Most people had Morales beating David Diaz for the title at 135 in his last fight...the same David Diaz that Pac is going to fight !
OMG! marquez got S30k for the chris john fight!?! And he lost, we know that... Wow, talking about double-whammy...tsk..:-(
Unfortunately for Marquez, his career has been marred by poor business decisions. What I want to know is why is Juan Manuel Marquez ducking Chris John? The guy takes his title and JMM heads the other direction.
morales is a warrior he never ducked anyone..don't spit lies without factsatsch marquez price himself out http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Human:12222 "Marquez also was offered 1.4 million dollars to fight Erik Morales by Bob Arum, however, he asked for more money and the fight never went forward. In March 2006, Marquez traveled to Indonesia to face WBA featherweight champion Chris John, for just $31,500, and lost a unanimous decision." see even if he fought morales and if he lose, it would still do him good and it would still make a name for him, its pretty much a high risk high reward situation.. but look at what he didatsch
Why in the world would Morales duck JMM? Pac was the more dangerous fighter and Morales took that fight. Coming in to the 1st fight a LOT, I mean a LOT of these so called experts thought that EM would get KO'ed. No offense to Max Kellerman, but that is the dumbest sh!t I've ever heard. To say that he ducked JMM is like calling him a *****. All I'm gonna say is he stepped in the ring with Pac after a brutal 2nd fight.
which is why i dont understand why people feel sorry for JMM for being overlooked, for Pacquiao,Morales and Mab. JMM was offered these big fights in 2004 and refused them, for $30,000 just to get robbed in a parking lot halfway across the world. He put himself into the situation of being overlooked. People should have a better understanding now why Arum hates Nacho very much.
Not only that he has NEVER been a DRAW. So for these people that claim EM ducked JMM is ridiculous. Hell if he was offered 1.4M, 750K, or 30K from EM he should have taken it. He fought John in Indonesia for 30K for god's sake. In INDONESIA.
