    He beats them all, most easily, except for Floyd, who is 50-50 with him at 154.

      Taylor's highly uncoordinated but if he had something left in the tank then I would love that fight for some reason

        I would love to think Jermain has anything left, but I need to see that to believe it. Jermain in his prime, yeah he could beat Martinez, definitely.

          pretty much agree ^^^ Floyd fight 50-50 just because of floyds skill level. Maybe AA could land a big shot but otherwise masive UD for martinez. Martinez schools the rest KO'ING cotto,pacquiao,williams (again),taylor,strum and kirland. UDing winky and pirog

            1. Felix Sturm. I think he beats him. In truth, I don't think Sturm has done anything impressive since beating an out-of-shape Oscar De La Hoya. I don't hate the guy, but he just hasn't done anything. He's slower. Probably doesn't hit as hard and he's lacking, it seems, in the intangibles department. Wide decision. Maybe a stoppage.

            2. James Kirkland. This might have been a harder choice a year ago. But, I still would have gone with Martinez. Now, I'm going with Martinez by fourth or fifth round stoppage at the most. Too good for a guy like Kirkland who's always been crude and now, apparently, is easier to hit and can't always take the shots.

            3. Winky Wright. He'd beat him a few years ago and he'd beat him now. It's hard to say, prime-for-prime. But, at this point, Martinez takes a wide decision.

            4. Dmitry Pirog. If it's the Pirog that showed up for Jacobs, it's an interesting fight. If it's the Pirog that we last saw, he doesn't stand a chance. A bit too early to tell what he's more like. I'd pick Martinez. Decision of some sort.

            5. Miguel Cotto. He likely beats Cotto by stoppage. Cotto has more of a chance if he gets Martinez to move back down to Jr. Middleweight. Still, I'd pick Martinez to end up stopping Cotto in the later rounds. A bit earlier at Middleweight.

            6. Arthur Abraham. Martinez beats him. Martinez has a solid enough punch to keep Abraham honest and covering up. Still, if Abraham comes out like he did with Abraham in the first few rounds, he has a chance. I'd still go with Martinez, however.

            7. Jermaine Taylor. In protest, I wouldn't watch. Taylor gets beat and perhaps badly.

            8. Paul Williams. I've seen enough to know that more often than not, Martinez is going to get the better of Williams. Some could argue he's done it twice. We know for a fact that it's been at least one BIG time. It'd likely happen again. Especially at Middleweight.

            9. Manny Pacquiao. If Pacquiao was hurt to the body by Antonio Margarito, I have a feeling that 154 is simply not Manny's division. I could be wrong, but 147 seems like the more proper fit. I wouldn't count Manny out, but I wouldn't bet on either guy.

            10. Floyd Mayweather. Floyd has a better chance at 154. He's done well there the one time that he's been at the weight. Still, I'm not sure it's a fight that Mayweather would want. I'd favor Mayweather, to an extent. But, I wouldn't bet on either guy.

              Most of the guys you mention would give him some problems but I can see him beating them all, for different reasons. Sucks to be Sergio right now. Time running out and no big money fight in the foreseeable future. And this guy may be the best doing it today.
