      He wanted a paper belt at 154 so why didn't he go after the best guy? Why did he go after the most least deserving guy.

      #1. Because Margarito is a Top Rank fighter. (Main reason)
      #2. Because Margo's name is more well known to the Hispanic audience.
      #3. Because Margo beat Martinez?

      He may have not been the best dude, but he was the WBC #1 ranked fighter who commanded the most money out of all the best dudes.

        Martinez was stripped of the WBC title at 154 because he wanted to stay champ at 160.

        And Martinez is not an Arum promoted fighter. Arum would have pushed this fight hard if Serg was one of his boys.

            Martinez lives in Argentina.
            He ain't a PPV attraction.
            He's not a big name.

            Actually Martinez never called out Pac. Pac has no reason to fight Sergio.


            Why did Floyd fight Gatti and not Kosta Tszyu at 140? Why did Floyd fought ****ty Baldomir and Hatton at 147. He should have fought the toughest opponents: Cotto and Margarito.

              Pretty much. Why fight Corey Spinks or Verno Phillips when you can fight the cash cow Oscar?

                  To be honest, i have to admit that Pacquiao's team is handpicking beatable opponents. Sergio ain't one of them. I don't think Pac or Floyd would fight Martinez. I agree with them. They're too small.

                      And the taxes now in place. We are talking 2011 expired Bus era tax cuts kinda taxing.
