Kellerman needs to get his facts straight. Morales never ducked JMM, its the other way around. After the 1st Pac fight, he was offered $1.5 million to fight Morales. JMM refused and wanted $3 million (a pay day Morales has never seen himself in his entire career).
very true, **** kellerman for spewting lies.. There is an article if you people care take your time to research. JMM was offered about 1.5mil to fight el terrible but JMM ask for more. Morales ducked no one!
Not to mention he believes JMM has won every fight hes ever had Its safe to say this guy has a over zealous bias towards JMM.
i don't know the real story but i think nacho was over-protective of marquez. he did not permit to fight naz. also he did not approve of an immeadiate rematch with pac. also about the arum offer to fight morales. maybe not all marquez' fault but any of them could be true. that's why i admire barrera more for fighting all of them.
Its also funny how he claims JMM was the best of the fab 4 featherweights. Other than this joke that Morales ducked him. He has him beating Pacquiao twice, thats very nice Kellerman, alot of people had Norton beating Ali in all 3 fights does that make him the best heavyweight in that era? And as for Barrera, he gets credit for beating someone the same guy many people were mad at Pacquiao for fighting again last October? Oh thats right Barrera was in his prime last March specifically for the JMM fight...so Pacquiao gets no credit for his rematch win, right? Other than a old Barrera who are JMM's best wins; Juarez, Gainer, Peden? Best resume of the fab 4 bunch.....you gotta be friggn kidding me. Blame Nacho for all I care, but when history is said and done, JMM is no where near above the other fab 4 featherweights.
So says Bob Arum! The same Bob Arum who once was quoted as saying, "I was lying yesterday, today I'm telling the truth!" Did you see poor Bob Arum making a fool of himself and while yelling and screaming and using expletives, bereated Nacho Beristein. The reason why Arum has such a dislike for Nacho is that Nacho was one of the few and maybe the only Latino fight manager that he was'nt able to use as a puppet! Arum hated Nacho Beristein with a passion, and his expletive ridden tirade last saturday night directed toward Nacho is proof of that!
arum probably got finally fed up w/ beristain & jmm when they refused his offer of the 1.5M for the erik fight and then turned down his other offer of 750k for the immediate pac rematch. that effectively signalled the end of jmm's tenure as a top rank fighter. from then on, arum couldn't care less what happened to them and this culminated in that ignonimous $30k loss to chris john in indonesia. beristain and jmm have no one to blame but themselves for this. top rank did its part, they didn't.
This debate of Nacho rejecting Arum offers have been done to nauseum. I'm not about to rehash them again. That would be a waist of time and energy......it really comes down to who is more credible and who you believe. You either believe Arum on the matter or you believe Nacho. Personally, I feel real good about taking my chances with Nacho!
Why not let Erik fight JMM at 135 while PAC is busy with David Diaz? Erik-JMM is a good undercard to PAC-DDiaz main event title fight.
are you kidding? :rofl think about it. that's certainly much worse than jmm considering another fight w/ barrera while pac is busy w/ diaz. atsch
this is to settle the issue on who duck who... it should be erik vs. jmm since they haven't fought yet...
