    AA vs Martinez for MW title?

    There are rumors of AA dropping back down to Middleweight after the Super 6....if those are true....who would like to see him fight Sergio?

    I know I would.......

    I would actually like to see Sergio fight Kirkland....once James gets back into shape with a couple of tune ups....

    Yay or Nay?

    Kirkland needs some good wins 1st and AA is just not that good, was untested and when he got tested finally he failed at the world class level.

      AA wouldn't hit Martinez, so we are in for a booring fight.
      Kirkland would be a war, but I see Martinez ahead of him, especially after jail.

        Agree with the Kirkland stmt....good tests for Kirkland would be?

        Chavez Jr? Angulo? P-Willy? There aren't too many "tests" out there without them being elite/great fighters.....

        AA was favored by many to win the Super 6....even though he was really a MW....I myself picked Ward from jump....I wouldn't say he failed at the world class level....he was warming up against AD....and Froch shocked the world with his boxing skill....I still think AA is a elite MW....just my opinion.

          Martinez against Abraham would be a good fight for Sergio, Abraham has trouble with guys that move in and out, and he really doesn't throw unlit the other guy is done throwing, and Sergio is always throwin lol, besides Abraham has a name and after the Super Six is well know by boxing fans.

          A fight against Kirkland would be a war but I still think Sergio beats him, however I don't think Martinez is gonna wait for Kirkland to get in a position to challenge him for the title, so this fight probably won't happen.

              Abraham would need to build his confidence back up, but definitely I would want to see him fight Martinez.

                Any of those names would be fine for Kirkland but Froch showed he could box well early in the Kessler fight but abandoned it late because I guess he just loves a good fight. AA's best win is probably against either a shot Taylor or the Miranda rematch from the 1st fight he could have easily lost. So he could fight those very same guys, Sturm, Pavlik, or even some prospects like Fernando Guerrero to prove himself a little.

                  There was an article stating that Sergio was going to appear on HBO boxing 3 times in '11....Kirkland should be plenty in shape after 2 "tune-ups" and SHOULD be ready for a winter showdown against Martinez.....if promoted properly...if both fighters are matched up properly leading up to their fight...I wouldn't mind forking over $49.95 to watch that WAR.

                    Build up confidence against who? That is the true ?

                    Especially back down at MW....who would he be given credit for, while building his confidence back up?

                    Angulo? P-Willy? Chavez JR.?
