    We all know by now(some in denial) that Pacquiao won't fight good live bodies anymore. Ducked one elusive boxer, and now he ducks another. I am not surprised.
    How about Sergio vs Hopkins at light heavyweight. who do you think will win and why? Take note: Hopkins already a grandpa by his age.

      Margacheato is a B-level fighter, one dimensional brawler, slow, way past his prime, is nothing without his loaded gloves, etc.

      One poster here ask why Sergio is always looking south, why can't he look north? If he really wants that mythical P4P title, he can fight Froch, Ward, Bute and the rest of the gang. He can't be denied if he keeps winning. That's how Pacquiao and Floyd got there in the first place.

      I understand Martinez' situation though. He's getting up there and needs the big money fights NOW which only Floyd and Pacquiao can give. He wants to have his cake and eat it too...

        So now weight becomes a difference? It's good to know Martinez wouldn't weight drain himself. I disagree with the too big excuse, it doesn't make sense. Simply because they fought Margarito.

          The Margarito fight is an indication that Pac does not belong in that weight class. The title was not legit and Pac can't even get to 147. Dude can't even get to 150 at fight night. Let me it this way, if Pac won a bogus belt and does not belong in 154. If you believe he is and he must fight Sergio then Pac must the baddest man in boxing with some surreal expectations.

            Did you have any idea how many lbs Sergio would be over Pac if they fights at 154 fight night? It would be more than 25 lbs! If they fight at 160, it would be over 30 lbs. You think that is fair enough and not too big for Pac?

              OMFG!!!

              The guy was a world champ at flyweight, 112. Meaning, he was on top of his game when he won that flyweight belt. Do you know how many weight classes are there between flyweight through Jr. middleweight? That's 10 freakin' weight classes. Do you really think he is Superman? Jesus...

                bhop would win imo but this whole thing has nothing to do with bhop we are all just trying to figure out why was marg at 164 on fight night in a one sided win not too big for pac... But serg is too big???? Serg was 168 on fight night vs paul williams and in his last fight... So at a contract at 154 hed most likeley come in the same size as marg... Who gave pac no problems

                    Did Pac fought Margarito at 154? Pac beating Marg who has over 17 lbs advantage to him doesn't mean he should fight all the 154 and 160 fighters where he himself can't even make it to 145. That is the question if you think 20 lbs over are nothing to you. Why not try to box against those 20 lbs over to you so that you will experience it on first hand how it taste like? There a lot of fighters Pac to fight at 147. Why he will go to 154 or 160 when he can even get pass to 145 during weigh in?

                      Margo made the contracted weight, 150 lbs. to be exact. How the **** would Pacquiao know he'll be 165 come fight night? Right after the fight, at the postfight press conference (Check post # 65, page 7 for the video), Bob Arum said that Pacquiao told him that he's done at 154, he bit more than he can chew and he'll go back down to 147, this is a WEEK before the Martinez/Williams fight...
