Teddy Atlas: If Manny is that great he should step up and fight Sergio Martinez!

i want Pac vs Martinez at 160 i mean RIGHT NOW!!!

LMAO Heavyweights are different you dumbass because the heavier the other is the mostly likely slower they are. In the lower weight classes there's not much difference in speed like there is the heavyweight, so size differences matter much more. Sergio has good speed and has 20 pounds on Pac again how is that a fair fight??

you keep crying that Manny can't take this fight because it isn't fair but let me ask you when was the last time Manny was in a fair fight? All his future opponents aren't fair fights Judah stands no chance and there asking JMM to come up in weight to fight Manny. He could have a completely fair fight against Mayweather if he took the test but he doesn't wan't to do that either. All Manny fans want to see is him beating the brains outta his opponents. You don't give a **** if it's fair or not.

Who went up in weight to fight Hatton, Cotto, De La Hoya, Mosley, and Clottey?

You mean he Went up in weight to fight De La Hoya, down in weight to fight Hatton and back to his now regular division to fight Mosley and Clottey.

154lbs is good enough, martinez has alreayd said hed be happy to fight at 154, but pac refused it n asked sergio to come in at 147 or somthing ****** like that.

If given the chance and if the circumstances are both good for Pacquiao and Martinez.Pacquiao is WILLING to fight Martinez, he fought guys much bigger than himself in his entire career unlike Floyd 'The Vacationer' spent his GARBAGE CAREER DUCKING!

Speaking of a Pac-Sergio, did you guys see the camel toe on that ringcard girl.

[hanzoh74]

I disagree. While I have Sergio as the P4P Guy right now, I think he's too big for Manny, and Roach and them know it.

I remember Roach and them talking about how when Manny fought Margarito that those punches hurt and that he realized he'd sort of hit the wall as far as how high he could go, because the guys up there were just too big and strong.

So I think it'd be an interesting fight, but I think the size difference is a bit much for Manny.

wer all talking about about how big his opponents are since fighting David Diaz up to Mosley but Pac keeps winning and defying logic so why not going to fight for a 160lb title and its a lineal title too....after that Bhop FTW for the lineal title after he beats Pascal

[eklok]

once pac demolish martinez he should move up again and face bernard hopkins!!!!

[jai mari078]

Well people point to him weighing like 145 or whatever on fight night and say "why can't he go a few pounds more". The problem is that while HE will be hitting around that 147-149 range, the other cats will be 153 or 154 possibly. Sergio is fighting at Middleweight.

I think people focus too much on the lower end of that weight class and saying "it's only a few pounds" when unless they force some ****** catch weight thing on us (which they no doubt will), the other dude will be weighting much more. Plus they're used to fighting much larger fighters than Manny.

The higher you go, the less your power and speed are as effective as you are used to.

I just think it's a bad move for Manny to do that. I don't like Manny, and would be rooting for Martinez to win. That said, it is a no win situation for Manny. Even if he pulls out the victory it's going to get him damaged. Sergio has too much size and strength for him I think.

Not taking away from Manny's toughness. Just saying.
