Sergio Martinez is currently the world's best fighter

[Fish_Scotland]

I swear...you one of the REALEST posters on here...personally, I still got Manny on top and Sergio 2nd....but you spot on about the fanbases and those dude holding the sport hostage....and anybody who follows the sport with a magnifying glass will see that B.Hop is the greatest of the active....taking nothing from Manny because he's a good ambassador for the sport...a very likeable dude imo but it is what it is

You are obviously taking the ****in p*ss. I can't even begin to think what you've possibly seen in recent years that I haven't to come to that conclusion. B-Hop isn't even a ****ing fighter, all he's done for a few years (and in him prime but he could also could box then) is hold and spoil. B-Hop isn't even an all time great!

I like Sergio, and his ability does impress me quite a bit. I would favor him to win over both Floyd and Manny as neither of them have fought a larger, quick, athletic opponent before in their career. The only issue that I have is that Sergio doesn't seem to be able to fight well on the inside, but he has good legs that for the moment prevent him from having to do so.

Also, while I was impressed with his ko victory against Dzinziruk, I realize that Sergei was inactive for nearly a year previously. Definitely, a good name for his resume though regardless, along with Pavlik and Williams. I know he wants to fight Chavez jr. but, while it'll be entertaining, it's not going to place him any higher on my p4p list. If he's looking for bigger fights to improve his resume he may want to take a peek at super middleweight where there's an abundance of talent.

U know what's so funny about when people talk about Martinez fighting at 168,they bring up the best fighters there.Then compair that to pacman hopping weight classes.But lets be real,who Pacman fought at 150 for the 154 title ws nowhere near the top.That would be like Martinez fighting Bika,or Codrington at 164 for a vacant title.But since it isn't Pacman,Martinez would be criticized heavily for that.

i love martinez but even if martinez fought pacquiao and beat him...he shouldn't take the P4P title...
to over take manny while manny is still in his prime he will have to copy roy jones path...at least up to light heavyweight.

Sergio will be soon if:

A) Pacman can't find a decent name to fight (I can only realistically think of floyd, anyone above 154 is still ridiculous to me).

B) Donaire doesn't fight Agbeko/Perez maybe even Marez.

Martinez is a roll but besides his last 2 fights, what was his biggest victory?

[JBell11]

I agree that Martinez at this point in time, is the best fighter P4P.

If Pac has to step up to 154 and loses, that wouldnt be such a great win, but only a very good win for Sergio. If he stepped down to Pacs weight 147 and beat Pac now that would be a fantastic win.

That would make Sergio p4p the best in the world. Because p4p means all being equal size etc who would win. Because we know if Pac was 5ft10 and 11stone 7 he would beat Sergio nice and easy.
If Sergio shrinked himself down to Pacs weight and beat him....respect is due. But as it is Sergio is not p4p the best fighter in the world im afraid to say.
