Does JMM not want another fight with Pacquiao? He didn't seem all that interested

    Avoided Kellerman's question about it twice - couldn't even give a Yes/ No answer.

    I don't think he wants to make history anymore, as he has intended before Bradley beat him.

    I dont think JMM can resist the money. Can't blame him if he doesn't. Its still a 50/50 fight.

    He either wants more money or really doesn't want another fight with Pac. Only time will tell.

    :deal

    JMM is using some leverage by not committing to the fight before negotiations start. Smart move!

    I'm not so sure about the money - he can easily bargain that to his benefit even if he said yes immediately when asked. It's hardly a gold bargaining chip he's got. JMM needs the fight more than Pac needs it if he really wants a piece of boxing history. It would be nice for Pac to see if he can get some revenge but he actually has more options than JMM does.

    If JMM is bargaining, I hope he goes for a Mexican location fight so both parties get well paid.

    It's all about the dinero. JMM knows he is big pay day for Pac. If they try to low ball, he'll give them the finger like he's already done.

    I don't think Marquez would be interested.
    He dominated Pac in the 3rd fight and KO'd him in the 4th fight.

    If that is not putting the issue to bed, I don't know what is.

    That interview was Juan's way of saying there is no need for a 5th fight...
    The 4th was supposed to be the "End" & he ended it.

    A 5th fight would simply be taken only for the money, I seriously doubt it will happen.

    Yes, he does. Why not? Another fight with Pacquiao means a huge sum of money. However, it's up to Pacquao. I think that Pac wants to redeem his KO loss.

    Pacquiao will be cautious this time. He will box not brawl.

    My initial reaction was JMM really doesn't want to fight Pac ever again. There really is no leverage issue cause he's already got it. He koed Pac. I don't think this fight will happen unless the $$ figures eventually entice him.

    What would his motivation be? He outboxed him in the third fight, and knocked him out the last one.
