Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Willing To Face Manny Pacquiao at 150

Awesome fight. If PAC wants to be known as a Henry Armstrong then let him prove it. Sergio earned that payday as well plus think of the adulation PAC would get if he won. Let's do it!!

Anybody who suggests that it is more appropriate for a large JMW to fight at 168 than it is for a supposed JMW champ to fight at 150..... is a total fkn idiot.

Go and stand in the corner you 3-post fool.

anybody that suggest sergio is not a full pldege mw is an idiot ..he was a paper champ at 154 too...

go jump off a cliff you no rep ******!

Bob Arum should listen to the hardcore boxing fans at least once and give us this fight a Manny Pacquiao vs Sergio Martinez match will be the equivalent of Muhammad Ali vs Joe Frazier or Muhammad Ali vs George Foreman the buzz is so good that you can't ignore it.

Sergio Martinez is a clean guy a world champion in two divisions. And he is the current Middleweight Ring Champion as well. Never cheated in a fight, overall good guy, and fights excitingly and you can make a reel out of his knockout wins and loss.

I mean the marketing of this fight alone is POSITIVE that it will be hard not to sale at all. I will bet $1000 that this fight will make at least 1.6 Million PPVs since American-Argentinians will buy this fight because they know that the person fighting inside the ring represents them honestly, proudly, and heroically as well. A true pride of Argentina and I'll bet many Hispanic viewers will tune in because they know Maravilla is not over-the-hill and he is a slippery knockout fighter who can trade toe-to-toe.

This fight is so great that Bob Arum should really consider opening the door for a match up between the two fighter. Heck, after this fight with Maravilla, I'll bet Manny Pacquiao fighting Timothy Bradley will do 1.2 Million PPV buys easy because every boxing fan and casual fan will know this is a rest fight or a rebuilding career fight.

As for Sergio Martinez he can only go up after the exposure a-la Antonio Margarito who is currently fighting an All Star Miguel Cotto in what will be another million breaking PPV in the making.

Come on, Bob make this fight happen.

its a great fight its a necessary fight for boxing,seriousley doubt manny takes the fight hell get ktfo even by a slightly faded sergio,sergio hits too hard,too,fast, theres nothing in pacs favor other than name power in that fight. ,it would be a great brawl while it lasts,sergio keeps his hands down which would be the only thing that makes it interesting ,but as soon as theres exchanges most likley pac would get put to sleep,pac has never faced anyone that dangerous and I seriousley doubt he will now, maybe if sergio loses ill beleive this fight comes off, till then its just wishful thinking for fight fans and sergio.id pay a hundred bux to see that fight within a reasonable time before sergio loses or fades, not afterwards as manny likes to accustom.

Sorry Sergio, no more catchweight. Go to 147lbs if you have the balls.

historically the best welterweight lineal champ fights the jr middle all these excuses by *******s to protect their champeen is non-sense, they like to brag and boast about 8 wt champion and bully everyone not named pac,ok lets see, lets put the rubber to the road and see, this is how boxing works,history should be honored and earned this twisting rules and time honored traditions to just keep pac from losing is just dishonest, and robs us of our money and of great fights,and inthe end of a fighters legacey, theres absolutley no reason to protect this pacyow guy his stock goes up win or lose with a MEANINGFUL FIGHT like this.

the MW king getting sonned by a WW who NEVER weighed in at the limit ....150 is a clown deal imo....give Sergio like 3 more pounds...153 or just go balls out and let him be 154....its the MW king and p4p top 3....this is no joe blow we talking 'bout....anyway, if Sergio weighs in at 150 Manny is gonna beat the dog **** outta him....hate to say it cuz Sergio is cool cat and I wanna see dude shine....but Pac gets all up in his ass if he's the slightest disabled......real talk!!!

It's sad that the middleweight champion of the world keeps calling out welterweights. Wheres the honor in that? I know he wants a payday, but he could have made six million dollars fighting Pirog.
