    If this fight goes down, I've got 50k on Martinez.

      Why would Martinez want to do a catchweight? Thats Hopkins prime weight. And Martinez's worst weight I would think. Hopkins needs to fight Chad Dawson. But I really want to see is Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins Vs. Lucian Bute! Very close fight! Hopkins said after he fought Pascal that he wants Dawson and Bute next. I hope he waits a while for that and Sergio Martinez tries fighting a few easier fights there first before he fights one of the best if not the best Light Heavyweights today.

          I don't think Martinez will actually fight at that weight. If he moves up it would be to fight a super 6 competitor at 168. 170 is way too much at the moment, maybe if he proves to be effective at 168 he could try 170.

            Why is this even being discussed. Hopkins will murder Martinez in the ring.

                    Is there that much of a difference between 168 and 170. Obviously, no.
                    Also, for those sayin Martinez will get murdered - no way. Calzaghe beat Hopkins; Calzaghe may be bigger than Martinez, but he's not better. It would be a very interesting fight, and I could see it goin either way.

                      Hopkins has nearly always fought smaller men: Oscar, Winky, Pascal, Calzaghe, Taylor, Trinidad, etc.

                      The only one about his own size was Tarver.

                      It's no surprise he wants to fight Sergio, instead of moving up and fighting for a title at cruiserweight or heavyweight.
