    1. Pacquiao needs a fight to stay active for future fight(s) with Mayweather and/or Cotto.

    2. Roach thinks Pacquiao would destroy him a 3rd time around and with Mayweather getting injured delaying the fight, this would be the opportunity to prove this (because if marquez loses 1 more fight w/ out fighting pacquiao, he'll never get a shot)

    3. Marquez (from what I can tell) would do anything to fight pacquiao...Pacquiao's camp would be able to decide the weight, gloves, location, money etc.

    7 weeks is too short of a training camp for Pacquiao to do a trilogy with JMM.

    Arum just said he wants to close the deal by the end of the week for Pac-Cotto. Boxrec already has it penciled in (not a reliable source). This fight is as good as done.

    Simplistically to the boxing fan - no reason and bring it on.

    To Pac - who I believe lost to JMM twice - what's the point?

    He will believe he already beat JMM twice - which, as a matter of fact, he did. Plus he'll make more to fight Cotto and, if he loses, he's not really a welterweight so more big fights out there.

    I don't think Pac is afraid of JMM I just think he doesn't believe he need's him. Every day the fight doesn't happen they both get older but JMM's number always has +5 on it.

    pretty much it's gonna happen. Both are top rank fighters so it's easy to make this fight happen. Plus cotto said he is willing to make this fight at a catchweight.

    because after watching Cotto almost loose a fight he is now going for the easier fight. Plus Cotto is willing to go down in weight which will put him at a disadvantage and Pac is all about taking advantage of these situations.

    **** Marquez Pacquiao its not a fair fight any longer. One guy is prime bigger and kicking ass. The other is the best thing in boxing, but he shouldnt step in with a bigger prime pac at his age. ****in hate to say it, but their business is over

    Pac is going up for bigger payday no doubt about it. Delahoya-Hatton now Cotto and Mayweather in the future. He is going after big money fights now and i can't blame him for that.

    Because Roach fears that JMM will knock Pac out.

    Tend to agree with Radab & Vitor Belfort - the "right" time has passed for Pac & JMM. Pac looking at celeb fights & the $$$$ - he's earned that right. Marquez needs to find the other fights to close his chapter in HOF the way it deserves to end.
