Small steps David.

An excellent puncher, but not on Martinez' level.

He should look to fight one of the german's, or even Pavlik first.

A couple more fights, preferably against durable/skilled boxers, and then look to secure a Pavlik fight by the end of 2011.

lemieux vs pirog would be nice....

Great Idea. That fight should def happen before Martinez

If all goes well until the match up, it' s a win win situation for him againts Martinez. If he wins he's the champion and if he loses he gets a bunch of experience in return.

25 wins with 24 KO's with 55 rounds boxed isn't much experience...in fact this small experience in rounds boxed is the real enigma in the equation.
