The negotiations for a Pavlik-Martinez fight are not going well at all from what I understand. Dibella leary of having Martinez fight on the same night of the super six which he's involved in, and he doesn't like the money that Top Rank is offering. I think we'll see a Martinez-Williams rematch instead. I don't know if Martinez really wants that fight and I can't say I blame him. From his point of view, why fight a dangerous guy for good, but not great money if one of the judges are gonna be bought off by Al Haymon. I'm a Paul Williams fan, but that one scorecard was totally uncalled for.
Pretty sure the Martinez fight will happen next, so long as Kelly stays fit and healthy from now 'til then. Not sure how far along they are in negotiations - can't remember seeing many reports on here lately.
If it does happen I think we'll see him lose and possibly drop out of the limelight for good. He's so mentally fragile I dunno whether he could take another loss.
I'm not 100% sure on this but I heard there were some serious talks about a potential fight with Sergio Martinez and also with Felix Sturm.
Both fights would be good for me, it's time he steps it up (again).
