Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez's Adviser Fires Back at Pirog's Promoter

[Sugar Q]

When you see a *******, I mean a fool you leave'em a fool. I'll end it that way. Now I'm gonna hit the gym and allow you Tards to come up with more dumb ass theories cause Tarrds dont deal in reality they deal in another logic that scientist haven't come up with a cure for. :-)

If Martinez want to be #1 p4p, he should have no problem fighting at 168.

[UglyPug]

Well I did, and plenty others on here did as well. My god it really wasn't that huge of an upset. Nobody is popping anything after the fact. This could very easily be proven by using the search function.



OK.



But, then why is he fighting Barker next?



Yes he does. But, you do know that he's fighting Barker next right? He was willing to fight Zbik right?



But, Martinez is fighting Barker next. Has Barker beating guys that are better than Jacobs? Hell has Barker beating anybody who's as good as Jacobs?



You would have a great point if MARTINEZ WASN'T FIGHTING BARKER NEXT FOR GOD SAKE'S. Martinez choosing and willing to fight someone like Barker and ignore Pirog constantly makes your moot point.

Sergio was just BARELY the underdog in the fight against pavlik. in fact, i think the lines were even in a lot of cases. it was split down the middle for that fight.

Im upset with Sergio fighting Barker too. Sergio isn't some "people's champ" - he's just like every other boxer - most money for the lowest risk.

I still dont see how Pirog is any more deserving than Barker? Pirog beat an untested prospect for a vacant title whooopty dooooo! Seriously I thought you ******s would shut the *** up after Sergio Beat Dzinzirik another no name russian but here we go again. When you fight Paul Williams and Kelly Pavlik back to back to back it's ***ing ****** to sit here and say Sergio is afraid and is ducking some obscure Russian fighter who has a win over a ***ing prospect. Whatever happened to "earning" a title shot. U know how they did back in the old days? I guess that doesn't apply if you have like 5 fans and sheer sheep on your days off.

And pirog is a big risk? based on what? Max Kellerman? Because hes an unknown goat hurder from russia?

How is Barker equally or more deserving than Pirog? Please explain.

[jrosales13]

Hmmm....

Barker is an unranked MW.

Pirog is ranked #8 by the ring and #5 by boxingscene. Arguably the 2 best and respected ranking we have now.

Pirog is a title holder. Barker is not.

Pirog would be a unification fight.

So for some not see how Pirog is more deserving than someone like Barker. Then they're just blind.

Funny how Pirog hasn't "earned his shot" but Barker has.

[Heeb]

I don't mind Martinez fighting Barker due to his recent tough schedule, but to say he is more deserving of a fight than Pirog is ridiculous.

[waxfondler]

interesting how team martinez is using the "promote your fighter better" card... yet thats the what they criticize arum for....

all im saying is that its a bit hypocritical.

sergio/pirog would be a great matchup. 2 slick boxers that arent afraid to mix it up.
