    This is a circus freak show. Ppl complaining about JMM fighting a guy his own size, but instead he's optioned to fight a 154er that can't make 147? What the hell? Nice one GBP, smooth.

    The fight that should be made, in fact...needs to be made is JMM vs Maidana.

    Alvarez would fukin murder jmm. Props to jmm if he takes the fight for the lightmiddle belt but I see no way he wins this... He'd enter the ring at about 144 and he doesn't have the athletic ability to run from saul, nor does he have the power to keep him away. He'd get walked down and stopped imo. Still, balls on the guy if he accepts this fight!

    This stinks. Why don't they offer him 5 million for a Morales fight? Because they won't get much in return. They don't care about JMM, only how much money they can make off him in the rest of his career. They want him to fight Canelo as JMM is the only legend they have left they can use as a stepping stone to further hype Canelo into a PPV attraction. That's what they wanted to use Mosley for, but he screwed them over by getting the Pac fight. JMM would be wise to do likewise

    You need to use your brain for once *******.....


    Mosley had a stake in GBP and his terms in fighting for GBP were on a fight by fight basis.

    Marquez does'nt have a stake in GBP, and he fought for GBP contractually.
    His contract stated that at the end of the terms of agreement, GBP has the right to match any offer that any other promoter would throw JMM's way.

    Marquez cant do what Mosley did, because Mosley did'nt have a multifight contract signed with GBP that stipulated the terms to end the agreement like JMM's does.:deal

    GBP plans JMM-Canelo just for the sake of matching Top Rank's offer looks ridiculous. What's the incentive for JMM in fighting Canelo at 147 aside from the $5 million purse? Nothing... No title either... (Canelo can't even make 147)

    GBP might as well offer JMM $7 million to fight B-Hop if their motive is just to match Top Rank's offer.

    There's no sense in what GBP is doing...

    canelo at 147? is this a joke? :lol:

    oscar and GBP already prostituted jmm before when they let floyd fight jmm even he was over by 2 pounds with the agreed catchweight. you can see jmm complaining but oscar convince jmm to fight on. to make things worst, oscar might have paid for floyd's over the weight fee.

    if i'm jmm and pac is really my goal, why would i take on a circus of an opponent when i had a chance to redeem myself against pacquiao? i could be the first mexican to win 4 titles in 4 different divison (if arce failed) and i could be the next mexican p4p king and my legacy and ATG rankings would shoot through the roof.

    canelo or pacman? LOL

    I hope you all keep this in mind next time you criticize Bob Arum as if he is somehow worse than any other promoter.

    Arum's comment on GBP's JMM vs Canelo plan:

    (From the scene)

    "If they match the offer, then we'll go with someone else. They can make Klitschko vs Marquez for all I care. Lets' worry about this fight first [with Shane Mosley]. Let's see what happens with this fight first but [if Pacquiao wins on Saturday] I'm sure that's the fight [with Marquez] that we're going to look at next"

    LOL :lol:

    I say take the fight and whoop his ****in ass and then fight Pac on top of it.
     
  15. If this is true Marquez should tell Oscar to drink his ****.

    GBP is trying to feed Marquez to Canelo. The Pacquiao fight is much more legit. :deal
