Wow, a welter weight now hehe. nice.

[southpaw!!]

I agree with TEAM MARTINEZ...Pacquiao gets no props for beating Timothy Bradley.

why's that? i thought pac was ducking african american boxers? i thought he never fought young fighters?

now if he fights a young african american... he gets no credit?

silly how the boxing world works haha

[southpaw!!]

Are you CRAZY???? Shane Mosley easily gets KO'd by Martinez. It will be worse than the Pac fight and Mayweather fight.

and darren barker was also a 18/1 underdog that was supposed to get spanked.

im sure mosley would be less than a 18/1 underdog

[southpaw!!]

if pac-bradley is a bob arum fight, then martinez-barker is a dibella fight...the **** is lewkowicz talking about? nobody demanded martinez to fight barker except dibella so that's completely his fight.

#teammartinez.... p4p king... of the double standard

While the recognized best middleweight in the world, Sergio ‘Maravilla’ Martinez, continued his winning ways this past Saturday night at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, his recent victory has brought up some criticisms from some boxing insiders. Martinez started off slow against London's Darren Barker before picking up the pace late in the fight on his way to an 11th round TKO.

the same way ortiz, mosley, corley, and judah wobbled floyd, except martinez cracks a lot harder... i guess

I think if Shane could have when he did. He would have put Floyd out but Floyd hung on for dear life and got back into the fight. Pac fight to me looked fixed. Shane ran and didn't try to fight back AT ALL. Clottey looked fixed too. shane Mosley has never looked good at 154 or won against any fighter. With exception to Vargas.

So earlier in this thread you say Mosley was shot by the time he got to Pacquiao, then you say it was fixed. Meanwhile, even earlier in the thread you said all ppl do is *****, complain nag etc. You my friend are a hypocrite, and it happens all inside this single thread.

I agree a 100% boxing and its fans have become B!tches. What if Martinez would have lost? Would they say Martinez was overrated after his last performances? It's obvious Darren Barker came to fight and not just get KO'd. Atleast dude didn't run like Mosley. Just because a guy is a no name opponent that makes him weak? Look at all these divas in the sport. No one is even giving Barker any props for making it hard for Sergio Martinez and no one is giving Martinez credit for cracking Barker's defense and getting the TKO. Sergio nose was broken and he still pulled it off. Just because there are so many ready made fights being organized don't mean that everyone of them have to be easy. I blame this on Bob Arum who makes his stars shine in fights against over matched opponents so they can look good. Boxing used to be about challenges and competition. No name fighters made a name for themselves on the regular. Why is it so hard to believe that Barker held his own? Ridiculous.

I agree man, good post.

First let me say Barker came to fight,and had a good game plan to win..But you bring up Mosley(which I believe is a shot at Pac)and he also came to win..If Mosley did not come to win against Pac he did not come to win against May..Mosley was a shell of his former self is what the problem was..You talk about boxing being about challenges,yet both the top dogs have not really taken any challenges imo..Ortiz,come on bro that fight was written in stone far before the first bell was rung..JMM that's not a good look..But ya know what they came to win..As did Cotto and Marga's and once again Hatton..They were just out matched..If Pac fights Bradley he would be taking on a very live opponent,who is for sure coming to win and has the tools to win..Would you give Pac credit for taking a Bradley fight??Did you give May credit for the Ortiz fight??I don't see anything wrong with boxing except the two best in the sport are both divas..I don't give a damn about testing who ask for it or who did not want to do it,or who does not like who's promoter..Both these guys should have fought by now plain and simple,and that's whats ruining boxing right now..I can't lie Bradley is another one messing boxing up,I understand it's a business but when fights that should go down don't it hurts the sport from gaining new fans..

BTW I'm one who believes Pac should have been fought Martinez tbh,win lose or draw I believe Pac wins for taking that fight/challenge..

No Romey, Pacquiao KNEW that " Mosley was a shell of his former self ", as did everybody else..... that is why Manny finally agreed to fight Shane.....THAT IS THE PROBLEM !!
