Cause Sturm is too comfortable in Germany doing what ODLH did to him in the states.

Sturm knows what would happen, I do remember an interview where Sturm said, “That would be a fight we’d love to do. The American fans still remember me from my fight against Oscar de la Hoya. Sergio Martinez is the man to beat right now. He clearly beat Paul Williams and Kelly Pavlik. To be the undisputed middleweight champion, you have to defeat Martinez. I’d love this fight,” Sturm said.

Doesn't Sturm promote his own fights?

The reason is that Sturm doesn't fight fighters who having punching power...

He always says he wants to fight the best but in the end... he said this fight today was the fight of his life. If he really wants to fight at 160 he should have probably declared Martinez as the fight of his life

I think Martinez rises to the occasion and would have shown up big time and ***** on Sturm badly
