People have got to be kiddin me - it was bad enough when people were calln Pacquiao a cherry picker just because his last couple of opponents werent lb for lb. But to call Martinez a cherry picker after Cintron, Williams, Pavlik, Williams, Dzinziruk is actually laughable.
Wit some people u cant win, if martinez fought Pirog and/or Zbik instead of Williams and Dzinziruk, he'd be called for ducking; but instead he's "cherry pickin" Pavlik, the middleweight champ, Williams, who was consensus top 5 lb 4 lb at the time of the fight, and Dzinziruk, undefeated jr. middleweight champ. O yeah - thats cherry pickin
i've seen enough of Pirog to know that he presents a more difficult skillset than the plodding Chavez jr...someone that actually uses his feet and has upperbody movement
Pavlik
Williams
Dzinziruk
and now Chavez....
fighters who are allergic to lateral movement
but hey, they're in the same weight class so its not a cherrypick
" in the same weight class " ?
One was the lineal champ, and the other was ranked the #1 contender.
Cant win an argument with Pac fans man. Just dont go there. If Pac fans dont want Martinez calling out their boy then he should not have tried to claim a belt in Martinez's weight class. At the same time they will protect Arum cause if they dont then his selection for Pac fights will be deminished because of the poor quality he fought.
Lets just stick to Martinez trying to get this overhyped clown who is living off his fathers name in the ring. Oh yeah and by the way CCJr came in 20 lbs heavier so he will be bigger than Martinez
Pac will fight for Sergio's title, against an opponent that beat Martinez, but he will not fight Martinez himself because Sergio is not a PPV fighter like Clottey.
undisputed middleweight champion of the world. Martinez is the true champ who beat the man (Pavlik) who beat the man (Taylor) who beat the MAN (Hopkins) who is the only guy to have ever unified all 4 belts at once (although others, like Calzaghe at 168, should have but got stripped before they could)
Rubbish.
Martinez was rightly stripped of the title in disgrace because he had been ducking Chavez for two years. The two main contenders fought and Chavez won easily; Chavez is the lineal champion of this world.
Martinez has never wanted it, does not want and will never want it with Chavez. He's not as ****** as he looks. He knows that 43 have tried and 43 have failed.
I can assure you Celaya, Loriga, Rowland and Lyell are world class fighters. At least, they were before they stepped into the ring with the undisputed middleweight champion of this world.
Celaya and Rowland are not world class fighters.
Celaya got dished up by the old featherweight king Norwood a couple of years ago when he was like 60yo.

Then..... lets get it on, Martinez vs Chavez for all the marbles
JR is in fact the Undisputed Middleweight Champion. Sergio would rather fight people smaller than himself, which explains why he so blatantly ducked JR and why he was stripped of the title.
JR is here to stay people, it would be better for you to acknowledge his superiority now rather than later. That way you will be happy and excited as opposed to sad and angry when he continues to completely dominate his opposition.
