On September 15th in Las Vegas, Martinez defeated Canelo's countryman Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (46-1-1, 32KOs), while a few miles away Canelo beat down Josesito Lopez over five rounds.

Following their respective fights, Martinez mentioned Canelo as a potential opponent in early 2013. Martinez, a former junior middleweight champion, is willing to return to 154-pounds to make the fight.

Props to the Canelo Team for putting this out there... Critics are always saying something stupid! Either Canelo is too big for his opponents or too green for top p4p contenders...

Lol Cintron was knocked out by Martínez and also defeated via points.

I know all you guys hate Canelo but you guys are putting alot of faith in a 37 yr coming back healthy. And these are signifigant injuries. Knee ligament damage is no joke especially with a fighter like Martinez who relys on movement. Plus you have the hand injury. Martinez doesnt have access to the best doctors and trainers like NBA or NFL players. He could be on the shelf for a while.

Martinez's doctor is also the doctor of the King of Spain...

Canelo would likely be a bigger challenge than Chavez Jr. was, at least in terms of skill. However, of course Chavez has the advantage of being gigantic which Canelo wouldn't have. Martinez takes it but I think Canelo will go places as long as they step up the competition soon.

You're right. Chavez just decided that he didn't want to fight until the 12th. It was nothing to do with Martinez outclassing him and nullifying his offense for the previous 11 rounds....

And also, calling Martinez "boring" is rich considering that your guy through about 3 punches in the opening 11 rounds....

....and Canelo? Who has he actually fought? Aside from small guys, old guys and small old guys? If he beat someone legit I wouldn't hate on him but he has to be the biggest hype job(after Chavez jr) in recent years in boxing.

And why would we mexican fans be afraid of some gay ass pansy whom came out of the fight with staples ,broken bones,torn ligaments and stictches????while our guy only suffered a black eye?Anyone from 154lbs to 60isnt afraid of Gaytinez after what Chavez did to him I garuntee you.

"Gaytinez"? Come on, man.....you can do better than that.

Who in their right mind would stand and trade for 12 rounds with someone who outweighs them by 25 pounds?? I get that you're Mexican and your pissed off that your guy lost but you actually sound deluded. There's more to boxing than infighting...

I'm more worried if Sergio fought Canelo and DIDNT knock him out. I don't know who moves their head less, Canelo or Jr. jr is at least huge...Canelo just takes the hits because he's fighting smaller opposition who shouldnt even be in the weight class... I also don't like how in most his fights he seems to gas down the stretch... that's just terrible news against Martinez. If Canelo somehow made it to a decision, his face would be in tatters, possibly permanent damage.

Canelo isn't ready for Martinez..They'd be stupid to let this happen.
