I LOL if he is referring to HEIGHT.
Paul Williams has a GREATER height advantage over him than the one he has over PACQUIAO.
Paul Williams is taller than 6'1. Let's start at that. Martínez IS 5'10, tops.
On paper, it's a 4 inch height advantage for Williams over Sergio. More like 5, almost 6, in reality. Williams got sh*tted.
Margo had a 4 1/2 inch advantage over Pac. He got sh*tted.
Sergio would have a 3 1/2 inch advantage over Pac. That is less than what Margo had, and less than what Paul had against himself.
So... I don't get Sergio's reasoning IF he is referring to height. If he is referring to other stuff, like bone density, X-morphic body, etc. then he might be right.
Sergio is showing off now because he put in a performance like pac did against hatton.
But pac was threatening the ko from the outset of the fight with hatton going down many times. Sergio just found a lucky punch against PW.
Sergio said no body could beat Pac the other day, and now seems to be backtracking on the basis of his last night performance. Its all mouth and testoterone talking though.
martinez realize that he is bigger and has a lot of advantage .. he just knows pac too small...
i really like martinez when he said it, he is not cherrypicking fighters smaller than him
I have no idea why people are complaining about the size differential between Pac and Sergio Martinez. Pac fought Margarito who basically weighed in as a middleweight come fight time according to the reports I've seen. As for Pac coming into light, there was a huge thread saying how there's no weight minimum for a division. On top of that, isn't Pac a JMW titlisit? In essence, he's only a division down from Sergio. Martinez needs to fight Pac or Floyd; I DON'T CARE WHO! Floyd and Pac can make the fight at JMW. Sergio will take the fight if the money is right...
Martinez is a real 154 pounder, not one of these fake 154 guys like Marg who had never even won a real fight there. He's a big guy, but most importantly, he's a big, actually decently skilled new champion. Even if it were to be looked at as a reality, Martinez is a counter puncher (and a strong powerful one at that), southpaw himself, good boxer and well skilled in his best wins. The fight would never be made by Pac's people. They know who to go for.
They might even go for Williams now.
He is referring to weight mainly. Pac could not even make the 151 catchweight against Margs how the hell would he make 158 or 160 to fight Martinez? All I know is that now people can see what Martinez is capable of......I knew when I first saw dude fight that he was gonna do great things. You can't be that good and that confident and not succeed and his stretch of opponents has been nothing short of supremely impressive.
It was a great fight... but I kind of felt sorry for Paul. He got clocked BAAAAAD. Like .357 MAG in the skull.
I agree, that sh!t was reminiscent of Lewis KO win over Rahman in their second outing.
It sound liked Rahman got shot with a high powered rifle…
Pac is to small. Pac belongs at 140, he is a small fighter at 147. Martinez belongs at 160 at this point in his career. If Roach where hellbent on it another catch weight fight could be made but sergio dosen't want to go below 156 and it really really unlikely that Pac will go that high, he cant even make 150. Pac should fight small 154 fighters or go back down to 140-147 which i think is the better option.
Sorry, but Pacquiao is a true now.

And he will not get it! floyd is on vacation! LOL :moon:
He's not talking about just height. Martinez is a much, much bigger guy than Pac. Martinez apparently feels he would struggle to even make 154, and on fight night probably hits 170 or more. Just a ridiculous size advantage especially considering Martinez's style.
