Comments Thread For: Martinez's Trainer: Mayweather The Toughest Bout For Us

Truth about the fact is, I'm willing to bet that Manny would have fought SLOW ASS Margarito regardless, Margarito could have been a super MW, and the media would have been hyping it up as "Manny is going to be a SMW champion"
(He's the greatest fighter of all time!!!)

I think the only clear reason why Manny won't fight Martinez, is because he knows it would be a ass whooping.

Truth about it is, they both should have NEVER won a title at 154 unlest they were willing to fight at 154.

[WesleySnipes]

when these guys will realize that it will NEVER happen?

[D4thincarnation]

Anyone with a brain realizes that he would be Martinez toughest challenge.

No.

Martinez toughest fight's would be against Froch, Kessler, Ward and Bute.

[Pacquiao'd]

Lets get it on...54. we k.ow Pacroid won't take the fight

[tomatocantender]

No.

Martinez toughest fight's would be against Froch, Kessler, Ward and Bute.

C'mon dawg, keep it 100 and stop dropping oranges into the apple cart. Has Martinez fought at 154 somewhat recently? Answer is Yes. Has Martinez ever fought at 168? Answer is No, notta, never. So by your logic then why just stop at the aforementioned Froch, Kessler, Ward and Bute? Let's add BHop, Dawson, Pascal and Cloud into the mix. Hell since we're on a roll let's just ask Martinez to gain 40 lbs on the scale and challenge one of the Klits.

Dude holds the "real" green strap for the second most highly touted division in Boxing's entire history, and you're begging him to go up 8 lbs just to watch him get bodied. Whatever man.

floyd and martinez would be a lot more realistic, but still a huge size advantage for martinez. floyd walks around at 160-165, and lately (he's been REFUSING to reveal his weight on fight night since marquez and mosley fights) he's rehydrating to about 160 (judging by how he looked next to marquez in the ring; marquez REVEALED his weight which was 148).

martinez just sounds like such a ***** by only calling out smaller guys at unfair weights (TELL HIM to come to call manny out at 150 if he wants to send the impression manny is ducking him). and the only other guy he calls out, chavez, is a guy everybody knows is light years behind martinez. for some reason people on here ACTUALLY want to believe martinez is some kind of "people's champ" HAHAHA

In a lot of ways Martinez is the boxing diehards' champ b/c he beat Pavlik, whereby the latter and Arum held the middleweight belts hostage for damn near 2 yrs with fake staph breakouts, several outright ducks (insert Williams and Abraham here), and the fact that HBO prematurely called this Youngstown polished club fighter, "The Centerpiece of American Boxing."

Now on to your claims that Martinez is calling out Manny at an "unfair weight", are you serious? Sergio never asked Manny to come up to 160, it was actually at 154. Didn't Manny win a world title at 154? Yeah thought so and don't hide behind the scale being at 151 b/c if that belt goes around your waste then you're recognized at 154 plain & simple. Oh and why are you, my friendly neighborhood *******, saying for Martinez to come down to 150? Manny fought Margo at 151 but I get it, let's shave another pound off of the scale b/c our Pinoy idol is allowed to play on a kiddie 8 foot rim while the rest play regulation height. I get it now! Pass the ball dude cuz you throwing up bricks with this crackhead argument.

[Kobayashi]

f... team Martinez. Stop talking about welterweight!

[DoktorSleepless]

Where the **** are people getting 185 pounds from? Do you seriously believe everything Bob Arum tells you? Sergio himself said he was only 169 a month ago before training camp.

[LeadUppercut]

Martinez should stop calling out guys who are fighting 2 weight divisions below him

Martinez is a large JMW who punches above his weight.

Mayweather and Pacquiao have both won titles at JMW.

The fight would be held at 154.

No big deal there my friend.

fight guys like Sturm or Abraham.

I did not think too highly of the first half of your post, but I cannot disagree with the seoncd half. At least you didn't suggest that Martinez "pick on someone his own size" like, Bute, Ward, or Froch
