amazing that all the people hating on sergio...are retared *******s...serious theres 0 reasons to hate this guy..

Martinez ducked his last 2 mandatorys so I don't know who hes fighting in Sept but I know for damn sure it won't be his #1 mandatory who earned the right to fight for the title.

I also know he wont give Pwill a rubber match even though he is 1-1 against Pwill and I also know he wont rematch Margarito who KTFO outta Martinez and Pacquiao beat the **** outta Margarito.

"Martinez will take part in several functions to speak out against violence and domestic abuse. "

Great maybe Mayweather will be in attendance and hopefully this black bastard learns something when it comes to domestic abuse....

Mayweather nor Pacquaio will fight Maravilla. IMO, the most logical next opponent for the middleweight champ is Bernard Hopkins, win or lose in his rematch with Pascal. Money nor Pac will fight Martinez. There's no one relevant in his division. The top guys at super middle are tied up with the Super Six. Bute has signed a contract with Showtime and Maravilla has said he'll only fight on HBO. B-Hop, at 170, just makes sense to me. Its a big named opponent that will create splash and keep Maravilla's name buzzing. Plus, I think he beats the old guy.

Might be too much weight for him to carry.

it's because sampson lewkowicz has a verbal agreement with bob arum that martinez will fight cotto in september.

since nobody wants to fight martinez he'll have to wait until sept for cotto

How can you take Pac trains at 151-153 out of context? Only if you have some excuse you wanna make on his behalf. The man trains at 151-153 then comes down to his fight weight. He said it helps Manny absorb punches from bigger fighters. He also said that was the tactic he started using against Cotto.

Tell me, is any fighter at their best shape midway through training camp? Not only is he cutting down on body fat but he's also building up muscle in the process.

Now if he comes into the weigh in just as he is right now at 151-153, how many pounds would he rehydrate?

In his last couple fights, he's entered the ring at or around 170. That's all he'd need to beat the legend. B-Hop can't keep up with Maravilla's workrate at this point in his career.

If I weren't 100% sure you were wearing Wapakman footie pajamas while typing this, I'd destroy you for this post.

This is true...

So Cotto basically has to take care of business against Margarito and Cotto-Martinez takes place as planned. Too bad Sergio has absolutely no bargaining chips (besides maybe his championship, if Cotto goes after it) and will get the very short end of the negotiating stick.

But who cares about all that? Make that **** happen
