I was thinking about this fight today after the Porter-Jordan fight happening yesterday. For those who have never seen it or want to see it again.

The jab is the key to beating Martinez. The thing with Martinez is, he uses movement and pot shots you until he starts havings problems with the jab Then when he has a tendency of trying to outwork with faster hands and bigger shots. He likes to stay in the pocket most of the time, but he'll move around from time to time to keep the other guy from getting his timing. Has a big tendency to trade shot for shot with the guy.
I think if Pavlik keeps jabbing throughout the fight, he'll win it. Martinez seems to have trouble with height and that jab like the first couple of mintues with the Jordan fight.

Then he adjusted and started to whoop as$.....
Pavlik probably will win, just because he is so much larger though. Martinez belongs at 154. I would love for Martinez to beat Pavlik though.

Someone needs to tell Jordan he would be a great sparring candidate to prepare the opponents of Paul Williams. Granted he is not as active, fast or powerful but he has a very similiar style and his physical attributes are perfect. Cintron's people should get a hold of this guy.

Very underrated win for Martinez. Russel Jordan is awarkard customer to handle and look good against.
But Sergio totally took him apart. Jordan recently give touted prospect Shawn Porter a run for his money and a fight Porter failed to impress in.
