IS J.M. MARQUEZ A MUCH NEEDED CHALLENGE OR MORE OF THE SAME?

San Mateo, CA—Although the ink has not yet been laid on paper, Manny Pacquiao’s November 12, 2011, opponent is scheduled to be Juan Manuel Marquez. Pacquiao is coming off a dominant, but not as impressive as many expected, victory of Shane Mosley last May. Marquez has not fought since November 27, 2010, when he stopped lightweight challenger, Michael Katsidis, in nine rounds. In terms of the marketing and the appeal of the fight, this matchup is by far the best matchup for Pacquiao—other than Floyd Mayweather Jr. Pacquiao and Marquez have fought twice in the past (2004 and 2008), and both of those fights were candidates for fight of the year....

No stone shall remain unturned: Pacquiao – Marquez and more

Pacquiao/Marquez- After Pacquiao smashes Marquez in dramatic fashion, I want to see Pacquiao call out Mayweather loud and proud. I am fed up with this ” I’m just doing my job” line. I am also fed up with Pacquiao stating that he doesn’t have to fight Mayweather because it doesn’t make or break his great career.

Enough of the nice guy role, call him out, dog him, take him into the dirt and drag him. And please do not say that you will fight whomever your promoter wants you to fight, because if that’s the case, I feel that...
