Did Marquez owe Pacquiao anything? I see several people saying that Marquez owed him a 5th fight.

    He doesn't owe him jack, never did

    People claim that Pacquiao, out of the kindness of his heart gave him multiple chances at redemption. WRONG. He was robbed in the first 3 fights and the rematches all happened 4 years apart from one another, the only reason why he had those opportunities was because Pacquiao needed someone to make money off of. Marquez generated that cake, so that's why the fights were made, not because of Pacquiao's good heart, ffs. :dunno

    Arum knew this and that's why Marquez's name was constantly brought up, he was practically the only guy out of Floyd Mayweather, Jr from 2011-2012 that brought in good ppv buys.

    Marquez got the stoppage of his life and he deserves to go out on his own terms. He doesn't owe that man ****.

    That last punch will be in his memory for life, that kind of memory has no value. You can't buy that with money. After 8+ years of robberies, injustices, he finally gets justice.
    It was truly beautiful. :headbash

    There was supposed to have been a 5th right, but Marquez chickened out.................Marquez was on his way to getting knocked out, he was outclassed, Marquez was lucky that Pac got careless and was caught with a lucky punch, not to mention the roids, check out who was in Marquez' camp!

    Yes, he did. Pacquiao is the only fighter that JMM wants to fight him the most. That's the truth.

    He didn't owe him shyte,

    When a guy wants to retire I don't call that ducking. Unless he keeps fighting like Fluid is, lmao

    Ducking is when you fight guys that aren't on your same level, while DUCKING guys that are on your same level. Its cheating the fan of the level outcome they PAY to see.

    They kept rematching so that Pac could win convincingly, not so that Marquez could finally defeat him. Marquez owed him nothing.

    Blah blah blah
    Pac all time ranking is higher than both Marquez and floyd.
    This is irrefutable regardless their head to head result.

    Jmm wasn't gonna get robbed again a 3rd time he went for broke. Once he hommed in on Pacman's kisser the 1rst time Marquez planted the atomic chingazo for good and it was goodnight sweet princess.

    How much of a hateful troll can you be? JMM absolutely owes Pac a fifth fight, but given that JMM has always been a sore loser and later on a drug cheat, no one expected anything less.

    Negative. They rematch because the fights were close, could've gone either way. Not because Pac wanted to keep giving Marquez chances lol that's stupid.

    Oh and money. They made a popular match up.

    I too feel that JMM was robbed in many of those fights, but after the second fight, Pac didnt really have to give any rematches to JMM. You say Pac was chasing the money? Lets be honest. . . those fights made JMM a very rich man, and JMM needed those fights way more then Pac did.

    Also, im sure you will just re-write history, but JMM was getting his ass whooped in that 4th fight. Pac just got over zealous and blindly charged into a perfectly placed right hand. . .

    I truly enjoy watching both of those fighters, and they are both legends of the sport, but there was many many many options out there for Pac to make money. JMM was always a dangerous opponent for Pac and he put his nuts on the line 4 times.

    Arum and Pac didn't want to pay Marquez enough to make the fifth fight so it wasn't made. That's on Arum and Pac not Marquez.

    Who were the options for Pacquiao at the time of the third fight? And before you respond keep in mind that this was during a period where Bob would ONLY match him against in-house opponents.
