Floyd fought Oscar and Manny fought Margo for a wbc title at 154

[Left Hook Tua]

floyd and pac are too small for sergio.

if they want to fight him , good for them.

if they don't , i ain't gonna hate on them.


these 2 guys are small for 147 , let alone 154 or 160.

[radab]

best 3 fighters in the world can meet at 154 imo..make it happen for the fans..and plus they'd make great money doing it

How many are Martinez fans? Maybe if Martinez speaks English the American public/media will buy into him.

this has to stop. THIS HAS TO STOP.

Oscar = past prime and Floyd's BIGGEST PAYDAY to date.

Margarito = past prime and guaranteed 1 million+ PPVs.

Martinez = PPV DISASTER!!! he cannot sell PPVs, he cannot sell tickets, he cannot sell at the gate, etc. etc. etc. etc.

Floyd and Manny are not a charity!!!! I repeat: Floyd and Manny ARE NOT A CHARITY. Why, why, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy would they give Martinez the biggest payday of his life when they are providing 99% of the drawing power???

On what planet, in what alternate universe, does that make any sense at all????

Seriously, you do not need a degree from Wharton business school to understand this so please, please stop repeating this same question over and over when the answer is so patently obvious so as to be absurd.

Plain and basic common sense

Well both went back down after their one and only fight at that weight. Could it be that they did this because they just didn't feel comfortable at said weight?

And, if they didn't feel comfortable at said weight, why ask for them to fight an elite fighter at a weight-class that they don't feel comfortable competing in?

+1.

People just can't seem to think rationally or reasonably about things. They'd just believe Floyd & Pacman are ducking LOL.

Timing Larry, that's what it's all about. Floyd knows Martinez is dangerous & leagues better than any fighter he's faced up to this point,(at the time he fought them). So does Pacman.

Besides he doesn't fit the overall criteria for Pacman. The only thing he has that interest team Pacman is age. But he isn't shot or slipping or suffered a brutal ko. When he gets there, they'll jump on it. Just like Mosley was too good even for 142 when he trashed Margarito. And they were brave but not brave enough for Margarito when he trashed Cotto.

At least Floyd won't make excuses. He just won't do it.

[Pacquiao'd]

funny how *******s are full of excuses when it comes to this but we floyd fans wanna see it

[Chopper417]

Don't get me wrong I would LOVE to see either Pac or Floyd fight Martinez at 154..BUT at the end of the day we have to be realistic. Pac probably walks around at somewhere from 150-155, Floyd probably 160-165, and Martinez probably about 185. I'm sorry if I can't be mad at Pac or Floyd for not getting in the ring with a guy who walks around every day at least 20-20 pounds heavier than them. Anyone who has ever actually boxed before can appreciate this. I remember one time when I was sparring in the UK I was around 170 and they put me in there with a guy who was about 195. I boxed circles around him for the most part, but let me tell you, when he actually did hit me, it was like getting hit by a f***ing freight train lol.

does margo speak english??how much english does jmm speak??was this really your excuse??

[AKATheMack]

If Sergio is the same size as Margo he should have no problem making the 150. Hes bigger though which seems to be the problem for Manny. Floyd was willing to fight Oscar at 154, so that argument is valid, but Pac wasnt wiling to fight at 154.
