    Martinez is no slouch, a win for Paul here will be his toughest fight

It was a bull**** arguement for the Mayweather-Hatton fight and it is a bull**** arguement now, they are the same men and they are of similar size so it really does not play that big of a role. The only thing different is that a trinket is not on the line, fighters make the titles not the other way around.


      In the old days anything over 147 would be a middleweight fight, so it is just like teh old days to smaller guys fighting at 160 it should not be a big deal at all.
      No I am not acting like Williams has been a MW his whole career. My first post in this thread was that Martinez is the best opponent for P-Will from 154-160. But, they both are top 10 JMW are they not? So it means more at 154 IMO...

      Out of all the examples I gave. You only aknowledged Hatton-Floyd. So that means you are a Floyd fan. And, I probably offended you with that comparison. So I will leave it that. Cuz IMO Floyd is not relevant.

      So loot at Juanma-Caballero. Both more than likely will be the same men in the ring at 126. But, where does that mean more at, where would be the better fight at, where would you rather watched them fight at 122 or 126? In the old days anything over 118 would be a featherweight fight. But, in this day and age where would that fight have more meaning 122 or 126?

      I am not dissing P-Will at all. I like Williams I have defended Williams on here passed. I am just saying it matters more it has more meaning at 154.

        I don't care that much about Juan Ma-Caballero because that fight is not in the cards. The whole thing about Pac-Cotto is that Cotto is clearly a bigger man, to me Pac is the greater fighter so it is kind of a toss up because Cotto is clearly bigger.

        Hatton-Floyd is the only one that was similar that I cared about and people make that arguement all the time, and I say that is a bull**** all the time so I am staying consistent on the matter. I felt that Floyd and Hatton are similar sized men so where the fight took place is not that much of a deal, same thing with this fight I feel Martinez and Williams are similar sized men.

        Where they fight at does not play that much of a role because I want to know who the the better man between them if they fight at 147, 154, 160, 168, 175, 200+ because I don't think it matter that much because they are similar sized.


        Also Floyd is relevent, he is one of the tops dogs in the sport no matter what anyone says; no matter if he plays grab ass or fights the guys people want him to fight. It will change if he messes around for to long but for right now he is relevent for the forseeable future.
