Comments Thread For: DiBella Rips Freddie Roach: He's Terrified For Chavez Jr.

[modro11]

Sergio is good for boxing, he is a good boxer but what i dont like is what he and his team keeps on spewing and belittling other fighters like they are some kind of cash cow.... dont say quillin who? and then get offended by other fighters by saying sergio who?...

I'm a boxing fan and I didn't even know who Quilin was until I read this article. It takes time for Martinez to gain popularity, as with every other boxer. After all, Martinez emerged only last year. It's just ironic of Freddie Roach to belittle Martinez while not letting both Pacquiao and Chavez get in the ring with him. I'd watch a Pacquiao-Martinez fight at a catchweight of 150 pounds. Boxing is stagnant as of late (except for Rodriguez-Wolak). I wouldn't mind better entertainment.

I agree with you homie. I think everything was on line in the sport until Floyd Mayweather Jr and Oscar De La Hoya made all that money in one fight. After that, I noticed that the promoters and their fighters started thinking and worrying about making big money. Then Manny Pacquiao came and made his money and then it was a wrap from there BUT the difference between Mayweather/Pacquiao to these other up and coming fighters is that Floyd and Pac actually paid their dues to get to this point where they could make that much money. It wasn't always like that for them and I think these young fighters should be able to recognize that and the promoters should be able to respect that fact and continue to make the best fights for their clients instead of trying to cash in on them each time. Sergio Martinez been around for a while but he didn't start shining till after that first fight with Williams.

Would have been against Cintron but they stole that win from him that night and Diabella should have been fired for letting that go down without a fight but favoritism was on the side of Cintron because he had a better name in the sport. I feel Diabella needs to hire some real good PR guys for Sergio, teach him english and get him in some films or commercials. Dude got personality and looks. Diabella needs to do what he can because ain't no promoter trying to lose to no other company these days. I think Golden Boy would put one of their fighters in with Martinez before Top Rank would though.

great post grus. one of the best posts ive read from you

its a damn shame dibella didnt do a better job with sergio... you know for a fact that if sergio was a GBP fighter, he wouldve been in a video game, crazy sponsorship deals, latin broadcast experience, EVERYTHING. LOL. and if he wouldve been signed with TR, he wouldve FEASTED on arum's buffet of faded ELITE names... fought on the undercard of pac, and get CRAZY exposure. you never know, after feeding sergio some toprank big names, SERGIO might be the one on the hp commercials (at least in latin countries). LOL

What, like Pacquiao does ?

Explain to me why Manny picked Mosley instead of Berto.

Three opponents were short-listed..... Marquez, Mosley, Berto.

Marquez is a lightweight, and Mosley was clearly shot and should not have been ranked in the top 5..... so why did Pacquiao pick Mosley over Berto ?

And, explain this..... " Victor Ortiz is too green "

Wow...Seriously....After reading all your responses, it seem like you have a big ***gedy crush on Pacquiao. I thought your lips is just on Frauds ****, I guess you are also getting butt fcuked by Pacman. this about Martinez why is Pacquiao's name coming out of your post left and right.

Quillin vs Chavez Jr.??? Then, if Quillin wins, Martinez can fight Quillin instead of Chavez Jr. & everybody's happy

[richardt]

So lets see, Martinez is willing to fight Mayweather and Pac, guys who are clearly smaller than him, yet he said he does not have the "frame" (in his own words) to fight any of the 168 pound fighters??????? So he doesn't mind if Pac or May fight a bigger frame guy, but he won't??????

I guess that might be the reason Quillin didn't sign with DiBella and eventually went with GBP. Agreed on post by Grustler. Gave him a Green K for it.

Sounds good by apparently no one cares about fans being happy anymore. We're just the fools that pay the bills! Maybe we should start doing pre-Pay-per-view buys with options. Then the bouts that have the most sales would be the actual peoples choice!

That seems to be the case here! As I mentioned earlier, Quillin walks around at Supermiddle but is a true blue POWERFUL Middleweight. He has no issue dropping anything for Sergio as long as he gets a shot to DROP SERGIO!

That's probably not going to happen. Roach trains both fighters.

and FYI to the idiots here who is living in the past....Manny gave up the JMW title, CANELO is the one holding the belt after manny vacated it...lolz...

That is a childish whiney cop-out kid.

Manny STILL claims to be an 8-division titlist, and yet he dumped that **** as fast as he could before he was compelled to fight a genuine JMW.
