      Ok, you're saying that Sergio Martinez, who is known as a good, slick defensive fighter *1, good counterpuncher as you said 2*, and who showed he can mix it up with combinations and explosive offense *3, isn't well rounded?

      *1. good defense
      *2. counterpuncher
      *3. good offense.

      Explain how he isn't a well rounded fighter? What would you need him to do for him to convince you?
      I can name alot fighters who can do a lil bit of this, a lil bit of that, but they're not great!!

      Sergio for the most part is a slick/counter-puncher. His offense is his counter-punching!!

            Martinez is definately a highly skilled fighter, he overcame Williams huge output, reach, jab and height to make it a war and he fought HIS fight for most of the fight.

            Kellerman is right, it was a fight between two highly skilled fighters.

              Then why is he "highly" sucessful? And don't use height or reach beacuse for the most part Williams doesn't use it.

                Name all the fighters at 154 and 160 as good as Martinez. Make sure it's "a lot" too.
