A MOUTH-WATERING $800,000 offer to fight Juan Manuel Marquez of Mexico has reached the desk of the man widely credited for bringing Manny Pacquiao fame and fortune.
Rod Nazario said US promoter Murad Muhammad is dangling that amount to Pacquiao for him to rumble with Marquez, who now holds the World Boxing Association (WBA) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) featherweight titles.
Nazario said he will study the proposal, although he doesn?t want to talk about delicate boxing issues until after the holidays.
It was Marquez who was the first to issue a challenge to the heavy-handed Pacquiao following the General Santos City native?s 11th-round knockout win over Marco Antonio Barrera at the Alamodome in Texas last month.
