    Bob is trying to make Marquez an offer he can't refuse. Boxing politricks.

    Lets remember that there is a massive difference between random vada testing and the completely useless commission test. It all depends on scheduling but things can slip through the cracks even with designer drugs. The best they will do is some altered additional testing for good PR. Neither camp wants any 'proper' testing imo. Like I said they should work out a deal like Floyd has with USADA then everyone will be clean and proper (LOL).

    I agree with what you say, but the inconvenience factor lays heavy on team Pacquiao since he will be the one giving in to demands this time. That's the point of additional requests.
    I think expecting clean fighters went to hell when they're working with the likes of Heredia, Conte, Ariza etc..
    I'd ask Manny to wear his itchy socks and winning gloves if I were Marquez.

    He does, that is why he sticking around still. Marquez knows that he won't get a better payday than to fight Manny for a 5th time. The ball is on his court and he can even request a $10 million payday or a bit better. He can't get too greedy tough because he will be ****ing himself over. Knowing Arum, he will just move along with Manny if Marquez tries to go overboard. Bradley, Rios or anyone else won't give Marquez what he is about to make and he knows it. If he really wasn't intersted in a 5th fight he would of retired already.

    If Team Pac walks away, Marquez won't be concerned at all. He's in a win-win situation. He knows even if he loses out on a major payday he'll still get a chance to fight for a milestone: 5th title (most by any Mexican). The worst case JMM can be in is probably a fight with Rios which isn't bad at all considering it'd be a fight the fans will love to see. He's resuming his career knowing he doesn't need a gigantic payday but obviously he'll try and snatch the opportunity if it's easy enough to take. Keep in mind Arum very much wants MP to avenge his loss and make a fortune along the way. Therefore Arum isn't likely to turn away from JMM so easily.

    Is Marquez a Top Rank fighter or just on a per fight basis?

    "Kill or be Killed" huh?


    So lets say the 5th takes place and Juan wins AGAIN...what will the 6th fight be named? Because you know there will want to make another one if Manny doesn't win.

    it's already the objective of the 4th fight and i think will remain if there's a 5th.

    if there's a 6th, it will be titled "survivor vs ghost" since one is literally dead already.

    $$$

    Who else is there for that kind of money? May? Canelo?

    Best option for Risk/reward: Rios

    Pacquiao will retire - there simply will not be a 6th. The only reason the V is so big is because no one expected a) such an explosive toe toe fight b) a KO win considering previous 3 and c) for Pacquiao to be KO'd

    After V there simply is nowhere to go - PAcquiao loses by KO he's finished, if either win by a close decision it's same old, same old and that's it. If Pacquiao KO's Marquez then Marquez has no more cards left to play and Pac moves on to Mayweather for a last hurrah
