Iran Barkley would destroy Martinez.

lol Barkley is tailor made for Sergio. Out of any style Barkley's would be the easiest for Sergio to beat. Sergio would KO him in less than 6 rounds.

Sergio is being overrated here, or The Blade being underrated. Sergio isn't the master in-fighter/counter-puncher that Toney was, a big bomber like Benn, nor is he nearly as skilled and crafty as Kalambay or Duran (even an old one). Barkley gave Nunn, another quick left hander, and superior fighter to Martinez, absolute hell. Barkley fought a solid list of middleweights and rarely did anyone blow him out, other than the monster-punching Benn. Martinez doesn't either.

Martinez is not exactly a defensive wizard. He is pretty much easy to hit. Barkley goes inside the pocket and starts to show impose his will using his power. Anybody here thinks Martinez has the power to keep Barkley off him?

ummm sergio would put a clinic on barkley. I would be surprised if barkley won one round tbh

Martinez is far from unbeatable but you're being silly with saying Iran Barkley would beat him atleast mention someone like Erislandy Lara, Macklin got beat off Martinez but he did show that Martinez was beatable with the right gameplan the sorta gameplan I think Mayweather would find easy to use another reason why I think Mayweathers next fight will be with him assuming he beats Cotto. Agreed with most. Not confident with the Lara comment though lol. Mayweather would probably just use a different game plan. He's so accurate that there's no telling how the fight would go on, because Martinez has immense respect for his skills. I seriously doubt he'd have his hands down as much. I like that fight because I can see it going different ways. Floyd pot shotting and avoiding the big shots..Martinez being very agressive and not waiting, Floyd stalking...etc etc. Both guys can do what they want (Especially floyd) that I'd be interested to see who can implement their game plan and if the slight size advantage WOULD make a difference, especially considering that an advantage, however slight CAN make a difference when coupled with other exceptional attributes. You can guarantee Martinez wouldn't show up to how he did against Macklin though. I'd favor Floyd, depending on how he does against cotto (who I expect he TKOs later on in the fight) though. Just off sheer pedigree, Floyd should be favored. He's the better fighter, flat out. But Martinez is something of a wild card.

No way!!! UD for Martinez!

Love the Blade, but he'd struggle to win a round against Sergio. He's made to order.

Barkley was really just a journeyman who lost all his biggest fights bar 1 Hearns , even Duran who was no MW out boxed Iran , put it this way if Tosca Petridis can UD him , Sergio would win by a wide margin , I think Iran would lose every round to SM and only have a punches chance , the thing with SM is when you have guys that a very slick you can only beat them by a lucky punch or they get tired and you run over them in the late rounds , but the ones that dont get tired are extremely hard to beat , Iran was a tough guy that lacked that bit extra to be elite I cant see him beating SM .

probably not...

Cmon, state your points....... Im willing to listen with an open mind.

probably not...
