Why is it okay for Martinez to fight at SMW, but not okay for Martinez to fight Pac?

[DoktorSleepless]

Those people who are saying Martinez should be ashamed of himself for wanting Pac and then go on to say he should fight at super middleweight are hypocrites. The super middle weight guys are just about 20 pounds heavier than Martinez and are also 4 inches taller. Somehow it's okay for Martinez to fight with that "disadvantage", but it's not okay for Pac?

Yeah people forget that sergio fought at 154 most his career and barely moved up For the williams fight and the pavlic fight. And i think margs is about the same size.

Middleweight to SMW is 1 Division climb.

Welterweight to Middleweight is 2 Division climb.


Simple enough?

what was margirito weight in his last fight before he fought manny?(154) and what weight class and belt was manny fighting for? if he is eligible for the belt and that weight class and want people to take that title serious then he can fight anyone there.

pacquiao have fought 17 pounds heavier than him... lol

martinez now is middle weight a lineal mw king.. smw is near his weight.

martinez is pound for pound #3 he can make it.. he is a former welter weight it is not much for him.. it is only 3 division above welter weight. while manny is former flyweight a 7 division higher that he can fight is jr middle weight.

it is not much for martinez but tooooo much for a pacquiao fight.

but it can happen in near future.... but a mayweather- pacquiao fight is a must.

Given that Pacquiao was given a chance to fight for a 54 Belt.

Martinez is a MIDDLEWEIGHT Fighter. The only recognition pac will get from people like you is if he fight him at 160. That would be Crazy. pac will be 148 as usual and Martinez will be something like 170 at fight night.

If it is fought at a catch weight then the more people will **** on PAC. Its a very simple case of SIZE Difference. at least Marg made 150 to make it a bit more reasonable in terms of size.

Martinez would fight Pacquiao at jr middleweight, not middleweight. A 153 catchweight at that.

[ShoulderRoll]

Pacquaio fans will be quick to boast that he won a title in an eighth weight class at junior middleweight. But then Manny won't defend that title against Sergio Martinez at junior middleweight.

Face it *******s, the dude is a cherry picker.

and will not get any credit if he wins..
