Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez's Trainer Rips Manny Pacquiao, Cotto

[Left2theliver]

On a side note, I don't think its fair to call Sergio a coward for calling out Pacquiao. Pac's the p4p ranked #1 fighter in the world. Sergio wants to make a name for himself to the general public and score a big money fight...why not? Pac just won a title at 154, given that he fought at 150. So, if Sergio wants to challenge him for his Junior Middleweight title and he can make the weight...then why not? As long as Sergio is willing to move to 154lb for it and not force manny to go up to 158 or something to defend it.

Didn't Pacqiauo just make history by winning his 8th title at Jr Middleweight? Then when he gets offered to defend his title by the most legit and dangerous fight available it can't happen?

Why is this?

did'nt pacquiao win the title at 150, and not at 154?....it cant happen becuase of the weight, not because anyone ducked anyone...

Mayweather won it at the legit weight limit of 154 agaisnt a legit champion.

yes he won it at 154 but why didnt he defend it??

I know I said it, but I was joking 100%.

Sergio said a while ago that he would be willing to go to 155 only then he changed and said he could do 154. Manny and Arum said Manny would not be willing to fight at 154 anymore because he's fought to many big guys already and its wearing his body out. I don't think Sergio and Manny would be a fair fight because Sergio is too big but Manny is a hypocrite for going to 154 in the first place and then abandoning the weight class.

Right...you didn't, but you sure implied it. Unless, of course, you were speaking of a catchweight.

how did i imply it when i said clearly 150...will you please smart up a lil and stop being yourself......

[IronDanHamza]

how can you defend a jmw title at at 155 when the max limit is 154?....

and who called sergio a coward?....

I guess your right.

But why not? 1 pound won't make a difference will it? Wasn't that the logic used with the Cotto fight? It won't make a difference IMO.

Who called him a coward? ME! How dare Sergio call out Manny Pacqiauo the P4P #1! The guy who just won a title at Jr Middleweight! A weight close lower than his in which he isn't huge in. He has some real cheek!

[puga]

So a catchweight of 150?

why not?...

well, to be quite honest, I wasn't aiming it towards you. I've just been seeing a lot of people say that lately =/

In my mind Manny aint the champ at 154 because he aint fought at that wieght yet.
