Nobody is ducking Pirog. Pirog just refuses to fight any name fighter. He is so over rated
lol He tried to fight Martinez, Barker, N'jikam, Geale, and Golovkin but they wouldn't fight him or they fell apart for reasons beyond his control like Barker getting injured or the WBO threatening to strip him if he unified with Geale which caused Geale to back out.
Pirog's career demonstrates everything that is wrong with politics in boxing.
I dont understand why Sergio didnt just fight Pirog. He would easily KO him for easy money
It would be like Paulie-Senshenko but with a brutal KO
Martinez obviously doesn't share your absurd and unsubstantiated opinion. Sergio has even and competitive fights with Barker and Macklin but he would outclass Pirog. Great logic.
Macklin who is a pressure fighter completely changes up his style and does his best impression of a boxer and gets the better of things through the first 8 rounds.
Floyd is a 147 pounder who MOVED up to fight COTTO and ODH. 2 of the biggest draws in boxing. You think thats by accident?
Martinez is a 160 pounder moving down. If he cant get fights with May, Cotto or Canelo. Doesnt he have almost no choice but to fight GGG who outside of Martinez is the hottest MW who already called him out?
He cant fight Junior after trying to pick on JMWs. No way. If he wants Junior fine fight him now. But dont beg the little guys to fight you then run into the arms of Bob Arum when GGG and Pirog are sitting there.
He would look like a fairy.
I already said I expect Sergio to fight Pirog or Golovkin if he doesn't get those fights. See my standards don't change for certain fighters like yours.
I don't see why people think Macklin was such a bad fight......he beat Sturm in his last fight before Sergio, and was the #3 ranked MW. Macklin was a solid fight, Barker was the fight I had a problem with.

Martinez is a 154 and 160 pound fighter. He's said numerous times that he's on diet that allows him to fight at 154 or 160.
But carry on and continue to be bitter Burner...
Didnt someone already explain to you that Floyd is 147 Pounder who only fights at 154 for if its a big star with drawing power.
Now objectively speaking is that Sergio man. I mean cmon. Enough already.
Uhh... Yeah...???
Floyd vs Martinez would be HUGE!!! It may not be his biggest pay day ever, but its his only huge pay day other than a cheap one with Canelo (the more likely to happen fight)

GGG, Pirog, and Gaele are all good fighters, but why would Martinez want to fight any of them for 10% of what he could make vs Floyd, Pac, or Cotto or about half of what he could get for a Chavez Jr rematch?
:boxing::boxing:
Because he's almost 40, and rematching Chavez or moving down and getting Cotto or Canelo make him a bundle more $$$$$$. He's not ducking anyone, he's just doing his job (as a PRIZEfighter) and chasing the money.
who cares man floyd would handle martinez with ease , martinez is open for straight rights all night
but i still find it funny this full blown MW coming down to pick on WWs lmao
whose alt are you?
So its ok for Floyd to cherry pick "big stars with drawing power" but not Martinez?

they offered him 3 mil to fight in russia but he turned it down from what i remeber..so i guess, sergio thinks he's too much of a risk not worth taking even for so much money

Sooooo you admit he's ducking Sergio at 154 for "big stars" at 154
