    I thought you knew, Martinez is a fighter and wants to EARN the belt the right way, by beating the champ!

      I mean... he might want to earn something, but I doubt earning the belt the right way is at the forefront of his mind... he's probably more worried about earning some grip to clock. Nahmean?

        I feel you, but how much $$ does Forrest really bring to the table? I honestly dont think that much....

          He's probably the biggest draw at 154... It's a financially weak division.

          Santos - Boring, no name.
          Dzinziruk - No name.
          Spinks - BORING AS ****.
          De La Hoya - Retired.
          Kirkland - Still fairly no name, not going to fight Martinez.
          Angulo - Still fairly no name, not going to fight Martinez.

          Forrest is a well established, American champion, who beat Mosley twice. He's the biggest draw in the division probably, and Martinez is the mandatory, so he feels he is entitled to fight him.

            Since Forrest will most likely fight AA Mratinez should fight Santos the guy who pulled out of Feb.14th fight and go after his belt or Dziniziruk

              I hope you're not that ******.
              Forrest would lose to both of them but he stands to gain much more in defeat against Abraham than he does against Martinez and actually stylistically, Martinez would probably have given Forrest more trouble.

                AA picking on a 154 fighter didn't he lose to Mora

                  Forrest won't fight overseas, this fight is meant to give Abraham exposure in the US for a final showdown with Pavlik at the end of the year or beginning of 2010. Peace!
