    Burner I know you're not a Martinez fan, me either. I think he's a bit overrated TBH. But Angulo is wrong for claiming to fight anybody then turning down a good pay check and a chance to be champ at 160 without even fighting at 160, basically like Pacquiao-Margarito fighting at Jr Jr Middleweight for the vacant Jr Middleweight WBC title.
    Wayyyyyyyyyyy overrated. This dude made a living feasting off one style of fighter.

    I think its bull**** how Pac gets killed for fighting the same style of fighter. Yet Martinez gets a free pass.

    Williams
    Cintron
    Pavlik
    Angulo

    I sense a pattern there. I want to see him vs. a Mayweather or Collazo, or a Dzinziruk. A guy that can move and box. Not these brawlers all the time.

        Martinez vs Sturm would be interesting.

          that would be a bad fight for Angulo
          smart move
          he isnt ducking just being smart
          he loses to sergio then he is back on FNF
          besides he wont get all that money so why do it

            Rematch one: Williams offered him more money than Martinez wouldve made vs. Pavlik he chose Pavlik. Not knocking him for going after the belts but people act like Paul is afraid of him.

            Rematch 2: Williams and Goosen again offer him the fight. Martinez still on cloud nine from Floyd mentioning him turned down Paul...again.

            Dzizniruk: Said he wants to fight Martinez. Martinez says "Sergiy who?".

            Martinez fans act like it never happened.
            Where you gettin this bull****? How do you make more money fighting Paul Williams than Pavlik? LOL....Williams priced himself out of the Pavlik fight so Martinez stepped in his place, stepped on Pavlik and stole Williams' thunder...

            Now Paul Williams wants to move to welterweight or get more than 50% of the cut to rematch Martinez. In other words....he dont want none. Stop fabricating sh-it

                It doesn't really matter about notable when you have HBO paying an opponent $750K.

                What notable opponent will he make that against?

                Williams maybe... Pavlik maybe... Martinez is willing to go down to 155, but Shaw never wanted any. It was always a dog and pony show, he knows what's up.

                  Burns you are truly losing it
                  williams style is a lot different than angulos
                  at least cintron and williams have decent speed and pwill has freakish reach

                  packy gets all the advantages and fights the same style over and over

                    Maybe Angulo is thinking long term if he loses again like another poster mentioned earlier it will lead to fights on espn but if he continues to fight guys whose styles he can exploit a larger payday will eventually come. My only problem with that is why say you are ready to fight anyone and act like you are this fearless champion when in reality your not
