    I think he should. Not because he doesn't have the skills to compete anymore (obviously) but because the only thing that kept him going was a third crack at Pacquiao. Marquez chased him up the scale just to get ripped off again. For me, he has nothing left to prove. He's 38, fought the best, and beat Manny when he was considered a demi-god. Marquez put his heart and soul into this last fight. Maybe a fight for a belt at 140 but not much more. What do you all think?

    If he still feels motivated for a 4th fight vs Pacquiao then he should fight on, if he isn't then he should retire.

    But obviously he will fight again if they offer him the 10 million $ deal, motivated or not.

    I think he's lost motivation for another Pacquiao fight, judging by his comments. A potential fight with Morales would probably get his attention though. Fight on Juan Manuel.

    I'm not sure. He could face fighters like Rios, but if he's gonna stick around just to fight Pacquiao again, he might as well should just retire. All three fights were so similar, the fourth one won't be any different.
