    According to the scene.

    His contract has run out but GBP have 30 days to negotiate a new one.

    Does anybody else hope that Marquez doesn't sign again for Golden Boy, and that he follows Mosley's lead and heads to TR to get his 3rd fight with Pacquiao? I can't see TR and GBP working together to deliver the fight.

    I think Marquez is still one of the best possible opponents for Manny, and I can't see what better fights there could be for JMM if he stays with GBP.

    Marquez shouldn't sign with GBP again.

    He'd be best remaining as a free agent signing one-fight deals according to the opponent.

    There's nothing at 135 for him..... two wins over Diaz, a win each against Casamayor and Katsidis.

    Fight Pacquiao then settle at 140.

    To be fair I can understand Arum wanting to screw GBP & HBO, they've treat everyone else like **** while they just give all the money to Oscar. Can't beat it when a GBP hypejob gets chinned.

    Honestly I am not intrested in a 3rd Pacquiao fight which will only serve to dilute and diminish the impact of the first two fights.

    Would rather see him stay and Lightweight and defend his titles, build a legacy and try and become a top 10 Lightweight in history or move up to 140lbs and fight Judah leading to a Khan/Bradley fight.

    1 fight deals have to be the only option for him, anything other than that at this stage is pointless...:yep
