"provodinkov is a great fighter but i want the champion at 147 if i fight ruslan i would not get the mandatory to fight the welterweight champion. GTFOH marquez knows all he needs to say is he would fight pacman and it would get signed infact he turned the fight down many times.... he also said ruslan fights at 140 so what ? he moved up to fight Bradley and would move up to face jmm horrible duck but in a way i can understand him ducking ruslan at this stage of his career ......:yep
holy ****n sh!t. How many more ******ed threads are you going to start? we get it. You're a butthurt pacturd who can't deal with KTFO6 You made that clear. :hi:
Pacquiao didn't have a belt at welter until a month ago. And Provodnikov's promoter said they'd only move to 147 for Pacquiao or Bradley. Finally, you have to keep the interests of in-house Bob in mind as well.
@boxing_master, that sh** had me cracking up when he said tand sounded like he knew Ruslan would beat that a**.
his true feeling came out no way would he take that kind of risk at this stage of his career against a crazy guy like ruslan i understand ....
Ruslan also called out Rios but then started whining about the weight. Marquez ducked Provodnikov by fighting Alvarado as much or as little as Pacquiao ducked Alvarado by fighting Rios.
@purephase, Pacquiao wanted Alvarado, but Alvarado was the one who ducked and it was in a interview with either Fight-hype or The Boxing Channel.
Bollocks. Top Rank created some BS story about Alvarado being injured and not ready in time to fight, then booked the Provodnikov fight before Pacquiao-Rios.
