      If he can afford Martinez he must be making some serious money.

      Maybe this is one step too far for Manny, but maybe he'll do it yet again. I know Margarito doesn't deserve this fight and it certainly shouldn't be for a 154 belt but it could be really entertaining.

        Excellent choice.

        I never even thought about Martinez tbh, but he is an excellent choice.

        Like already said.

          It's great that he is sparring with Martinez and all but really.........Martinez is far taller, has a longer reach, and fights completely different than Pac does. How is this supposed to help him fight Pac again? I realize the southpaw aspect but other than that, I fail to realize the advantage.

            That's really ****** and I don't like it. My opinion on Margarito aside, Martinez/Margarito II would be an amazing fight!

            If Martinez spanks Margarito (or the other way around) chances of a fight between them plummet.

            I realize great southpaw sparring partners are hard to find, but isnt Martinez and bit tall and defense-y to be effective?

              The thing is.....who does fight like Manny? I think Sergio is as close as it's gonna get. At least he's an elite fighter who's a southpaw, with a good bit of movement.

                He's a southpaw. Check.

                Moves side to side and uses awkward angles. Check.

                He's darts in and out. Check.

                He's got speed. Check.

                He punches in combo's. Check.

                Outside of the superficial differences you mentioned, it don't get much better than Sexy imo.

                If anything its even better cuz' he'll be used to a bigger guy with a bigger punch so Pac will seem diminutive by comparison.
