    Key word, "little." From what I understand Sergio isn't even that big in his own country of Argentina, at least not before the Pavlik fight anyway. So I'd find it hard to believe that he has any sort of following here in the US. If Paul Williams barely has a following here, then Sergio definitely doesn't have one.

    And no, this fight isn't doing 1 million. I'd be willing to bet on that. If the most heavily promoted fight (PBF vs Shane) did only 1.2-1.4 million, this fight definitely ain't doing 1 million.

      lol read my mind.

      This fight wouldn't be at 160 though.
      Sergio hasn't been stripped of his 154 belt yet,
      so it could be at 154. I don't think floyd would venture as high as 160.

        Why am I reading that Sergio has stamina problems? How, and when?

        His first trip ever to 160 he fought a man who made him "fight" and dodge 1k punches.

        His SECOND trip to 160 he fought a man who was so much bigger than him he had to keep moving and never sit still, in and out, whilst throwing punches.

        These are his 2 fights at 160. An arguement can be made that he wouldn't have gotten tired at all against these styles at 154, but we'll stick to who he fought before we start juding his stamina.

        You think floyd is going to threaten margi with his size and volume? Enough that he gets fatigued from dodging and moving all night?


        Get real.

          They could have it at, what was it Hopkins fought DLH? 156 I think?

          Yeah everyone that fights Paul Williams looks like they have bad stamina in comparison.

              this would be a pretty big fight especially if they can't make the fight with Manny happen, Boxing Fans are already buzzing about this fight and rightfully so I would love to see Mayweather vs Martinez

                Don't be too baffled. The same guy who said Sergio had bad stamina also tabbed Paul Williams as a "slugger."

                  same reason why fighters calling out manny and willing to go through without the testing.

                  its all about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
                  Do you not realize how ****** you sound??? He's in no position to refuse? Possibly because he's clean and not using maybe. Here's the thing you're neglecting. If any other fighter other than Floyd were to ask Pac to take the test he'd still refuse. I see your point as far as Pac's status but it makes him look dirty still the same.

                    LOL, I love it.

                    PROPS to Martinez for being willing to take the tests!
