Comments Thread For: Photos/Weights: Martinez vs Barker, Lee vs Vera II

[BostonGuy]

The caption for Vera/Lee says that both guys weight 163lbs and it's at middleweight. Not to split hairs or anything but I thought the weight limit for mw was 160lbs...

Is this fight at a catchweight?

I think that they both agreed that if they came in at a certain weight it would be OK - so not a catchweight, per se, but basically the same thing. . . it's like saying "if you can't make weight, don't worry" - basically giving the green light to come in at the maximum allowed weight. . .
NOTE: their first fight they Lee weighed in at 158 and Vera weighed in at 162. . .

WAR LEE - who you got bostonguy?

I'm rooting for and picking Lee to win a comfortable decision. Both guys are in great shape and Lee seems extremely focused and determined to avenge this loss. Should be a great fight, it will be one of few fights I'll be nervous to watch...

btw thanks for the clarification...

I'm loving Sergio's hot pink panties.

the article says lee is a top rated middleweight? kinda puzzling

[LAFIRPO]

Sergio weighed in at 158. A true middleweight doesn't weigh in at 158. For all those morons who say "Sergio is huge! He's really a super middleweight!", nope, he's really a blown up 154 pounder. A true middleweight would've come in at the limit of 160.

Imo this is the first time Martinez has fought someone better looking than him

Don't worry, after the fight, Barker's mug is going to be pretty rough looking.

I dont see how Martinez feels he can move down to 150 Lets Go Sergio whip this fools ass......

No way, where can he find an extra 8lbs at. To hell with fighting Pac at 150 Martinez would just become another hot mess at the end of the night.

I like Lee but i'm not sure he can win this. I'm just not impressed with the guy. He's slow, his defense is severely lacking, and he relies on that right hook a bit too much. I hear up at Kronk he runs things but sparring and handling fools in training is a different ballpark then when you step in the ring for the real thing. I want to say Lee wins this but my head won't let me.
