much better fighter, I just don't agree Marquez has the best style to give Manny fits 9as we have seen)

    He didnt even beat him more convincingly in the second fight how many years later than the first? Surely he was developing as a boxer all that time too?

    Come on Manny since we can't have the Mayweather fight give us the Marquez fight, Margarito/Clottey none of those fights were as good as any of your fights with Marquez so get in there.

    Time we all start calling this for what it is a blatant DUCK!

    No reason whatsoever why the fight can't be made we know Marquez can do good PPV numbers when put with a star (see Mayweather fight) the ONLY reason not to take it is because Manny is scared!

    you can't be ducking someone who you've already fought twice.

    seeing as jmm is still in good form and a live opponent, i prefer that this fight be made at 140 as opposed to the rumored pac-shane fight, if floyd is still not available.

    Im sorry he fought him twice none of which were conclusive even if you give the second fight to Manny it still deserves a 3rd match!!

    Stop trying to make excuses were boxing fans we are supposed to want to see the best fights and Marquez vs Manny >>>>>>>>>> Manny vs Margarito/Clottey

    Some of you guys are really fanatics! Any excuse to defend Manny!!

    Why else wouldn't he fight him? Its not the money it would generate, Manny is either being protected or he is scared to lose to him!

    roach has said he wants to make this fight. I doubt manny is scared of Marquez. If the fight can generate good PPV buys then it'll probably get made.

    ....or manny has hit a different wage bracket.

    EDIT : and that wage bracket rarely goes under welter

    If it was a dangerous fight and where you possibly lost both fights, then yes of course you can deny him a third fight.

    pac generated 700k with clottey. Clottey contributed around 10 of those ppv buys. Roach doesn't have to worry about ppv buys.

    you won't be seeing manny in the ring with any quality counter-punchers
