    After saying just last week that Marquez was next he has gone on record to say now that it isn't happening!

    Damn shame if you ask me:patsch

    Article over at the hype!

    So is this "yesterday" for Bob, or "today"?

    Look man, you can't really attack Arum for this, it's for the best. The ship has sailed, Pac's too big for him. Despite how well Marquez was doing in the first two fights, you can't hold out much hope for him now, especially when he's not in his prime and Pacquiao is, plus not even at his weight, and he's a counterpuncher who takes shots before he can throw back.

    It's for the best, man. You really don't want to see Marquez get jacked. The Mayweather fight was hard enough. Pacquiao has the potential to rip right through him and actually KO him this time. There's only so much that can keep you standing when a guy like Pacquiao is throwing punches at you.

    Why would you want a Marquez vs Pac III? I don't see this fight competitive at all unless it were at 135-140lbs and Roach won't let Pac fight or give an advantage like that in that weight. At 147lbs Marquez has no chance which is where Roach will request the fight to happen or no fight at all.

    Why wouldn't he? I seem to remember your boy Pacquiao wanted to be with them didn't he! As well as Donaire?

    Marquez was and always will be a stylistic nightmare for Pac

    A fight at 140 would be hugely competitive considering Manny is still a small guy. Marquez has kept his level up... he can still compete with the elites

    I don't see how Marquez would do better against Pacquiao now than he did at 126 or 130. He is older, slower, and a little bit bloated. Even if Pacquiao knocked him out this time around, he wouldn't get much credit because Marquez is not as good above 130 as he was at feather and super feather.

    I think the fight to be made is Pac vs Bradley.

    I guess the plan was to get Berto but Ortiz threw a giant wrench into those plans:lol:

    Have people not learned from Morales vs Maidana or ANY of the shock defeats recently? The first two fights were GREAT so I truly believe the third would be also and to be honest it's not like Clottey, Margo were exciting and who else is he gonna fight after Mosely? Cintron? Lol!!

    I believe Marquez would give him hell at 140 don't count him out so easily, I think he wants PAC more than just a pay day!
