Why does Martinez only want to fight one style of fighter?

See I cant get down with this line of thinking.My goodness Burner, how do you not get this? It's quite simple.
Dzinziruk brings less money than everyone else in or around the division. He's also the only pure boxer in or around Martinez's division.
So the reason Martinez is not fighting a boxer is because the only boxer he would fight brings him the least amount of money. Sergei's only American TV exposure has come on Shobox.
When DiBella gives Ross Greenburg the names....Angulo, Williams, Cotto, Dzinzurik, who you think Greenburg puts the least money up for?
And that is why. For you to be giving Martinez **** for this is just ******ed and it's clear that it has nothing to do with anything but your personal vendetta with Martinez.
How much money was Martinez worth and bringing in when Pavlik gave him a shot at the Lineal Middleweight crown?Comment

The Razor had a date for October since the summer. Martinez was asked to fill it he declined.
Since hes fighting Collazo there is a 99.99999999999% chance we'll see Williams vs. Martinez 2. A fight as a Paul fan I dont mind. But as a boxing fan its bull**** that this guy sidesteps guys with a certain style and is jumping at the bit to fight the same type of guy.Comment

More than Sergei.
Martinez was coming off HBO appearances against Bunema, Cintron, and a FOTY candidate with Williams that a lot of people thought he won.
Martinez was a very viable opponent and a hot commodity that a lot of people fell in love with in the Williams fight. Sergei has never really fought anyone, and has little to no American TV exposure.
You gotta get down with this line of thinking because it's logical.Comment

Ah poor baby got his feeling hurt! Maybe if you didn't post ridiculous threads I wouldn't have to remind how dilusional they are.
And good job completely avoiding my observations that you obviously have no argument against.Comment

No Ceilings you really think anyone even cares about Martinez fighting some easternblock fighter with zero fan base here in the states. 35 year's old and still fighting nobodies for no money. Yeah Im sure thats what every 35 year old MW champ invisioned to happen in their career.Comment

Look at Dawson, Berto and Williams. HBO appearances don't make you a draw or a star. The fact is that Pavlik went out of his way to give an unknown fighter with a tricky style a shot at his belts.
Now Martinez is sitting with feet up dissing the longest reigning champ of his former division like hes a nobody then going after face first guys like Angulo.
That doesnt sit well with me. You got a guy like Paul Williams who could st back and face Angulo and Marg types all day and outwork them to a 8-4 UD. But what does he do instead he doesnt mind fighting a Martinez, doesnt mind fighting a Quintana twice, doesnt mind fighting Sergiy. Guys who are all left handed with the style to give him trouble.
When will Martinez step out of his comfort zone and fight in a scrap where the style clash isnt heavily leaning in his favor.Comment

So now instead of fans were managers now?
Goodness. This site is so hypocritical. Now instead of a challenge people are looking out for Sergios pockets?
But If Paul tries to go after a Mayweather or a Pacquio for some cash hes a bitch?
NSB at its finest. Place aint changed a bit since 2005.Comment

Honestly I saw nothing wrong with what pistolwhip said.
Burner how can you expect to have a serious boxing discussion when you start a thread like this.
I mean you have to know how ridiculous it is to say all of those guys fight a like and accuse Sergio of cherry picking?
Dawg you get what you give out. If you start b.s. topics don't expect to get serious replies. To be honest, no one even ripped you for this, and actually tried to explain to you why your statements were wrong.Comment
