Would you bash Floyd if he decided to fight Martinez for the belts at a 158 catch?

    160 or no titles..if he wants to come in under 160 fine..but dont change the rules of a weight limit for the other fighter...middleweight is 155-160..not 155-158

            Martinez is a big JMW who has fought at MW before. Floyd is a WW who can still easily make WW and has never fought at MW before big difference.

              I don't understand you people that are voting yes.

              Why the **** are we making exceptions for select fighters? Lets just do away w/ the damn weight classes altogether if you're gonna allow a select few to come in at their own weight class.


              160 or no titles mother****ers.

                Martinez is a big Welterweight that comfortably fights at his right weight which is JMW. Stop smearing crap.

                  I don't see why Floyd and Martinez couldn't fight at 154 for both of Martinez's titles.

                    I know. He was allowed to weigh 145, which is within the WW limit.

                    No there isn't. If both guys agree, then it's a fight. Period.

                      I believe he was 158-159lbs for the Williams fight at MW.
                      It's the thought of restricting the champion from coming in at the limit of the division he campaigns at. I see alot wrong with that.
