Alvarez was offered to JMM as a package fight deal to stay with GBP before to went to top rank, it was offered because him an Canelo had a disagreement when JMM said there were more deserving fighters out there of the gift belt that was given to Canelo.
Give him $20m dangling near his hands and he may take the Pacquiao fight. I wish he doesn't fight Pac again. I'd love to watch a full on war between Marquez and Rios, and even Marquez against Bradley. Bradley's a legit top draw.
Depends if Alvarado vs Rios goes about the same way it did last time I am confident that Marquez vs Rios would be a good PPV attraction
And Scumbag Arum is talking about a mini tournament between Pac, Marquez, Bradley and Rios. I guess it could work since Marquez doesn't want Pac. Bradley/Marquez and Rios/Pac. Then a super fight between them, which might generate more money.
Marquez Vs. Bradley/Provdnikov Pacquiao Vs. Rios/Alvarado Double bill w/ The winners squaring off in Nov/Dec. (Is what should happen)
Hopefully Mark stays true to his word.. Because you could potentially put him against any big name between 140-147 and he would make it exciting.
Theres no reason for a fifth fight against Pacquiao. It was clear (who is the best), the goal we had weve already achieved. There is no longer anything pending, its all finalized and for it to happen it would have to be the last option. "No longer anything pending" to me sounds a lot more definite than the stuff he was saying before. Hope it's true, there are other fights. Rios or Bradley would be great.
