Manny Pacquiao: Bad Blood Prevents Third Pacquiao Vs. Marquez Fight

By Troy Sparks

After Juan Manuel Marquez beat Juan Diaz Saturday, he focused his attention on Manny Pacquiao.

Pac-Man may not give Marquez what he wants, which is a third fight against each other.

The pro-Manny supporters who thinks that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is scared of Pacquiao should ask why Pacquiao could be ducking Marquez.

As you know, these two fighters have a history.

In May 2004, Pacquiao escaped with a draw against Marquez in the 12-round Featherweight bout for Marquez' WBA and IBF belts.

The match was scored, 115-110, Marquez and 115-110, Pacquiao.

The third judge who called it even at 113-113 said he made a mistake, giving Pacquiao a 10-7 advantage in the first round instead of 10-6.

Where is that judge now?

How could he make a mistake like that?

Almost four years later, in 2008, they fought again.

Pacquiao won a split decision over Marquez.

Tell me, was that highway robbery?

Golden Boy Promotions offered Pac-Man a guaranteed $6 million deal to fight Marquez a third time, which was turned down.

Any grudge that Pacquiao had against Golden Boy was taken out on its CEO, Oscar de la Hoya.

De la Hoya, as you know, was no match for Pac-Man.

To Mayweather, $6 million is chump change.

To shut the Mayweather naysayers up, I think Pacquiao should go through with the Antonio Margarita fight, which is nothing more than a "sparring session."

Then, Pacquiao would be wise to challenge Mayweather, and he can put Marquez to the back of the line.

When the Mayweather camp offered the Pacquiao camp a deal with Olympic-style drug testing, I thought they were within their rights to set the terms of the comditions.

After Top Rank refused to go by those terms, Mayweather believed Pacquiao used drugs while boxing.

It was also Pac-Man's right to file a lawsuit against Mayweather for lying, if indeed "Money" was lying.

Marquez is better than ever now.

Does drinking his own urine have something to do with that?

At least, if Marquez took a urine test for drugs, he won't let any yellow fluid go to waste.

It looks like Marquez' skills are still there.

Since Top Rank and Golden Boy won't work together to create a Pacquiao vs. Marquez III match, rework the deal with Team Mayweather.

The way Marquez is fighting right now, Pacquiao don't a piece of him because he'll lose.
