    So you're saying he hits too hard for Pac? Ok then.

      Yup, Larry said 22 lbs are not big deal. I think Martinez can add extra 10 lbs to his 170, so difference will be only 18 lbs. So why not?

        Nah Arum will never do it

        But i just cant understand why he doesnt have a bigger following. I mean he is one of the top 3 fighters in the world and is one of the most exciting fighters as well.

        But TBH the only reason i went to that fight was to watch Dzinzurik and if he wasnt fighting Dzinzurik, i wouldnt have gone

          IDK is boxing real big Argentina? Just look at the Ricans, they get behind any fighter who can string together 10 wins with a good ko %.

            The fight with Dzin had about 2500 guys in the stands and half of them were Dzin fans
            yeah i noticed there were a lot of empty seats in that fight. no wonder they're aiming for the big names but with dibella as his promoter it's harder for him to get those fights.

              I think its OK.

              I think Maidana sold out a 17K arena over there fighting Corley right before Khan.

              I think its the fact that Sergio just hit the scene out of nowhere at 35, instead of being built up like almost every fighter

                Then why would people put weight divisions, but not height divisions? Almost all HWs even with differences in height and weight are able to hurt and KO each other, but in lower weights size makes big differences, given the divisions are much deeper than HW all top guys are not easy guys.

                  Andy Lee had as many fans as Sergio there

                    Yeah he just kind of took me by surprise when I 1st saw him fight Bunema, I was like how the **** have I not seen this guy when he has over 40 fights?

                    If he keeps looking impressive though he will get more notoriety, I like the Kirkland fight for him because that guy will always bring in fans with his style and I like him for Sergio because of all the punches he blocks with his face.

                      The fight will never happen. I understand your frustration, but c'mon. This fight has never been in the cars. Arum's cards, and it never will be.
