He says a Martinez fight would be at a catchweight. I doubt they actually fight, but doesn't it seem very contradictory of Floyd being he's so against catchweights to even mention it?

I think the stakes are an issue too. Manny won a welterweight title at a 145 catchweight and a super welterweight title. at a 150 pound catchweight. He could put his 154 title on the line at a catchweight of 156-158 to make sure Sergio is at a weight he can perform at. That's a catchweight that favors Martinez. Its just not enough in the interview to attack him just yet.
wrong Pacq was 147 on fight night
Saying and doing is different , Manny does it Floyd says he might , if Floyd fights SM I want it at MW and if its not I will not approve , thats not bias thats being real about it .
wow well known *****s getting owned in this thread! LOL
for the record, Im not one of those guys who rip Pac non stop. Im not against all CW fights. I think you have to judge them all on an individual basis. You cant group them all in a box. Every case is different. Some are legit and some are jokes
This........
The way I remember the Oscar vs. Pac fight it was Oscar's idea to fight Pac at 147 which is the welterweight limit, not a catchweight. At the time Pacquiao was #1 pfp. and Oscar thought he would become #1 pfp. if he beat Pac at 147. At the time Oscar was on no one's pfp list, and he thought this was a shortcut to the #1 pfp. spot. He thought he could make 147 no problem. The whole fight at 147 was Oscar's idea , not Pac's. Pacquiao just said yes to a big money fight yet everybody blames Pac when Oscar set the terms the way he wanted. Oscar was drained partly because he got his weight below 147 weeks before the fight instead of just weighing in dry and rehydrating after the weigh-in the way most fighters do.
YOU NOT VERY BRIGHT R U MARTINEZ IS WANTING MAYWEATHER SO HE MADE THE WEIGHT UP HIS SELF NOT FLOYD, FLOYD WOULD BE GOOD AT 154 AGAINST HIM MAYBE EVEN 160 UNLIKE PAC THAT ONLY WANTED 147 THATS THE DRAIN KING AND ON THE LEFT OVER COMMENT 147 COTTO VS A 154 COTTO WHO WINS ENOUGH SAID "gapo"
And mayweather never fought at a catchweight right?

The only people who think Floyd is boring are those who don't know what they're watching. They're more suited for UFC.
He talk smack in building a fight. Then we get that kind of performance.
I am now loving UFC. They'll do what they say prior to their fight most of the time.
Whose the #1 guy ranked at 154 right now?
Just now ain't it? this cotto fight should have happened 4/5 years ago. I wonder what happened why fight now?
I never b*tched Pac's CW's, with the exception of the Oscar one, because Oscar hadn't fought that low in 8-9 years. That was a worthless fight, can't knock Pac for doing it though because it made him a mega-star.
Sergio has beein fighting at 157-158. If he were to go down to 154, which he and everyone says is his natural weight class, that's not bad. If Floyd were to make him go down any lower than 154, than the fight loses it's luster for sure by a big margin. I doubt Floyd, if they fight, would do that. If it was anywhere from 154-160, it's gotta be a huge fight.
But if what you're saying is your stance, than you can't say Floyd is ducking Sergio, because it seems like you wouldn't give him credit for fighting him at 154 anyway. So how can he be ducking him like everyone else claims??? There's no point for him to fight him at 154 if you guys are just going to use that as an excuse to why he won or something.
That is bad. Sergio fights at 160 even when he comes in a pound or 2 lower than that at fight night. His contracted fights were at 160 against everbody for the last 4 years. Its like saying margarito whom spent most of his fights at 147 and lost to pacquiao at 150 was a bad fight for margarito. Delahoya had morethan 12 fights at welter weights and it surely affected him trying to make weight against pacquiao. I say if floyd had to fight martines, it should be at 160. Then its not a catchweight. If sergio decides to fight floyd at 154 and then loses, then he (martines) and his fans should not be crying like babies.

Theres a diffirences between wanting and if his willing. They asked him if he would fight Sergio at 150. Thats not the same as him requesting it. Get your ***** straight.
Pac can beat Martinez at 154, 155, 156......Floyds just waiting for Martinez to slow down. The big guys Martinez has fought, Floyd would never fight them. Even if "you" say they suck, floyd wouldn't put himself in that danger against the last 2 determined fighters Martinez fought.
So now Floyd's being criticized for not jumping 2 weight classes to 160 to fight Matthew Macklin and Darren Barker?
Lol..just when you think you've heard it all
