    I think floyd would start to pick Martinez apart late... I would always pick a polished skilled fighter over an unorthodox awkward fighter even in this case. Its a big difference fighting a world class skilled fighter than fighting cats like pavlik... just my take.

      I have it mid rounds; that's when Floyd has his foot to the gas pedal the hardest. Martinez has a tendency to fade out and rest in the middle rounds.

      Martinez is a southpaw who fights with his hands down and doesn't have the best balance. Floyd throws the best lead right hand right now and his timing is unmatched.

        I think Williams has the best chance against him, though I favor Martinez against him at MW as well. Floyd will fight neither.

          Williams would look dumb and lost for all twelve as Floyd plays slickster.

            After watching what Martinez did to him and Cintron did before jumping out the ring. I find it alot harder for PWill to beat Floyd.

                I agree, sergio has the weight advantage, has good stamina, speed, footwork, but even with that we know floyd will come prepared and not half assed and not to lose, i see floyd winning a close but distant decision lol

                  Martinez has good movement, but Floyd's is a class above him. And Martinez got hit rather easily by Williams. Even Pavlik as big and slow as he was that night was able to tag Martinez a few times. Floyd is no Pavlik or Williams. He may have a little trouble first few rounds (Floyd's a slow starter), but I see Floyd coasting to a comfortable decision, but not a total blow out. Maybe 116-112 score.
