Sergio Martinez: "Pacquiao is too small, it's a mismatch"

By Lem Satterfield WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez shocked the entire boxing world at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. In a rematch of last December's "fight of the year" candidate, Martinez used a single left hook to knock Paul Williams out cold in the second round. A crowd of 5,502 were left stunned at the New Jersey venue. Following the win, the attention quickly turned to Martinez possibly facing the two top fighters in the world - Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Martinez doesn't see a Pacquiao fight ever happening. He considers the fight a mismatch because of the size difference. But, he thinks a fight with Mayweather is a possibility for the future. "Manny Pacquiao is too small. It would be a mismatch. I don't believe that it will ever happen," said Martinez. "But Floyd Mayweather? Most likely, that would be a fight that we could make. He's a great fighter, and I would love to do it." Martinez's manager, Sampson Lewkowicz, went even further. "Sergio would never fight Manny Pacquiao," said Lewkowicz, "because would knock him out."
