Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Manny Pacquiao Would Beat Sergio Martinez

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Top Rank CEO Bob Arum, who promotes Manny Pacquiao, is not going to entertain a fight with WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez. Arum doesn't think it's fair to continue matching Pacquiao against fighters who have a significant size advantage. Pacquiao weighed 146.5-pounds for his recent one-sided blowout of Antonio Margarito.

Only if he drains him

and Martinez ain't having it..I hope.

no way Martinez can get below 150 like Pacquiao insists..and anything over 154 makes Martinez insanely too big..and walks through Pac's punches and works lil Pac over..

Pacquiao should fight Bradley, Berto and Mayweather and finally retire as a top 5 ATG!

at 147...at 154 (which is the title Pac just "won") Martinez would probably left hook pacquio into the stands lmao.

Manny should fight his own size.. Berto or Bradley/Devon... no MOSLEY PLEASE!!

i think martinez is fast enough, and most certainly has the power to beat pacquiao. martinez is slick and always in great condition.

the only edge pacquiao would have on him would be from a catchweight to where martinez was weight drained. i'm not trying to parrot anyone, it's just a fact.

their styles would make a great match up, a hard to pick match up, and their skill set, mind set, and fighting mentality would make for a fantastic fight, but the size is the major difference and hurdle here.

if pacquiao is willing to negotiate some proper wiggle room for martinez in the weight department, then it's a good fight, and i'd pick martinez to win........ and i think that he would out slick pacquiao and maybe even stop him, obviously going by his past performance, but yeah, i think martinez can ok pacquiao unless weight drained to DLH proportions...........

arum knows this fight will sell.

I agree. That fight should not even be discussed any further after this week. All that needs to be discussed as far as Manny is Floyd and vice versa.

this pac shouldnt be made. for sure any compromise between the two wouldn't be justifiable to any fan. people would still find fault even if it's at 156.

I agree with Arum that Manny's going to get hurt if he continues fighting bigger men. He can't even hydrate past 149. Save Martinez for last.
