You're not crazy

I love how people point out that Hopkins has had trouble against quick fighters but forget to mention that Martinez has trouble against fighters who step back and counter...

A prime Hopkins would damn near shut Sergio out.

This dude spars a punching bag and now he can beat a Prime Hopkins?

I know what your saying and think your bang on.

Thets not forget Hopkins does have 6 losses, he shouldn't have this aura of invincibility Mayweather has on this forum.

Leave it to Hopkins, to draw attention to himself...that's how he rolls. I must admit, it's done good for him in his career though.

Martinez won virtually every round against Barker and knocked him out.

Also, Macklin isn't a counter puncher. He was purely more defensive minded than usual and raiding in attack. Once again though, Martinez was ahead on the cards and knocked him out.

The good, athletic fighters with speed being Jones (with a broken hand), Taylor, Dawson and Calzaghe all beat B-Hop...although Calzaghe shouldn't have.

Did Bernard Hopkins just say that Martinez fights just like Pavlik?

That their styles are similar?
