Sergio Martinez didnt get good until he was 34! Thats not suspect? Is he overrated?

[chiguy91]

he did waste a lot of time fighting nobodies but when he had a chance, he tried getting his shot, it's just no one would give it to him before.

He isn't a light middle weight knocking out heavyweights, and he started boxing at the age of twenty which would make him prime in his career just about where he is now.not to mention he's willing to take Blood tests!

Let's make this a rule:

Anyone who says Martinez had a draw with Cintron should not be allowed to post, period.

Never said he was on ped's man.

late bloomer? it took 12 years and over 40 fights to bloom?

Do you understand that developing great boxing skill takes a long time and a lot of hard work, you can have talent but need the knowledge with that and its not something you can gain very fast. he started late so now he is at his peak where as if he started early he might be shop worn by now.

i second that motion.

Sergio had only one loss prior to getting in the light- so the speak. Boxing is a skill and skills can be learned, practiced, refined, etc. Floyd seems to be arguing that you can't learn to be great- either you have "God given talent" or you do not. Of course Floyd doesn't accept education, does he even have a high school diploma?

tell that to floyd boy.

apparently your God doesn't want any of Martinez. The dude can't stop talking about Pac but Martinez? the guy pretends not to know he exists.

[Abraham Reyes]

TS is just mad that his boy chavez jr is punk b!tch and fears sergio just like everyone else.

Why on earth do people keep bringing up the Cintron draw? You guys are either so ****ing ******ed that you should be put down or you've never seen it, which means that commenting on it makes you the aforementioned ******.

Now, get this through your head ****....Martinez knocked out Cintron. He hit him with a punch and Cintron got counted out. The corrupt promoter, whoever it was, somehow got them going again.

Martinez won most of the rounds, he scored two knockdowns, and he knocked out Cintron for the full count........yet he was robbed blind. Truly one of the worst, most overlooked robberies of recent decades.

I'll say it one more time for the slow ones....He knocked Cintron out. A draw in which one guy won by ten count KO? Only a ****** as moronic and ****** as Cash Cow/Horus/****face could bring that up as if it's a black mark against Martinez.

Yeah sure, winning a fight first by KO, then winning it a second time by easy, wide decision but somehow getting sop screwed over that he didn't end up winning it at all is absolutely the best way to show he sucks.
