Marquez: ?Stop making excuses Manny? fight me!?

Courtesy of Igor Frank, check out some post fight comments from Juan Manuel Marquez last night after his impressive ninth round TKO of Michael Katsidis.

Juan Manuel Marquez: ?I deserve a third fight with Manny Pacquiao. I want to show you all my new T-shirt (see photo). I know there are a lot of good fighters out there who deserve to fight me. But I feel that without a doubt I made my claim and I deserve a third fight with Pacquiao.?

?I think what Freddie Roach said (about a catch-weight) is bad. I think they?re trying to come up with another excuse. I think the fans deserve to see a third fight between us? Mexican fans, Filipino fans, all boxing fans! I?ll go up to 140 pounds, it?s no problem. Stop making excuses Manny, fight me!?
