    not likely because he says that marquez can't fight above 135 lbs and pac has been fighting at ww limit and pac doesn't need to fight at 142 or143 but doesn't he realized that pac weighed 144 when he boxed margarito.

    Pac has nothing to gain from beating Marquez. Same as Mosley.

    it seems that Mosley was willing to drop Golden Boy and take a smaller cut than Marquez.

    pac is basically fighting to stay busy

    easy fight, alot of money, and hopefully wont take hardly any damage or have to go through a really tough training camp that will take anything outta him

    mosley is the smarter choice when waiting for mayweather

    Bingo, Pacs just chillin waiting for floyd to get his life together long enough to fight. There not gonna risk the mega fight by taking high risk / low reward bouts like berto or bradley or whoever. He's in a holding pattern till it becomes 100% clear that floyd will never take the fight, then they will smash the young bucks and call it a day.

    I hope floyd finds his nuts and fast, this fight is starting to smell like old milk. Get this **** on, enough time has been wasted on bull**** excuses. Lets just make this thing happen so boxing can move on...

    That's not true. he has more to gain in fighting Marquez a third time then he did in fighting Morales the third time IMO

    Pac and Morales weighed the same back then and were 1-1. JMM is a LW today, Pac isn't. Nor are they 1-1.

    I would like to see the trilogy but I think Pac stops Marquez at this point. Good fight at 140.

    There is no way in hell Arum will run the risk (however small) of Pac losing his belts to a Golden Boy fighter.

    Anyone know whats in the negotiations? weight? gloves size? ring size? purse split?

    All Pacquiao gain is hopefully more money fighting mosley, but that might be in trouble too.

    Pac doesn't have the movement or the defence to keep up with Marquez who would have him chasing his tail and hitting gloves for the majority of the fight. He might well win based on punch output and aggression but it won't be by stoppage.
