Juan Manuel Marquez was spotted in London on Thursday afternoon, as he took a minute to give his fans and update on the latest with his career.

Marquez is coming off a thorough outclassing of Mike Alvarado this past May and still remains a hot ticket in the sport. Speaking with IFL TV’s Kugan Cassius, Marquez showed his appreciation for being overseas ahead of his stable mate Daniel Estrada’s showdown with Kevin Mitchell on Saturday night.

Juan Manuel Marquez explains why he passed on a showdown with Provodnikov; unsure about 5th Pacquiao fight

On May 17, one of this generation’s great technicians steps back into the ring when Juan Manuel Marquez meets up with Mike Alvarado in an HBO showcase from the revamped Forum in Los Angeles.

Having just turned 40, Marquez is coming off of a bitter split-decision loss to Tim Bradley this past October 12 in which he performed relatively well outside of being outhustled in certain rounds.

One week after that bout, Alvarado was stopped in brutal fashion by Ruslan Provodnikov in another wild encounter.

Marquez had nothing but nice things to say about Alvarado, calling the Denver native a “great fighter” and emphasizing how hard he is going to have to train for this tussle.

As for Provodnikov, Marquez again noted why he decided to pass on an opportunity to face the affable Russian slugger.

“Provodnikov is a great fighter,” Marquez explained. “He’s a champion. I was the champion in super lightweight. I don’t want to champion in the same weight. I want to be champion in welterweight. I don’t fight with Provodnikov because Provodnikov is a super lightweight champion.”

If Marquez finds a way to beat Alvarado, he could very well be in line for a crack at the winner of the April 12 Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley rematch.

Marquez knows each man very well, having faced Pacquiao four times already, yet he doesn’t want to look too far ahead at this point.

“I don’t know what [will] happen in the future,” said Marquez. “I can’t say nothing right now.”

As noted in our previous post, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum is pleased with all aspects of the April 12 rematch between WBO welterweight titlist Tim Bradley and eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao.

What I also personally find interesting about the fight is just how much attention Juan Manuel Marquez will be giving to the match.

According to Arum, the Mexico City legend has expressed interest in facing the Pacquiao-Bradley II winner in an effort to land himself a belt in a fifth weight class.

“There seems no reason for him to fight [Ruslan] Provodnikov,” Arum said, referencing the Russian star who had called out Marquez.

“Marquez really wants only one thing before he retires,” Arum continued. “He wants to win that title. And he has indicated to us that he would be very available to fight the winner of Pacquiao and Bradley in the fall.”

Marquez lost a split-decision to Bradley this past October and ten months prior he scored his lone victory over Pacquiao with a devastating sixth round knockout in their fourth encounter.

Marquez had vehemently opposed a fifth meeting with Pacquiao in the past but now seems to have a different mindset.

“That is correct, so he’s obviously changed his tune,” Arum stated. “He doesn’t want to face Pacquiao again if Pacquiao is not successful with Bradley. But if Pacquiao is successful with Bradley, he has stated that he wants to face Pacquiao.”
