Why does Sergio Martinez show a lot of respect to Mayweather but not to Pacquiao?

[littlemac]

Floyd fought Mosley, Ortiz when it mattered, when both were rated, coming off impressive performances. He's been doing it the right way, and I'm certain he's gonna continue to. Same can't be said for Manny, to top it off the catch weights and his refusal to test

YES Sir!!! Very on point you are!!!

[Canelo Phresh]

but it is one well traveled road in boxing to irk or minimize the one you wish to fight...sort of a challenge...

i don't think sergio will stop on calling out manny...

sergio knows pac may likely give him a shot more than floyd...

pac takes more risk than floyd...

sergio is a very big risk but a much worthy fight for pac..

i wish to see pac fight sergio, and win or lose, retire...

i hope your joking with that statement.

This is an honest question. Sergio has talked numerous times about Floyd and Manny but the tone is different when he addresses Floyd compared with Manny.

He is always respectful towards Floyd, compliments him and says that it would be an honor fighting him.

On the otherhand, when he talks about Manny, he downplays his latest victories and blatantly says that Manny is afraid of him.

Why do you guys think he does this?

Because Manny refused a roids test(until his earning potential was going to sink) and fights fighters(some over the hill) coming off of losses and makes them come in weight drained-- and doesn't fight fighters when he doesn't have a speed advantage( Zaheer Rahim, Joan Guzman, Mayweather, Martinez)

Looks like the girl in your avy is squirting-- or did she just now do that because she knows I noticed her? Probably the latter.

because Sergio is a moron, a hater and a guy that didn't accomplish **** until he was 35, Floyd should test him (get him off roids) and collect an easy check...no but seriously....I'll tell you why and don't get mad, just hear me out...when Sergio is in the gym, he looks in the mirror and he lifts his shoulder to his chin, raises the opposite hand to the other side and smiles....and then he backs up slowly, peppering a jab and the occasional straight left (which isn't really straight, it's more Ortiz-ish)...and here he is going into his shadow boxing routine and he thinks to himself, "I can fight like Floyd" (silly old man) and then he repositions himself and tries to do this...

@1:30




he ends up falling and twisting an ankle (not to mention being completely gassed after 30 seconds)...hence he hates Pac...but it could just be that he's human and he's entitled to like who he wants...I'm just saying. Perhaps I haven't seen the right videos/interviews cause he's always seemed respectful in my eyes, maybe something's changed recently

Because everyone who knows a little bit about boxing knows that floyd is the p4p and that duckqiao is the guy who used to get smashed but saved himself with moving up in weight to face drained cherry picked opposition and floyds leftovers.

99% of the trainers and boxers know that duckqiao is a coward who fights damaged goods from top rank at catch weight..they know that he doesn't have any boxing skills and that mayweather would **** mr congressman..but mr congressman said; me no take drug test me very humble man me fight left over

Because Sergio and his wacky promoter/manager Dibella is trying to "bait" Manny to fight that's why their doing a media circus for a "Big Payday" and publicity for his upcoming "circus act". And, knowing that taunting Sucker-Puncher Gayweather will not be a good idea if a Pacquiao fight will not push through because he will loose his option #2. They know that Sucker-Puncher Gayweather has just earned millions of dollars and he'll be doing another year round sabbathical tour.

because he thinks Floyd is better than Pac.
