    I just Hope Marquez is competitive and makes a nice payday. Win or lose he's an ATG. This is just him taking on the best which I have no problem with him doing.

    I doubt PBF agrees to this.

    I love PBF. He was my favorite fighter when he was fighting but if he takes this, i have to say i would be dissapointed.

    After retiring as the best WW coming back to fight a man who just made a jump to LW, doesn't feel too right.

    I would figure the perfect fight for him would be Mosley. And wouldn't he get payed more?

    Exactly. I dont know why everyones so hype about this. Marquez is a super featherweight who just had his second fight at lightweight. I dont wanna see beat up on this guy. I'd rather see him fight a true welter like Mosley, Cotto or Williams.

    This is the article:

    Juan Manuel Marquez’s televised “callout” of retired Floyd Mayweather Jr. was not merely a distraction for the Mexican ringmaster’s real desire to land a third fight against archrival Manny Pacquiao.

    Conversations were had and Marquez’s instruction to challenge Mayweather on HBO after his destruction of Juan Diaz came right from the top of the Golden Boy empire, from Oscar De La Hoya and his boss hog, Richard Schaefer.

    *************.com has been informed by the usual inflamed sources that Pretty Boy Floyd is willing to come back for a September Mexican Independence Day Weekend bout in Las Vegas against Juan Ma.

    “Golden Boy kept plugging away,” one man told me. “They want to keep a lock on the Cinco De Mayo and mid-September Mexican holidays in Vegas. Before they locked it in with Oscar but now Marquez steps into the good guy role against Mayweather. Schaefer got encouragement from Mayweather adviser Al Haymon because Floyd has itchy feet. Floyd wants to get back in the ring before this year is over.”

    Besides the usual battle over money, a real sticking point could be what the contractual weight is as smaller man Marquez comes up to meet a solid welterweight in PBF.

    What does this mean for Pacman? Well, assuming he thrashes Ricky Hatton on May 2, Megamanny can take another fight if he so chooses or simply sit back and, if Marquez-Mayweather comes to fruition, just look to fight the winner. Either way, it’s more gold for Manny.”
