It appears Rafael got his thumb caught in a car door and the fight has been postponed ...
Hopefully the fight gets rescheduled ... between that and Arum stating Manny will never fight JMM again it hasn't been a good week for the Marquez brothers.

I actually like that it got postponed and will be rescheduled. I get tired of these premium cable TV fights where they try to save the Fight Date and search for an "acceptable opponent"
on short notice. It's great when they can find someone decent, but more often than not it ends up being a case where you simply wish they'd have waited.

True ... hopefully they will reschedule it but after the way Arum ridiculed JMM who knows if this is a legit injury or Rafael backing away from an Arum fight. Business is business but that is his brother that Arum was making fun of.

Business is business but that is his brother that Arum was making fun of. True, but it would seem that the best way to get your revenge on Arum would be to knock Juanma off his pedestal. The Brothers aren't ones to back away from a fight........and in this day and age when getting to fight a Top Rank fighter without actually being in their stable is a rarity ;D then I don't see how backing away from the fight does Arum any harm. |

True ... funny thing about Arum is that it seems like he, Roach and Manny never talk to each other.
While Arum is ridiculing JMM, Roach is calling him out and then when Roach was asked what Manny thinks about it he says he doesn't know.
Between that clusterf**k and Floyd's ego it is no wonder that fight will never come off.

I can't disagree that Team Pacquiao seems to be a three headed animal sometimes, with Arum pulling it one way, Roach going another, and Pac/Koncz appearing to be out of the loop, 8000 miles away. I saw Pac mention something about hoping Mayweather would take the November Date several days after Arum had officially buried it, and I was like "Didn't you get the Memo, Manny?"
