Comments Thread For: Martinez Rematch Downed, Margarito on Hold For Pacquiao

[Sugar Q]

Top Rank needs to stop frontin they know they have no intentions on fighting Floyd. Pac vs Cheato "The Cheaterfest" is coming in Nov. I don't blame Sergio for overlooking Paul, there's no money in fighting PWillz. He'd get more for a Winky fight I would say but we'll see. Hopefully Floyd will fight Sergio and flip the whole boxing world topsy turvy.

Is it time to start questioning Sergio Martinez' level of commitment and dedication to the sport now? How can he not rematch immediately with Paul Williams and prefer a fight with Margarito; Who skills which may very well be on the decline since their first meeting?

He has pushed a rematch with Paul Williams last on his priorities list. It gives the perception that he may be even ducking Williams by calling out first a limited Pavlik, then second a damaged Margarito and now a smaller Mayweather.

My question is, what exactly has Margarito done lately, to warrant such a fight with Martinez that Paul Williams hasn't done?

He's 35 years old you idiot. He's Middleweight champion of the world, came up the hard way. He had to move to spain to make a career for himself and a silly little boy has the nerve to question his level of commitment and dedication! L.M.F.A.O

Then why don't he just give boxing fans the fight that they want to see; The rematch with Paul Williams?

so much for "Margarito's never getting another big fight" after the plaster incident

You didn't really believe that, did you?

[mathed]

Margarito don't want any. My boy is getting ducked by everyone........they are trying to make Pac-Floyd, if that falls through, Margs-Pac......sounds like they are already planning on a Margs-Pac fight to me.

That leaves Floyd-Martinez.....let's get it on Floyd, Martinez will take your tests man......where you at b?

LOL, Paul had the chance but chose to fight Cintron, Pavlik had the chance but chose to move up to 168, Margs has the opportunity but chose to hold out for Pac, I think it is the other guys that aren't giving the boxing fans the fights they want to see.

Did you not see the fight? Nobody was there. It was embarrassing. It was empty. If you followed your fighter a bit better, you would know that Martinez said his 3 choices of future opponent, in order, were: Floyd, Margarito then Williams. Top rank today notified Lou di Bella that they are currently not interested because they are waiting to see what happens with the Pac fight. That leaves floyd, then williams. If floyd fights Manny then Marg's back in the frame followed by williams. Regardless im sure he has more than 2/3 fights left, meaning he will re-match williams sooner or later. It might just not be his next fight. After his last performance he has some momentum/leverage when negotiating for a mega fight, something he has worked his whole carer towards. Face the facts williams dont sell tickets. Be patient - stop hating.

I thought Winky Wright was gonna sign with Top Rank. And Martinez-Wright doesn't sound like a very intriguing fight to me. But if Winky some how pulls off the upset are people finally gonna give some credit to Paul Williams for beating Winky?

I used to be totally against a Margarito-Pac fight. But now I don't mind it that much for some reason. I'm still mad at Pac for ducking Floyd though. The fight I want to see the least is a Pac-Cotto rematch which Arum says is a possibility. What's the point in that?

[Championart]

Arum is a scumbag and he never intended on going through with a Pac vs Mayweather fight. Back in February Margorito stated that Arum promised him a fight with Pac after the Clottey fight. This was Arums plan all along and this has nothing to do with Mayweather and random drug tests. I hope Margorito never gets his license back in the US as long as he's boxing.

Bob the scumbag Arum killing boxing one fight at a time.
