Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez-Paul Williams Deal Reached, Presser Set

[Sweet Jesus]

You really will go to any lengths to justify what Williams does.

It was strategy to get outboxed for 4 rounds and do the Stanky Leg. All part of Williams master plan...lol

To be fair, it WAS Sergio Martinez's strategy to let Pavlik pound on him for 4 rounds because he needed the rest to finish the fight strong.

At no point did Pavlik "pound on" Martinez.

Martinez went down on a punch.


Whether he was off balance or not, it's a legitimate KD.


Shush.

Pavlik won some of the middle rounds but "pounding on" Martinez...lol oh my bad I didnt know you were a crackhead.

It was a legitimate KD. There are countless instances of an unbalanced fighter going down on a punch that are considered perfectly legitimate KD's, and that was just one more.

I have no problem conceding Martinez scored the nicer (heavier) KD. Regardless, Paul's KD of Martinez was legit.



And, apropos of your discussion with the other poster, there were a cluster of rounds before the Championship stretch where Pavlik was landing leather on Martinez and had it looking as though the fight could swing his way.

He also said Williams "barely landed a glove on Martinez".

Im convinced he didnt watch either fight.

Yes pounding. That is what you do with your fists in boxing. Particularly when the other fighter decides to completely abandon their offense for 4 rounds. You think Pavlik was slapping in that fight?

The punch grazed Martinez on the shoulder and on top of the head.

Pavlik was timing him with the jab and was landing an occasional right hand. We must have different definitions of "pounding on". Pavlik got pounded on in that 9th round.
