Final Predictions: Williams-Martinez, Part Deux

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Fight of the Year and the two best fighters from 154-160. Just watched the first fight and it was brutal. Both fighters were badly hurt at one point or another and both fighters took turns outboxing the other. Who wins Saturday night?

I dont see where Williams "outboxed" Martinez. Williams "outworked" him in some rounds but for the most part, he was the one being schooled.

I saw parts, certainly. Particularly in the middle rounds, when he found his groove. Much better footwork, head movement and his most important weapon, the jab. Landed some beautiful hooks--hooking off Martinez' hook--and some lefts over that punch as well. In fact, it took Sergio a couple rounds to adjust.

[Reggie Miller]

Martinez can turn it up this time and go for a TKO.

Pauls way too easy to hit and Martinez will not want it to go to the scorecards again with the close decision in the first fight.

Its all about how Martinez deals with the weight.

sergio wasn't all that hard for paul to find either.

True, guess what I meant was Paul has been taking alot of punishment in recent fights as opposed to Sergio.

Hes almost a punching bag at times.





Lovin the avi BTW.

Williams UD. Williams is seriously being underestimated in this fight by a lot of people who seem to incorrectly believe Martinez had an unscathed easy time the last fight. Both fighters had a full training camp(for each other) for this fight so there should be no excuses from either side.

[Uturn]

If Martinez makes weight without any problems then he wins a decision

I hope Paul is put to bed for once and for all, he is a horrible fighter, should I say 'Freakshow'. Nothing against Paul, he's a nice guy, but he is very ordinary, he needs to be took down a notch.

Yeah, that's what I don't get. Like...umm, did you see the last fight? Both of them were in deep water! That was a rough fight. Martinez didn't outbox anybody easily when they met last year. ****, his face was pretty lumped up at the end. I can see Martinez hurting PW with one shot and going for the kill. But if he can't do that, I think he's in for a long night.

Martinez by decision. I think it will be a great fight like their first one but Sergio takes it this time.
P-will hasn't looked that great in his last fights. He was having a hard time outboxing Kermit, and if he plans to pressure throwing nonstop punches I think Sergio is to quick for him to land consistently.
Don't get me wrong, it's not going to be a shutout, both guys will eat punches, but I feel P-will be the worst off at the end of the fight.
