    Sergio Martinez is really Overrated

    i mean what has the guy done? draw with cintron? close loss to williams? stopped by margarito?

    who has the guy beat? some of you are really overrating him. let him beat someone in the top 10 then we can talk about it..

    he will get ko'd by kelly pavlik if not get up in a 12 round decision

    the guy is simply not as good as hes made out to be..the funny thing is i dont consider williams, margarito or cintron "elite level skilled" fighters...nor pavlik.

    cintron, pavlik and margarito arent that skilled period

    williams just throws 1000s of punches using his height and reach while getting countered to death everytime, quintana already countered him before martinez.

        I was thinking the same thing. Don't worry this hype will end when Pavlik destroys him. If anyone fancies Maravilla message me for a bet.

            Guys gets robbed everytime, he beat Cintron no doubt, KO'd him so bad cintron thought he got headbutted.

            and i had him winning 1 point over williams, or a draw.

              While the TS is clueless, I do find it funny that Martinez was still fighting tomato can bums as many as 5 fights ago.

              Then again I think that's a testament to his progression, he's come a long way in a short time.

              I'm just hoping for a slugfest.

                Martinez is not a big name with a resume full of stars he destroyed. But he is very skilled and a technical boxer who's fun to watch. Many posters on this forum likely knew nothing of him other than the fights mentioned in the OP. He hasn't beaten a lot of recognizable names, but Martinez is the truth. The Williams fight earned him higher acclaim than he'd been getting here previously but if you've seen him in other fights you know he's a threat. I see him as the best man at 154, and pick him to beat Pavlik at MW.

                  sure u do that plaster of paris fan..we will see, i dont think sergio lasts 8 rounds in pavliks world, and even if he does he takes a beating.

                    isnt your level of skill judged by who you beat? i havent seen martinez beat a top 10 fighter yet everyone overrates the dude
