Definitely yes. The history between him and Pacman alone plus the fact that he is the premier LW in the world now for several years and a top 140lb fighter should guarantee that amount. Whether Pacman wins or loses JMM will put up a fight for 12 rounds. Why is Pacman afraid of an almost 40yr old fighter smaller than Mosley? Does he see and his team see something the rest of us can't? I think he knows JMM has his number.
Under the current circumstances he won't get 5 million. Whether he deserves it or not is irrelevant. I personally don't think he does, when bigger draws and Top Rank fighters Cotto and Margo were gauranteed 4 and 3 million respectively. Marquez needs to accept what's on offer if he really is so desperate for the fight, as his punk ass has been acting like he is. If not, then he rejects the fight and needs STFU for good about it and can go fight for purses of a million or under against lightweights.
Considering Pacquiao vs JMM 3 will be at 147 lbs max; What does JMM have done after their 2nd fight? - Defeated Casamayor at 135 - Defeated Juan Diaz at 135 - Lost to Mayweather at 146 - Defeated Juan Diaz again at 135 - Defeated Katsidis at 135 See, JMM seems not to pose any challenge for PAC at 147. JMM just want to fight PAC for the money. I think $3 million is enough for him if he insists... It's not revenge or justice JMM is seeking, it's purely retirement money or else JMM is seeking revenge and justice for his loss to Chris John too. But JMM not even mentioning John's name...:-D:rofl
NO! But I think JMM deserves a third fight with Pac although I believe he will not be as competitive at 147 as he was in the previous fights.
