Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez-Sebastian Zbik is Ordered By The WBC

[Mr Bigglesworth]

Martinez is 35, will be 36 on Feb. I don't even like him and I think a lot of people here overrate him. But come on Zbik? Dzinzuruk? Pirog? are you guys listening to yourselves? Like seriously, say your post out loud and listen to yourselves.

While we're at it, let's have Sechenko vs Pacquiao, Mayweather vs Zaveck, Berto vs Aydin, and Cotto vs Dzinzuruk???

Come on, the guy is 4 years away from 40, let him have his big name fights, he earned it.

And what Andy Lee is a big name? If he wants a keep busy fight then he should just beat the crap out of Zbik and then he can do what he likes for the rest of the year.

Martinez appears to only want to fight welterweights at a catchweight. Hes afraid to fight someone in his own weight class

keep thinking that *******. As for their recent accomplishments. Sergio blows pac out the water this year dont hate.

Just because he is 35, he shouldnt defend against Mandatories?

definitely - when do the sanctioing bodies ever do anything fair?

that is very true

he shouldnt be given mandatories after he defended his belt against the #1 contender in the division and had his belt less than a year. Even you know thats bs.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't Sergio still keep the ring and lineal championship. I think he would only be stripped of the WBC paper belt.

That is right.

The problem is there are no big fights left at 160 right now because he already beat the two guys who were supposed to be the best at that weight. Martinez is looking for money and exposure and at mw those type of fights are not available. Hopefully Pirog can get some decent wins on HBO and make himelf a name because that will be a good fight.

You understand the sanctioning bodies have their own ratings right? They don't go by third party ratings right?

And, I am still waiting for to answer my question on what title that Pac was able to keep without being stripped by not fighting a mandatory?

At the end of the day

the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO are all crap. Are all crooked and corrupted. Those belts mean nothing.

The only championships that matter is lineal and The Ring.

In a perfect world he and every elite fighter like Pac, Klitschkos, Pascal, Ward, Froch, Cotto, JMM, Montiel so on and so on would just say F'it and drop these garbage ass belts...

Williams was not the #1 contender for WBC
