Pacquiao vs Marquez round 3?

Juan Manuel Marquez didn’t waste any time after defending his lightweight title before setting his sights on Round 3 with Manny Pacquiao. Marquez stopped Michael Katsidis in the ninth round Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, winning an all-action battle and certain candidate for Fight of the Year.

“Obviously, Pacquiao is my priority. I’ll go up to 140 (pounds), it’s no problem,” Marquez said through a translator. “Stop making excuses, Manny. Fight me.”

Will this ever happen?

The two have met twice before, and both of the bouts were thrilling. They fought to a 12-round draw in 2004, and Pacquiao won a close split decision in March 2008.
