    Martinez: "If Pac wants a 153lb catchweight or around there, we can make it work"

    It seems to be getting closer to becoming doable. 153 is pretty low.
    "If Pacquiao wants to do a 153 pound catch-weight or somewhere around their, we can probably make it work. But I don't really know right now, I want Miguel Cotto first," Martinez said
    About two months ago, I interviewed the former WBC Super Welterweight Champion, Sergio Martinez (46-2-2, 25 KO's) at the Nov. 27 Marquez-Katsidis event at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev...

    Yeah, he wishes. Pick on someone your own size. How about Sergio comes down to 147.... Everybody wants Pac to just keep putting on weight.... Manny has to eat like a pig just to make 147.

    Thats what Oscar thought. Entice him into a big money fight at my weight...
    Not to Mannys benefit this time... Martinez is too big..

      I think Manny would fight him at 154 if it would make the most money after a Floyd fight. Until Sergio becomes a big draw(which he most likely never will be), the fight'll never happen though.

            I think Sergio can beat all SMW, maybe besides Bute. Bad that everyone beside Bute is busy.

                Sexay should let it go.

                Manny should fight a Berto, Bradley after this fight.

                Manny better not fight JMM at 147 after Shane.

                    Although I agree Sergio should target guys more his size or even at SMW, really can't blame him for trying to get the biggest money fights possible. He's smart enough to know he doesn't have much time left in Boxing and he's basically at the apex of his marketability and fame, makes sense to try to get a Pac fight where he would be guaranteed upwards of $5 mil.

                    But Cotto would be the more realistic target, he can go up to 154 and probably a little above that (155-157 CW maybe?).
